Claimant’s claim took place between
Pakistan and New York, USA via ocean
vessels NYK Cosmos, Asir, and
Fowairet, from April 24, 2009, May 23,
2009 and June 5, 2009.’’ Complainant
asserts that ‘‘shipments were to be
released only upon presentation by
Respondents of Original endorsed
Negotiable Bills of Lading. The payment
terms were on a CAD (Cash Against
Documents) basis.’’ Complainant alleges
that the terms of the Bill of Lading were
‘‘violated by Respondents when
Respondents released the goods without
obtaining the endorsed Bill of Lading.’’
As a result, Complainant alleges that
Respondents violated: ‘‘U.S. Code Title
46 Sec. 1 (a), Sec 30701(4), 30701(6),
30701(7), 30701(8), Sec 41102(b),
41102(c) (Shipping Act Sec 10(a)(1) and
10(d)(1)), 41301 (sec 11(a) of the
Shipping Act), 41302, 41303, 41304,
41305, 41309, 305; U.S. Code 49 Sec
80101, 80102, 80103, 80104, 80110,
80111, 80116, 80106.’’
Complainant asserts that it has
suffered damages in the sum of
‘‘$290,424.91, plus interst/mark-up, plus
US$ 7500.00’’, for attorney fees and
other expenses. Complainant requests
that the Commission ‘‘investigate the
matter’’; that Respondents be required to
answer the charges made by
Complainant; that Respondents be
ordered to pay reparations of
$290,424.91 with interest, costs and
attorney’s fees; and order any such other
and further relief as the Commission
deems just and proper.
This proceeding has been assigned to
the Office of Administrative Law Judges.
Hearing in this matter, if any is held,
shall commence within the time
limitations prescribed in 46 CFR 502.61,
and only after consideration has been
given by the parties and the presiding
officer to the use of alternative forms of
dispute resolution. The hearing shall
include oral testimony and crossexamination in the discretion of the
presiding officer only upon proper
showing that there are genuine issues of
material fact that cannot be resolved on
the basis of sworn statements, affidavits,
depositions, or other documents or that
the nature of the matter in issue is such
that an oral hearing and crossexamination are necessary for the
development of an adequate record.
Pursuant to the further terms of 46
CFR 502.61, the initial decision of the
presiding officer in this proceeding shall
be issued by July 25, 2011 and the final
decision of the Commission shall be
issued by November 22, 2011.

Secretary.

Proposed Project
National Public Health Performance
Standards Program Local Public Health
Governance Assessment (OMB 0920–
0580 exp. 8/31/2010)—Extension—
Office of State, Tribal, Local and
Territorial Support (OSTLTS), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Office of State, Tribal, Local and
Territorial Support is proposing to
extend the formal, voluntary data
collection that assesses the capacity of
local boards of health to deliver the
essential services of public health.
Electronic data submission will be used
when local boards of health complete
the public health assessment.
A three-year approval is being sought
with the current data collection
instrument. The data collection
instrument has been valuable in
assessing performance and capacity and
identifying areas for improvement.
From 1998–2002, the CDC National
Public Health Performance Standards
Program convened workgroups with the
National Association of County and City
Health Officials (NACCHO), The
Association of State and Territorial
Health Officials (ASTHO), the National
Association of Local Boards of Health
(NALBOH), the American Public Health
Association (APHA), and the Public
Health Foundation (PHF) to develop
performance standards for public health
systems based on the essential services
of public health. In 2005, CDC
reconvened workgroups with these
same organizations to revise the data
collection instruments, in order to
ensure the standards remain current and
improve user friendliness. There is no
cost to the respondent, other than their
time.
The estimated annualized burden
hours are 875.

that the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) renew, under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
AHRQ’s Generic Clearance to collect
information from users of work products
and services initiated by the John M.
Eisenberg Clinical Decisions and
Communications Science Center
(Eisenberg Center).
AHRQ is the lead agency charged
with supporting research designed to
improve the quality of healthcare,
reduce its cost, improve patient safety,
decrease medical errors, and broaden
access to essential services. See 42
U.S.C. 299.
AHRQ’s Eisenberg Center is an
innovative effort aimed at improving
communication of findings to a variety
of audiences (‘‘customers’’), including
consumers, clinicians, and health care
policy makers. The Eisenberg Center
compiles research results into a variety
of useful formats for customer
stakeholders. The Eisenberg Center also
conducts its own program of research
into effective communication of
research findings in order to improve
the usability and rapid incorporation of
findings into medical practice. The
Eisenberg Center is one of three
components of AHRQ’s Effective Health
Care Program, see 42 U.S.C. 299b–7. For
the period 2005 until September 2008,
the Eisenberg Center was operated
through a contractual arrangement with
the Oregon Health and Science
University (OHSU), Department of
Medicine, located in Portland, Oregon.
In September 2008, the contract for
operation of the Eisenberg Center was
awarded to Baylor College of Medicine
(BCM), located in Houston Texas.
The collections proposed under this
clearance include activities to assist in
the development of materials to be
disseminated through the Eisenberg
Center and to provide feedback to
AHRQ on the extent to which these
products meet customer needs. These
materials include Summary Guides that
summarize and translate the findings of
comparative effectiveness reviews (CER)
and research reports for purposes of
summarizing research findings for
various decision-making audiences,
such as consumers, clinicians, or
policymakers. The guides are designed
to help these decision makers use
research evidence to maximize the
benefits of health care, minimize harm,
and optimize the use of health care
resources. In addition, each year of the
project the Eisenberg Center will
develop one computerized, interactive
decision aid for those clinical problems
identified from selected CERs. The
intent is for the decision aid to increase
the patient/consumer’s knowledge of
PO 00000

the health condition, options, and risk/
benefits, lead to greater assurance in
making a decision, increase the
congruence between values and choices,
and enhance involvement in the
decision making process. Information
collections conducted under this
generic clearance are not required by
regulation and will not be used to
regulate or sanction customers. Surveys
will be entirely voluntary, and
information provided by respondents
will be combined and summarized so
that no individually identifiable
information will be released. The
Eisenberg Center will produce from 17
to a maximum of 33 Summary Guides
per audience (i.e., clinician,
policymaker, consumer) per year,
depending on the information needed
for each product with each audience.
In accordance with OMB guidelines
for generic clearances for voluntary
customer surveys and Executive Order
12862, AHRQ has established an
independent review process to assure
the development, implementation, and
analysis of high quality customer
surveys within AHRQ. Specifically,
AHRQ understands that each activity
conducted must be submitted to OMB
with a supporting statement and
accompanying instruments. Information
collection may not proceed until
approved by OMB.
Method of Collection
Information collections conducted
under this clearance will be collected
via the following methods:
• Focus Groups. Focus groups may
include clinical professionals, patients
or other health care consumers, or
health policy makers. They will be used
to provide input regarding the needs for
products and for the development of
Decision Aids and Summary Guides.
Focus groups may also be used to test
draft products to determine if intended
information and messages are being
delivered through products that are
produced and disseminated through the
Eisenberg Center.
• In-person or Telephone Interviews.
Interviews will be conducted with
individuals from one or more of the
three groups identified above. The
purpose of these interviews is to (1) to
provide input regarding the
development of Decision Aids and
Summary Guides, (2) to determine if
intended information and messages are
being delivered effectively through
products that are produced and
disseminated through the Eisenberg
Center, and (3) to engage the subject in
cognitive testing to (a) determine if
changes in topical knowledge levels can
be identified following exposure to
