Download as PDF 44980 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 100 / Wednesday, May 22, 2024 / Notices khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES authorized to take certain actions to encourage remediation of those conditions. Specifically, the Commission may take actions ‘‘against any foreign carrier that is a contributing cause, or whose government is a contributing cause, to those conditions.’’ 46 U.S.C. 42304(a). Potential actions include imposing limits and/or fees on Canadian-flagged vessels that visit U.S. ports and requesting that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Coast Guard refuse clearance and deny entry of such vessels into the U.S., or detain such vessels. See 46 U.S.C. 42304, 42305. Any such fees could be substantial, as they are authorized by law at a level up to $2,559,636 per voyage. See 46 CFR 506.4. Under section 42304(b), the Commission ‘‘may consult with, seek the cooperation of, or make recommendations as to other appropriate agencies of the United States government’’ prior to taking such action. When the Commission initiates a Chapter 423 investigation, it will notify the U.S. Secretary of State and may request that the Secretary ‘‘seek resolution of the matter through diplomatic channels.’’ 46 CFR 555.7. Before any action is taken under 46 U.S.C. 42304 or 42305, the relevant determination is submitted for Presidential review, within 10 days of receipt, under 46 U.S.C. 42306. At this initial stage of the investigation, the Commission will focus on providing a route for interested parties, including the Government of Canada, as well as Canadian carriers operating in the Great Lakes trade, to provide information, perspectives, and proposed solutions. III. Investigation and Initial Request for Comments The Commission has determined that the above situation meets the threshold requirements for consideration under the relevant statutory and regulatory authority. See 46 U.S.C. 42302; 46 CFR 555.3, 555.5. The Commission has therefore determined to initiate an investigation into whether the situation has created conditions that adversely affect the operations of United States carriers as described above. See 46 U.S.C. 42302; 46 CFR 555.5, 555.6. To that end, the Commission has designated the General Counsel to lead an investigation into the conditions and to prepare a report on the investigation’s findings and recommendations for Commission consideration. Interested persons are requested to submit written comments containing arguments, experiences, and/or data relevant to the above-described VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:06 May 21, 2024 Jkt 262001 conditions, with a particular focus on the situation of vessels that will become subject to the Canadian regulation described above in September 2024. It would be especially helpful for the agency to receive comments addressing what options exist for carriers to seek an exemption from the Canadian regulations going into effect in September 2024, and whether any such processes differ based on whether the carrier is a U.S. carrier or a Canadian carrier. The Commission’s jurisdiction under 46 U.S.C. 42302 is broad, and the agency welcomes comments not only from the Government of Canada, but also from container shipping interests, bulk cargo interests, vessel owners, individuals and groups with relevant information on commercial and environmental considerations, and anyone else with relevant information or perspectives on this matter. As the Commission proceeds with this investigation, it may determine to request additional comment or gather information through other means as authorized under 46 U.S.C. 42303 and 46 CFR 555.5, 555.6. By the Commission. Dated: May 16, 2024. David Eng, Secretary.
