Petition of COSCO Container Lines
Company Limited for an Exemption
From Commission Regulations; Notice
of Filing and Request for Comments
This is to provide notice of filing and
to invite comments on or before
February 12, 2016, with regard to the
Petition described below.
COSCO Container Lines Company
Limited (‘‘COSCON’’) (Petitioner), has
petitioned the Commission pursuant to
46 CFR 502.76 of the Commission’s
Rules of Practice and Procedure, for an
exemption from the Commission’s rules
requiring individual service contract
amendments, 46 CFR 530.10.
Specifically, Petitioner explains that
‘‘[o]n or about March 1, 2016, COSCON
will acquire by time charter the
containerships and certain other assets
of China Shipping Container Lines Co.
(‘‘China Shipping’’)’’ and, as such,
requests that the Commission permit the
submission of a ‘‘universal notice to the
Commission and to the service contract
parties’’ instead of filing an amendment
for each of the seven hundred (700)
service contracts that will be assigned to
COSCON. In addition COSCON
proposes to send electronic notice to
each shipper counter party. Because
China Shipping tariffs will be taken over
by COSCON and renumbered and
republished, COSCON also seeks a
waiver to avoid amending each contract
with the new tariff number, by
publishing a notice of the change in the
existing China Shipping and COSCON
tariffs.
The Petition in its entirety is posted
on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.fmc.gov/p1-16. Comments
filed in response to this Petition will be
posted on the Commission’s Web site at
this location.
In order for the Commission to make
a thorough evaluation of the Petition,
interested persons are requested to
submit views or arguments in reply to
the Petition no later than February 12,
2016. Commenters must send an
original and 5 copies to the Secretary,
Federal Maritime Commission, 800
North Capitol Street NW., Washington,
DC 20573–0001, and be served on
Petitioner’s counsel, Robert B.
Yoshitomi, or Eric C. Jeffrey, Nixon
Peabody LLP, 799 9th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20001. A PDF copy of
the reply must also be sent as an
attachment to Secretary@fmc.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
In
compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA
has submitted the following proposed
collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
PHS Guideline on Infectious Disease
Issues in Xenotransplantation
OMB Control Number 0910–0456—
Extension
The statutory authority to collect this
information is provided under sections
351 and 361 of the PHS Act (42 U.S.C.
262 and 264) and the provisions of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
that apply to drugs (21 U.S.C. 301 et
seq.). The PHS guideline recommends
procedures to diminish the risk of
transmission of infectious agents to the
xenotransplantation product recipient
and to the general public. The PHS
guideline is intended to address public
health issues raised by
xenotransplantation, through
identification of general principles of
prevention and control of infectious
diseases associated with
xenotransplantation that may pose a
hazard to the public health. The
collection of information described in
this guideline is intended to provide
general guidance on the following
topics: (1) The development of
xenotransplantation clinical protocols;
(2) the preparation of submissions to
FDA; and (3) the conduct of
xenotransplantation clinical trials. Also,
the collection of information will help
ensure that the sponsor maintains
important information in a crossreferenced system that links the relevant
records of the xenotransplantation
product recipient, xenotransplantation
product, source animal(s), animal
procurement center, and significant
nosocomial exposures. The PHS
guideline describes an occupational
health service program for the
protection of health care workers
involved in xenotransplantation

procedures, caring for
xenotransplantation product recipients,
and performing associated laboratory
testing. The PHS guideline is intended
to protect the public health and to help
ensure the safety of using
xenotransplantation products in
humans by preventing the introduction,
transmission, and spread of infectious
diseases associated with
xenotransplantation.
The PHS guideline also recommends
that certain specimens and records be
maintained for 50 years beyond the date
of the xenotransplantation. These
include: (1) Records linking each
xenotransplantation product recipient
with relevant health records of the
source animal, herd or colony, and the
specific organ, tissue, or cell type
included in or used in the manufacture
of the product (section 3.2.7.1); (2)
aliquots of serum samples from
randomly selected animal and specific
disease investigations (section 3.4.3.1);
(3) source animal biological specimens
designated for PHS use (section 3.7.1);
animal health records (section 3.7.2),
including necropsy results (section
3.6.4); and (4) recipients’ biological
specimens (section 4.1.2). The retention
period is intended to assist health care
practitioners and officials in
surveillance and in tracking the source
of an infection, disease, or illness that
might emerge in the recipient, the
source animal, or the animal herd or
colony after a xenotransplantation.
The recommendation for maintaining
records for 50 years is based on clinical
experience with several human viruses
that have presented problems in human
to human transplantation and are
therefore thought to share certain
characteristics with viruses that may
pose potential risks in
xenotransplantation. These
characteristics include long latency
periods and the ability to establish
persistent infections. Several also share
the possibility of transmission among
individuals through intimate contact
with human body fluids. Human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and
human T-lymphotropic virus are human
retroviruses. Retroviruses contain
ribonucleic acid that is reversetranscribed into deoxyribonucleic acid
(DNA) using an enzyme provided by the
virus and the human cell machinery.
That viral DNA can then be integrated
into the human cellular DNA. Both
viruses establish persistent infections
and have long latency periods before the
onset of disease; 10 years and 40 to 60
years, respectively. The human hepatitis
viruses are not retroviruses, but several
share with HIV the characteristic that
they can be transmitted through body
