[Docket No. 95–01]

Filing of Tariffs by Marine Terminal

Operators, Publishing, Filing and

Posting of Tariffs in Domestic Offshore

Commerce; Publishing and Filing of

Tariffs by Common Carriers in the

Foreign Commerce of the United

States; Service Contracts

AGENCY: Federal Maritime Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Federal Maritime

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) is

removing its rules relating to Filing of

Tariffs by Marine Terminal Operators;

Publishing, Filing and Posting of Tariffs

in Domestic Offshore Commerce;

Publishing and Filing of Tariffs by

Common Carriers in the Foreign

Commerce of the United States; and

Service Contracts. These regulations

contain the guidelines, standards, and

procedures for marine terminal

operators (‘‘MTO’s’’) and common

carriers by water to file and publish

their tariffs and/or service contract

essential terms with the Commission in

paper format. With the full scale

implementation of the Commission’s

Automated Tariff Filing and Information

System (‘‘ATFI’’), which now requires

tariffs and service contracts to be filed

electronically, these regulations are no

longer necessary. The Commission is

also amending various other regulations

to delete references to removed

regulations and add replacement

citations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 23, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Bryant L. VanBrakle, Director, Bureau of

Tariffs, Certification and Licensing,

Federal Maritime Commission,

Washington, D.C. 20573, (202) 523–

5796.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Federal Maritime Commission initiated

this proceeding by publishing a Notice

of Proposed Rulemaking (‘‘NPR’’) in the

Federal Register on January 12, 1995.

The NPR solicited comments on a

proposal to remove certain regulations

that governed the filing of tariffs and

service contracts: 46 CFR Part 515,

Filing of Tariffs by Marine Terminal

Operators; 46 CFR Part 550, Publishing,

Filing and Posting of Tariffs in Domestic

Offshore Commerce; 46 CFR Part 580,

Publishing and Filing of Tariffs by

Common Carriers in the Foreign

Commerce of the United States; and 46

CFR Part 581, Service Contracts.

The Commission is removing these

parts because ATFI is now fully

implemented and all MTO’s and

common carriers are now required to

file their tariffs and service contracts in

electronic format. (See Public Law 102–

582, the High Seas Driftnet Fisheries

Enforcement Act, section 502 of which

directs carriers to ‘‘file electronically

with the Commission all tariffs and all

essential terms of service contracts

required to be filed’’ by the 1916, 1933,

or 1984 Acts; see also, 46 CFR Part 514).

The Commission did not receive any

comments on the proposal to remove

these regulations. The Commission is

therefore adopting the proposed rule as

its final rule; and in addition, the

Commission is amending Parts 501, 502,

503, 504, 514, 552, 560, 572, 582, and

583 to delete references to the above

removed parts and to add replacement

citations. Also, 46 CFR § 514.15 is

amended by removing paragraph

(b)(23)(ii) which erroneously refers to

Part 525 which was previously removed

by the Commission. These additional

changes were not part of the NPR and

are not substantive changes.

The Federal Maritime Commission

certifies, pursuant to section 605(b) of

the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C.

605(b), that this final rule will not have

a significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities,

including small businesses, small

organizational units, and small

governmental organizations. ‘‘The

criteria contained in this section

requires the agency head to examine

both the degree of impact as well as the

dispersion of that impact.’’ S. Rep. No.

878, 96th Cong., 2d Sess. 14 (1980)

reprinted at 1980 U.S. Code Cong. and

Admin. News, p. 2788 at 2801. The

Commission does not believe that the

removal of Parts 515, 550, 580 and 581

under the circumstances described

above will result in an impact upon a

substantial number of small entities.

This final rule does not contain any

collection of information requirements

as defined by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1980, as amended. Therefore,

OMB review is not required.

Hazardous Materials Transportation

Registration and Fee Assessment

Program

AGENCY: Research and Special Programs

Administration (RSPA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: RSPA is maintaining the

current annual registration fee of $300

(which includes a $50 processing fee),

for persons engaged in transporting or

offering for transportation certain

categories and quantities of hazardous

materials in intrastate, interstate, and

foreign commerce. In addition, this final

rule adopts two changes to the

statutorily mandated registration and fee

assessment program. Applicability of

the registration requirement to materials

that are extremely toxic by inhalation

(Hazard Zone A) is expanded to include

materials in a hazard class or division

other than Division 2.3 or Division 6.1.

