DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Domestic Personal Property Rate Solicitation--Implementation of 
Proposed Change

AGENCY: Military Traffic Management Command, DoD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice provides notification of MTMC's intent to 
eliminate the additional shipment valuation charges shown as Items 
130a/130b in the Domestic Personal Property Rate Solicitation (D-3) or 
reissues thereof.
    Acting on the recommendation of a Government Accounting Office 
(GAO) study, MTMC intends to eliminate the 64 cents per $100 valuation 
charge, applicable to all points in CONUS, as shown as Item 130a, and 
the additional 64 cents per $100 valuation charge on shipments to or 
from Alaska, shown as Item 130b in the Domestic Personal Property Rate 
Solicitation (D-3), and reissues thereof. GAO believes that carriers 
now have the claims experience needed under increased liability to 
adjust their rates to compensate for any increased liability costs, 
thus making further compensary payments unjustified. The above noted 
shipment valuation charges will cease to apply on November 1, 1995, 
effective with the Domestic Winter rate cycle.

ADDRESSES: Commander, Military Traffic Management Command, ATTN: MTOP-
T-NP, 5611 Columbia Pike, Falls Church, VA 22041-5050.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms. Ann Peterson, [phone].

DATES: The above shipment valuation charges will cease to apply on 
November 1, 1995.

Army Federal Register Liaison Officer.
