FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION
46 CFR Part 552
[Docket No. 94-07]
Financial Reporting Requirements and Rate of Return Methodology
in the Domestic Offshore Trades
AGENCY: Federal Maritime Commission.
ACTION: Notice of Proposed Rule; Enlargement of Time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Commission is extending the time for reply comments in
regard to its proposed rule on financial reporting requirements and
rate of return methodology in the domestic offshore trades. The
Commission also is permitting NPR, Inc., a new participant in the
domestic offshore trades, to comment generally on the proposed rule.
DATES: Comments due January 6, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Send comments (original and fifteen copies) to: Joseph C.
Polking, Secretary, Federal Maritime Commission, 800 North Capitol
Street NW., Washington, DC 20573-0001, (202) 523-5725.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Richard R. Speigel, Bureau of Trade Monitoring and Analysis, Federal
Maritime Commission, 800 North Capitol Street NW., Washington, DC
20573-0001, (202) 523-5845
C. Douglass Miller, Office of the General Counsel, Federal Maritime
Commission, 800 North Capitol Street NW., Washington, DC 20573-0001,
(202) 523-5740
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission, by notice published November
4, 1994, 59 FR 55232, invited reply comments on four specific issues
raised in this proceeding.
Counsel for NPR, Inc. now seeks an extension of time in this
proceeding from December 5, 1994, to January 27, 1995, to submit reply
comments and ``such further comments on the issues as the Commission is
required to consider under the terms of the Administrative Procedures
Act.'' The upshot of this request is that NPR seeks to comment on any
issue raised by the proposed rule, not just the issues on which the
Commission specifically sought replies. The basis for the request is
that NPR has only recently purchased the assets of Puerto Rico Maritime
Shipping Authority, a major participant in a domestic offshore trade,
and has not had a prior opportunity to comment on the proposed rules.
The Commission has determined to grant the request in part,
extending the reply comment date to January 6, 1995. Additionally,
since NPR, Inc. has not had a prior opportunity to comment on the
proposed rule, its comments will not be required to be limited to the
specific issues on which replies are sought.
By the Commission.
Joseph C. Polking,
Secretary.
