The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a

number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)

DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before September 21,
2015. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it

Needs and Uses: On June 18, 2015,
the Commission adopted a Report and
Order establishing the Numbering
Authorization Application process,
which allows interconnected VoIP
providers to apply for a blanket
authorization from the FCC that, once
granted, will allow them to demonstrate
that they have the authority to provide
service in specific areas, thus enabling
them to request numbers directly from
the Numbering Administrators. This
collection covers the information and

certifications that applicants must
submit in order to comply with the
Numbering Authorization Application
process. The data, information, and
documents acquired through this
collection will allow interconnected
VoIP providers to obtain numbers with
minimal burden or delay while also
preventing providers from obtaining
numbers without first demonstrating
that they can deploy and properly
utilize such resources. This information
will also help the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
protect against number exhaust while
promoting competitive neutrality among
traditional telecommunications carriers
and interconnected VoIP providers by
allowing both entities to obtain numbers
directly from the Numbering
Administrators. It will further help the
FCC to maintain efficient utilization of
numbering resources and ensure that
telephone numbers are not being
stranded.

FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
Controlled Carriers Under the Shipping
Act of 1984
Federal Maritime Commission.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Federal Maritime
Commission is publishing an updated
list of controlled carriers, i.e., ocean
common carriers operating in U.S.foreign trades that are owned or
controlled by foreign governments. Such
carriers are subject to special regulatory
oversight by the Commission under the
Shipping Act of 1984.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Tyler J. Wood, General Counsel, Federal
Maritime Commission, 800 North
Capitol Street NW., Washington, DC
20573, (202) 523–5740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Federal Maritime Commission is
publishing an updated list of controlled
carriers. Section 3(8) of the Shipping
Act of 1984 (46 U.S.C. 40102(8)), defines
a ‘‘controlled carrier’’ as an ocean
common carrier that is, or whose
operating assets are, directly or
indirectly, owned or controlled by a
government, with ownership or control
by a government being described in the
statute.
As required by the Shipping Act,
controlled carriers are subject to special
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
43427
oversight by the Commission. Section
9(a) of the Shipping Act (46 U.S.C.
40701(b)), states that the Commission, at
any time after notice and opportunity
for a hearing, may prohibit the
publication or use of a rate, charge,
classification, rule, or regulation that a
controlled carrier has failed to
demonstrate is just and reasonable.
Congress enacted these protections to
ensure that controlled carries, whose
marketplace decision-making can be
influenced by foreign governmental
priorities or by their access to nonmarket sources of capital, do not engage
in unreasonable below-market pricing
practices which could disrupt trade or
harm privately-owned shipping
companies.
The controlled carrier list is not a
comprehensive list of foreign-owned or
-controlled ships or ship owners; rather,
it is only a list of ocean common carriers
that are controlled by governments. See
46 U.S.C. 40102(8). Thus, tramp
operators and other non-common
carriers are not included, nor are nonvessel-operating common carriers,
regardless of their ownership or control.
Since the last publication of this list
on August 22, 2012 (77 FR 51801), the
Commission has newly classified two
ocean common carriers as controlled
carriers, CNAN Nord SPA (‘‘CNAN’’)
and United Arab Shipping Company
(S.A.G.) (‘‘UASC’’).
Pursuant to 46 CFR 501.23, CNAN
was classified as a controlled carrier on
September 23, 2014.
Pursuant to 46 CFR 501.23 and 565.4,
UASC notified the Commission of its
change in majority ownership by the
State of Qatar on June 18, 2014, and
after review, the Commission classified
UASC as a controlled carrier on July 6,
2015.
It is requested that any other
information regarding possible
omissions or inaccuracies in this list be
provided to the Commission’s Office of
General Counsel. See 46 CFR 501.23.
The amended list of currently classified
controlled carriers and their
corresponding Commission-issued
Registered Persons Index numbers is set
forth below:
(1) American President Lines, Ltd.
and APL Co. Pte. Ltd. (RPI No.
000240)—Republic of Singapore;
(2) COSCO Container Lines Company,

FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
Controlled Carriers Under the Shipping Act of 1984
AGENCY: Federal Maritime Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Maritime Commission is publishing an updated list
of controlled carriers, i.e., ocean common carriers operating in U.S.-
foreign trades that are owned or controlled by foreign governments.
Such carriers are subject to special regulatory oversight by the
Commission under the Shipping Act of 1984.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tyler J. Wood, General Counsel,
Federal Maritime Commission, 800 North Capitol Street NW., Washington,
DC 20573, (202) 523-5740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Maritime Commission is
publishing an updated list of controlled carriers. Section 3(8) of the
Shipping Act of 1984 (46 U.S.C. 40102(8)), defines a ``controlled
carrier'' as an ocean common carrier that is, or whose operating assets
are, directly or indirectly, owned or controlled by a government, with
ownership or control by a government being described in the statute.
As required by the Shipping Act, controlled carriers are subject to
special oversight by the Commission. Section 9(a) of the Shipping Act
(46 U.S.C. 40701(b)), states that the Commission, at any time after
notice and opportunity for a hearing, may prohibit the publication or
use of a rate, charge, classification, rule, or regulation that a
controlled carrier has failed to demonstrate is just and reasonable.
Congress enacted these protections to ensure that controlled
carries, whose marketplace decision-making can be influenced by foreign
governmental priorities or by their access to non-market sources of
capital, do not engage in unreasonable below-market pricing practices
which could disrupt trade or harm privately-owned shipping companies.
The controlled carrier list is not a comprehensive list of foreign-
owned or -controlled ships or ship owners; rather, it is only a list of
ocean common carriers that are controlled by governments. See 46 U.S.C.
40102(8). Thus, tramp operators and other non-common carriers are not
included, nor are non-vessel-operating common carriers, regardless of
their ownership or control.
Since the last publication of this list on August 22, 2012 (77 FR
51801), the Commission has newly classified two ocean common carriers
as controlled carriers, CNAN Nord SPA (``CNAN'') and United Arab
Shipping Company (S.A.G.) (``UASC'').
Pursuant to 46 CFR 501.23, CNAN was classified as a controlled
carrier on September 23, 2014.
Pursuant to 46 CFR 501.23 and 565.4, UASC notified the Commission
of its change in majority ownership by the State of Qatar on June 18,
2014, and after review, the Commission classified UASC as a controlled
carrier on July 6, 2015.
It is requested that any other information regarding possible
omissions or inaccuracies in this list be provided to the Commission's
Office of General Counsel. See 46 CFR 501.23. The amended list of
currently classified controlled carriers and their corresponding
Commission-issued Registered Persons Index numbers is set forth below:

000240)--Republic of Singapore;
