clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. EPA will consider the 

comments received and amend the ICR 

as appropriate. The final ICR package 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: In accordance with the 

regulations at 40 CFR part 79, subparts 

A, B, C, and D, Registration of Fuels and 

Fuel Additives, manufacturers 

(including importers) of motor-vehicle 

gasoline, motor-vehicle diesel fuel, and 

additives to those fuels, are required to 

have these products registered by EPA 

prior to their introduction into 

commerce. Registration involves 

providing a chemical description of the 

fuel or additive, and certain technical, 

marketing, and health-effects 

information. The development of 

health-effects data, as required by 40 

CFR part 79, subpart F, is covered by a 

separate information collection (EPA 

ICR No. 1696.08, OMB Control No. 

2060–0297). Manufacturers are also 

required to submit periodic reports 

(annually for additives, quarterly and 

annually for fuels) on production 

volume and related information. The 

information is used to identify products 

whose evaporative or combustion 

emissions may pose an unreasonable 

risk to public health, thus meriting 

further investigation and potential 

regulation. The information is also used 

to ensure that fuel additives comply 

with EPA requirements for protecting 

catalytic converters and other 

automotive emission controls. The data 

have been used to construct a 

comprehensive data base on fuel and 

additive composition. The Mine Safety 

and Health Administration of the 

Department of Labor restricts the use of 

diesel additives in underground coal 

mines to those registered by EPA. Most 

of the information has been claimed by 

the manufacturers as CBI. 

Form Numbers: EPA Forms 3520–12, 

3520–12A, 3520–12Q, 3520–13, 3520– 

13A, and 3520–13B. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Manufacturers and importers of motorvehicle gasoline, motor-vehicle diesel 

fuel, and additives to those fuels. 

Respondents Obligation to Respond: 

Mandatory per 40 CFR part 79. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1950. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion, 

quarterly, annually. 

Total Estimated Burden: 21,000 hours 

per year. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total Estimated Cost: $1.9 million per 

year, includes $50,000 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in Estimates: There is an 

increase of 400 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to an 

increase in the number of registered 

fuels and fuel additives for which 

periodic reports are required.

FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION 

[Petition No. P1–16] 

Petition of COSCO Container Lines 

Company Limited for an Exemption 

From Commission Regulations; Notice 

of Filing of Request for Extension of 

Time 

This is to provide notice of filing and 

to invite comments on or before May 27, 

2016, with regard to a requested 

extension of time for an exemption 

previously granted as described below. 

On January 15, 2016, COSCO 

Container Lines Company Limited 

(‘‘COSCON’’) (Petitioner), petitioned the 

Commission pursuant to 46 CFR 502.76 

of the Commission’s Rules of Practice 

and Procedure, for an exemption from 

the Commission’s rules requiring 

individual service contract 

amendments, 46 CFR 530.10. Petitioner 

explained that ‘‘[o]n or about March 1, 

2016, COSCON will acquire by time 

charter the containerships and certain 

other assets of China Shipping 

Container Lines Co. (‘‘China 

Shipping’’)’’ and, as such, requested that 

the Commission permit the submission 

of a ‘‘universal notice to the 

Commission and to the service contract 

parties’’ instead of filing an amendment 

for each of the seven hundred (700) 

service contracts that will be assigned to 

COSCON. In addition COSCON 

proposed to send electronic notice to 

each shipper counter party. Because 

China Shipping tariffs would be taken 

over by COSCON and renumbered and 

republished, COSCON also sought a 

waiver to avoid amending each contract 

with the new tariff number, by 

publishing a notice of the change in the 

existing China Shipping and COSCON 

tariffs. Notice of the Petition appeared 

in the Federal Register on January 27, 

2016, 81 FR 4627. 

The Commission granted the Petition 

by Order on February 29, 2016 and 

ordered that the new COSCON tariff 

remain in effect only until June 1, 2016 

noting that ‘‘most of the relevant service 

contracts will expire on or before April 

30, 2016, rendering the new tariffs 

unnecessary after that date.’’ On May 

13, 2016, COSCON filed a Petition for 

extension of the exemption stating that 

‘‘there remains a very limited number of 

shippers (around 30), as to which the 

discussions have taken longer than 

COSCON anticipated,’’ and so requests 

a continuation of the exemption to July 

31, 2016. 

The Petition and related documents 

are posted on the Commission’s Web 

site at http://www.fmc.gov/p1-16. 

Comments filed in response to this 

Petition will be posted on the 

Commission’s Web site at this location. 

In order for the Commission to make 

a thorough evaluation of the Petition 

requesting extension of the exemption, 

interested persons are requested to 

submit views or arguments in reply to 

the Petition for Extension of Exemption 

no later than May 27, 2016. Commenters 

must send an original and 5 copies to 

the Secretary, Federal Maritime 

Commission, 800 North Capitol Street 

NW., Washington, DC 20573–0001, and 

be served on Petitioner’s counsel, Robert 

B. Yoshitomi, or Eric C. Jeffrey, Nixon 

Peabody LLP, 799 9th Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20001. A PDF copy of 

the reply must also be sent as an 

attachment to Secretary@fmc.gov. 

Include in the email subject line 

‘‘Petition No P1–16.’’ 

Karen V. Gregory, 

Secretary.