RSPA is also adopting an exception

from the registration requirement for

foreign offerors, as authorized by the

amended statute.

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 1, 1996.

Materials Planning and Analysis, (202)

Hazardous Materials Standards, (202)

Transportation, 400 Seventh Street SW.,

Washington, DC 20590–0001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

On July 9, 1992, RSPA published a

final rule under Docket HM–208 [57 FR

30620], establishing a national

registration and fee assessment program,

as required by 49 U.S.C. 5108 et seq.

(Federal hazardous materials

transportation law), for persons engaged

in transporting or offering for

transportation certain categories and

quantities of hazardous materials in

intrastate, interstate, and foreign

commerce. Persons subject to the

registration program are required to file

annually a registration statement with

RSPA and pay a total annual fee of

$300, of which $250 is used to fund the

Hazardous Materials Public Sector

Training and Planning Grants Program,

and $50 is used to offset processing

costs. The registration fee of $250 is the

minimum amount permitted under the

statute. Grants to States and Indian

tribes are expected to total more than

$20 million through 1995, the third year

that this program has been in effect.

Average annual funding levels ($6.3

million) however have been below the

congressionally authorized level of

$18.975 million per year.

On January 30, 1995, RSPA issued a

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)

(Docket HM–208B; 60 FR 5822) that

proposed changes to increase the annual

registration fee for certain persons. The

NPRM distinguished between large,

medium, and small entities that conduct

operations in one or more of the five

categories for which registration is

required. RSPA proposed a four-level

fee structure that considered the

comparative risks that may be posed by

the types and quantities of

transportation activities covered by the

registration requirement. The annual

fee, under the graduated fee schedule

proposed by RSPA, would be

determined on the basis of the

registrant’s transportation activity

during the prior calendar year: large

($5,050), medium ($2,550), small ($500),

and low ($300).

II. Graduated Fee Schedule

More than 350 comments were

received in response to the NPRM.

Commenters opposing the increased fee

schedule generally claimed that

improved compliance efforts would

eliminate the need to increase the fees

to fully fund the grant program. Twelve

commenters who supported the

proposal to increased fees representing

several States and local emergency

response organizations that benefit

directly from the grants program

indicated a need for increased funding

for grants. Approximately 100 inquiries

were forwarded by Members of Congress

on behalf of their constituents. Many

commenters raised several complex

issues and suggested various funding

alternatives.

As indicated in the notice of proposed

rulemaking, an Industry Working Group

(IWG), facilitated by the Hazardous

Materials Advisory Council, and

reflecting the perspective of many

persons subject to the registration and

fee collection requirements, provided

recommendations on how the

registration and fee collection

requirement could be improved. Those

recommendations contain the basic

themes that are reflected in many of the

350 comments. In addition, the IWG

offered numerous suggestions on how

RSPA may be able to more effectively

communicate registration requirements

in non-technical language that the

regulated community can more easily

understand. RSPA has revised its

brochure describing the registration

program to reflect many of changes

suggested by the IWG.

RSPA received comments on behalf of

the Alliance for Uniform Hazmat

Transportation Procedures (Alliance),

the National Conference of State

Legislatures (NCSL), and the National

Association of SARA Title III Officials.

These commenters, reflecting the

perspective of entities that benefit from

the State and Indian tribe grant program

funded by the fee, also generally

opposed RSPA’s proposed graduated fee

structure. For example, NCSL believes

that because RSPA has not generated,

collected, or disbursed what NCSL

considers as ‘‘modestly authorized

levels,’’ the purpose of the Federal

program has been eroded. NCSL

strongly recommended that RSPA

reevaluate the Federal registration

program with an eye toward

elimination. The Alliance opposed the

fee schedule and believes that RSPA’s

actions will create obstacles in the

registration of motor carriers by States

and that implementation of the

proposed fee schedule is premature.

Based on the comments RSPA

received in response to the NPRM,

including the various alternatives and

recommendations presented, RSPA has

decided not to adopt the current

proposal to increase the registration fees

at this time. Regulations regarding

registration (Subpart G to 49 CFR Part

107) are retained. Therefore, the annual

registration fee remains at $300. This

decision will maintain the current levels

of funding to the States and Indian
