Maritime Administration

[Docket MSP–009]

Lykes Bros. Steamship Company, Inc.;

Notice of Application for approvals to

proposed transfer of Maritime Security

Program Operating Agreements (MA/

MSP–21 through MA/MSP–23)

Sea Crews II, Inc. (Sea Crews II), as

successor in interest to Lykes Bros.

Steamship Co., Inc. (Lykes Bros.), by

letter dated April 9, 1998, confirmed

notification given to the Maritime

Administration (MARAD) on July 14,

1997, that it has transferred Maritime

Security Program (MSP) Operating

Agreements MA/MSP–21, MA/MSP–22,

and MA/MSP–23 (MSP Operating

Agreements) to First American Bulk

Carrier Corporation (FABC), subject to

MARAD approval. By letter dated April

9, 1998, FABC has provided notice to

MARAD that, assuming approval by

MARAD of the transfer of the MSP

Operating Agreements from Lykes Bros.

to FABC, it intends to assign those

agreements to three wholly owned

subsidiaries of FABC: First Ocean Bulk

Carrier I LLC, First Ocean Bulk Carrier

II LLC, and First Ocean Bulk Carrier III

LLC (FABC Subsidiaries). One MSP

Operating Agreement is to be assigned

to each of the FABC Subsidiaries. The

MSP Operating Agreements were

awarded to Lykes Bros. On December

20, 1996 with regard to applications

filed for the LYKES NAVIGATOR (ex

ALMERIA LYKES), LYKES

DISCOVERER (ex MARGARET LYKES),

and LYKES LIBERATOR (ex STELLA
18488 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 72 /Wednesday, April 15, 1998 / Notices

LYKES) (collectively, the Vessels). The

Vessels are currently bareboat chartered

from Sea Crews II to Lykes Lines

Limited, LLC (Lykes Lines). Sea Crews

II intends to form a trust to own the

Vessels (Owner Trustee). FABC asserts

that it, the FABC Subsidiaries, Sea

Crews II, and the Owner Trustee are

citizens of the United States under

section 2 of the Shipping Act, 1916, as

amended. Further, FABC reports that

Lykes Lines is a U.S. citizen for

purposes of obtaining a registry

endorsement.

More particularly, the approvals,

findings, and determinations requested

include those that may be deemed

necessary under statute, regulation, or

contract in order:

1. For the FABC Subsidiaries to

assume the existing bareboat charters of

the Vessels from Sea Crews II to Lykes

Lines for the term of the MSP Operating

Agreements;

2. For Lykes Bros., acting through Sea

Crews II, its successor in interest, to

transfer the MSP Operating Agreements

to FABC, which in turn would assign

them to the FABC Subsidiaries;

3. For the FABC Subsidiaries to time

charter the Vessels to Lykes Lines for

the term of the MSP Operating

Agreements.

FABC, by letter dated April 9, 1998,

filed an application with MARAD for

participation in the MSP with the MSP

Operating Agreements. FABC asserts

that its application for participation in

the MSP provides MARAD the

information regarding FABC, the FABC

Subsidiaries, and the Vessels required

for MARAD to act on the application to

transfer the MSP Operating Agreements

to FABC, and in turn, to the FABC

Subsidiaries.

FABC requests that MARAD:

1. Allow the requested transfers to

become effective in accordance with the

applications, and pursuant to law; and

2. Take any and all actions that

MARAD may deem necessary or

appropriate in order to confirm and

effectuate FABC’s participation (through

the FABC Subsidiaries) in the MSP as

transferee of the MSP Operating

Agreements.

This notice invites comments on

maritime policy issues that may be

raised by the Lykes Bros./Sea Crews II/

FABC proposal relating to the transfer of

the MSP Operating Agreements to

FABC, and in turn to the FABC

Subsidiaries. This application may be

inspected in the Office of the Secretary,

Maritime Administration. Any person,

firm, or corporation having an interest

in this proposal and desiring to submit

comments concerning the application

must file written comments, in

triplicate, with the Secretary, Maritime

Administration, Room 7210, Nassif

Building, 400 Seventh Street, S.W.,

Washington, D.C. 20590. Comments

must be received no later than the close

of business on April 27, 1998. This

notice is published as a matter of

discretion, and the fact of its publication

should in no way be considered a

favorable, or unfavorable, decision on

the application, as filed, or as may be

amended. MARAD will consider any

comments timely submitted and take

such action with respect thereto as may

be deemed appropriate.

Dated: April 10, 1998.

By Order of the Maritime Administration.
