SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Request for Comments
Pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13),
the Commission invites the general public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed information collections. On April 29, 2021, the
Commission published a notice and request for comments in the Federal
Register (86 FR 22666) regarding the agency's request for continued
approval from OMB for information collections as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The Commission received no comments on
the request for extension of OMB clearance. The Commission has
submitted the described information collection to OMB for approval.
In response to this notice, comments and suggestions should address
one or more of the following points: (1) The necessity and utility of
the proposed information collection for the proper performance of the
agency's functions; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways
to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology to minimize the information collection
burden.

Title: 46 CFR part 565--Controlled Carriers.
OMB Approval Number: 3072-0060 (Expires September 30, 2021).
Abstract: 46 U.S.C. 40701-40706 requires that the Commission
monitor the practices of controlled carriers to ensure that they do not
maintain rates or charges in their tariffs and service contracts that
are below a level that is just and reasonable; nor establish, maintain
or enforce unjust or unreasonable classifications, rules or regulations
in those tariffs or service contracts which result or are likely to
result in the carriage or handling of cargo at rates or charges that
are below a just and reasonable level. 46 CFR part 565 establishes the
method by which the Commission determines whether a particular ocean
common carrier is a controlled carrier subject to 46 U.S.C. 40701-40706
. When a government acquires a controlling interest in an ocean common
carrier, or when a controlled carrier newly enters a United States
trade, the Commission's rules require that such a carrier notify the
Commission of these events.
Current Actions: There are no changes to this information
collection, and it is being submitted for extension purposes only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The Commission uses these notifications in order to
effectively discharge its statutory duty to determine whether a
particular ocean common carrier is a controlled carrier and therefore
subject to the requirements of 46 U.S.C. 40701-40706.
Frequency: The submission of notifications from carriers is not
assigned to a specific time frame by the Commission; they are submitted
as circumstances warrant.
Type of Respondents: Ocean common carriers when a majority portion
of the carrier becomes owned or controlled by a government, or when a
controlled carrier newly begins operation in any United States trade.
Number of Annual Respondents: Based on filings over the past three
years, the Commission estimates one respondent annually.
Estimated Time per Response: The estimated time for each
notification is 2 hours.
Total Annual Burden: For purposes of calculating total annual
burden, the Commission assumes one response annually. The Commission
thus estimates the total annual burden to be 2 hours (1 response x 2
hours per response).
Rachel Dickon,
Secretary.
