Sections 64.611(k) and 64.615(c) also each state that the Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the compliance date and revising the paragraphs.

Final rule. AGENCY: ACTION: The Surface Transportation Board (STB or Board) adopts a final rule that requires Class I carriers to directly bill the shipper for demurrage when the shipper and warehouseman agree to that arrangement and so notify the rail carrier. SUMMARY: DATES: This rule is effective on June 20, 2020. Requests for information or questions regarding this final rule should reference Docket No. EP 759, and be submitted either via e-filing or in writing addressed to Chief, Section of Administration, Office of Proceedings, Surface Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW, Washington, DC 20423–0001. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sarah Fancher at (202) 245–0355. Assistance for the hearing impaired is available through the Federal Relay Service at (800) 877–8339. ADDRESSES: On October 7, 2019, the Board issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to propose changes to its existing demurrage regulations to address several issues regarding carriers’ demurrage billing practices. Demurrage Billing Requirements (NPRM), EP 759 (STB served Oct. 7, 2019).1 Demurrage is subject to Board regulation under 49 U.S.C. 10702, which requires railroads to establish reasonable rates and transportation-related rules and practices, and under 49 U.S.C. 10746, which requires railroads to compute demurrage charges, and establish rules related to those charges, in a way that will fulfill the national needs related to freight car use and distribution and maintenance of an adequate car supply.2 Demurrage is a charge that serves principally as an incentive to prevent undue car detention and thereby encourage the efficient use of rail cars in the rail network, while also providing compensation to rail carriers for the expense incurred when rail cars are SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 1 The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register, 84 FR 55109 (Oct. 15, 2019). 2 In Demurrage Liability, EP 707, slip op. at 15– 16 (STB served Apr. 11, 2014), the Board clarified that private car storage is included in the definition of demurrage for purposes of the demurrage regulations established in that decision. The Board uses the same definition of demurrage in this decision. PO 00000 Frm 00024 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 unduly detained beyond a specified period of time (i.e., ‘‘free time’’) for loading and unloading. See Pa. R.R. v. Kittaning Iron & Steel Mfg. Co., 253 U.S. 319, 323 (1920) (‘‘The purpose of demurrage charges is to promote car efficiency by penalizing undue detention of cars.’’); 49 CFR 1333.1; see also 49 CFR pt. 1201, category 106. In the simplest demurrage case, a railroad assesses demurrage on the consignor (the shipper of the goods) for delays in loading cars at origin and on the consignee (the receiver of the goods) for delays in unloading cars and returning them to the rail carrier at destination.3 Demurrage, however, can also involve third-party intermediaries, commonly known as warehousemen or terminal operators, that accept freight cars for loading and unloading but have no property interest in the freight being transported.4 Warehousemen do not typically own the property being shipped (although, by accepting the cars, they can be in a position to facilitate or impede car supply). In response to the NPRM, the Board received a significant number of comments from stakeholders.5 This 3 As the Board noted in Demurrage Liability, EP 707, slip op. at 2 n.2, the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended by the ICC Termination Act of 1995 (ICCTA), Public Law 104–88, 109 Stat. 803 (1995), does not define ‘‘consignor’’ or ‘‘consignee,’’ though both terms are commonly used in the demurrage context. Black’s Law Dictionary defines ‘‘consignor’’ as ‘‘[o]ne who dispatches goods to another on consignment,’’ and ‘‘consignee’’ ‘‘as [o]ne to whom goods are consigned.’’ Demurrage Liability, EP 707, slip op. at 2 n.2 (citing Black’s Law Dictionary 327 (8th ed. 2004)). The Federal Bills of Lading Act defines these terms in a similar manner. Demurrage Liability, EP 707, slip op. at 2 n.2 (citing 49 U.S.C. 80101(1) & (2)). For purposes of this decision, the term ‘‘shipper’’ will sometimes be used to refer to either consignors or consignees. 4 This decision uses the terms ‘‘warehousemen’’ and ‘‘third-party intermediaries’’ to refer to these entities. 5 The Board received comments and replies from the following: American Chemistry Council; American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA); American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM); American Iron and Steel Institute; American Short Line and Regional Railroad Association (ASLRRA); ArcelorMittal USA LLC (AM); Association of American Railroads (AAR); Barilla America, Inc.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In document FCC 19-11, published at 84 FR 
8457, March 8, 2019, the Commission adopted Sec. Sec.  64.611(k) and 
64.615(c), which advised that compliance with Sec. Sec.  64.611(j)(2) 
and 64.615(a)(3) and (5), respectively, was not required until OMB 
approval was obtained. Sections 64.611(k) and 64.615(c) also each state 
that the Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register 
announcing the compliance date and revising the paragraphs. In a 
document, published at 85 FR 9392, February 19, 2020, the Commission 
announced OMB approval for Sec. Sec.  [thinsp]64.611(j)(2) and 
64.615(a)(3) and (5) and set the compliance date. The document also 
states it would remove Sec. Sec.  [thinsp]64.611(k) and 64.615(c) of 
the Commission's rules. As the compliance date for Sec. Sec.  
64.611(j)(2) and 64.615(a)(3) and (5) is established, Sec. Sec.  
64.611(k) and 64.615(c) are no longer necessary. Accordingly, in this 
document the Commission removes Sec. Sec.  64.611(k) and 64.615(c) from 
the Commission's rules.
