Summary of Item Submitted for OMB Review

46 CFR Part 582

FMC requests an extension of clearance for 46 CFR part 582, which

implements section 10(b)(2) of the Shipping Act of 1984 provisions. The

Act provides that no common carrier by water may rebate, refund, or

remit any portion of its rates except in accordance with its tariffs or

service contracts. Section 15(b) of the Act requires the chief

executive officer of each common carrier and certain other persons

designated by the Commission to file a periodic written certification

that anti-rebating policies have been implemented. The Commission

estimates that approximately 2100 NVOCCs, 500 VOCCs and 1800 freight

forwarders will file anti-rebate certifications on each even-numbered

year. Annual respondent burden for complying with the regulation is

2,200 manhours (\1/2\ hour per response). Estimated annual cost to the

Federal Government is $5,700; estimated annual cost to respondents is

$59,400.

Joseph C. Polking,

Secretary.
