and of the same model year as the

model of the motor vehicle to be

compared, and is capable of being

readily altered to conform to all

applicable Federal motor vehicle safety

standards.

Petitions for eligibility decisions may

be submitted by either manufacturers or

importers who have registered with

NHTSA pursuant to 49 CFR part 592. As

specified in 49 CFR 593.7, NHTSA

publishes notice in the Federal Register

of each petition that it receives, and

affords interested persons an

opportunity to comment on the petition.

At the close of the comment period,

NHTSA decides, on the basis of the

petition and any comments that it has

received, whether the vehicle is eligible

for importation. The agency then

publishes this decision in the Federal

Register.

Liphardt & Associates of

Ronkonkoma, New York (Registered

Importer R–90–004) petitioned NHTSA

to decide whether 1989 Nissan Maxima

passenger cars are eligible for

importation into the United States.

NHTSA published notice of the petition

on September 12, 1995 (60 FR 47426) to

afford an opportunity for public

comment. The reader is referred to that

notice for a thorough description of the

petition. No comments were received in

response to the notice. Based on its

review of the information submitted by

the petitioner, NHTSA has decided to

grant the petition.

Vehicle Eligibility Number for Subject

Vehicles

The importer of a vehicle admissible

under any final decision must indicate

on the form HS–7 accompanying entry

the appropriate vehicle eligibility

number indicating that the vehicle is

eligible for entry. VSP–138 is the

vehicle eligibility number assigned to

vehicles admissible under this decision.

Final Decision

Accordingly, on the basis of the

foregoing, NHTSA hereby decides that a

1989 Nissan Maxima not originally

manufactured to comply with all

applicable Federal motor vehicle safety

standards is substantially similar to a

1989 Nissan Maxima originally

manufactured for importation into and

sale in the United States and certified

under 49 U.S.C. § 30115, and is capable

of being readily altered to conform to all

applicable Federal motor vehicle safety

standards.

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30141 (a)(1)(A) and

(b)(1); 49 CFR 593.8; delegations of authority

at 49 CFR 1.50 and 501.8.

Issued on: December 4, 1995.

Maritime Administration

[Docket S–929]

Mormac Marine Transport, Inc.; Notice

of Application for Written Permission

Under Section 805(a) of the Merchant

Marine Act, 1936, as Amended

Mormac Marine Transport, Inc.

(Transport) by letter of November 22,

1995, requests, pursuant to section

805(a) of the Merchant Marine Act,

1936, as amended (Act) and Article II–

13 of Operating-Differential Subsidy

Agreements (ODSA) MA/MSB–295(a),

(b), and (c), written permission to

expand the scope of domestic

operations permitted under the ODSA

Contract MA/MSB–295 to include the

management and operation of the

vessels POTOMAC TRADER,

DELAWARE TRADER, and

CHESAPEAKE TRADER (Vessels) for

Attransco, Inc. (Attransco), pursuant to

a management agreement to be entered

into between Mormac Marine

Enterprises (Mormac) and Attransco.

Mormac and Transport are owned by

Mormac Marine Group, Inc. (Parent).

Transport, Mormac and the Parent have

common ownership as well as common

directors and officers.

Transport states that pursuant to a

management agreement to be entered

into between Attransco and Mormac,

Mormac will become the manager of the

Vessels. The Vessels, Transport

continues, will be used in the Jones Act

trade in essentially the same manner as

is currently the case. Transport explains

that since the Vessels will essentially

continue their current services as they

have been used by Attransco, the

management of the Vessels by Mormac

will not result in any change in

competitive conditions for U.S.-flag

vessels providing service in the Jones

Act trade. Transport further explains

that it and Mormac are entirely separate

corporate entities that will maintain

separate and discreet accounts so there

will be no issue of subsidy leakage.

Furthermore, Transport continues, the

only benefit which Mormac will receive

in respect of the operation of the Vessels

will be a management fee, and all other

benefits of operations will redound to

Attransco.

In Transport’s views, no U.S.-flag

competitor of the Vessels will be subject

to any changed circumstances or unfair

competition as a result of the change in

management of the Vessels, nor will the

operation of the Vessels by an affiliate

of Transport be prejudicial to the

purposes and policies of the Act.

In summary, Transport requests that

the scope of domestic operations

permitted under ODSA Contracts MA/

MSB–295 (a), (b), and (c) be modified to

incorporate the management and

operation of the Vessels and requests

approval for common ownership,

officers and directors of Mormac and

Transport.

Finally, Transport advises that

Mormac will assume management

responsibilities of the Vessels on

January 1, 1996.

The application may be inspected in

the Office of the Secretary, Maritime

Administration. Any person, firm or

corporation having any interest (within

the meaning of section 805(a)) in

Transport’s request and desiring to

submit comments concerning the

request must by 5:00 pm on December

15, 1995, file written comments in

triplicate with the Secretary, Maritime

Administration, together with a petition

for leave to intervene. The petition shall

state clearly and concisely the grounds

of interest, and the alleged facts relied

on for relief.

If no petition for leave to intervene is

received within the specified time or if

it is determined that petitions filed do

not demonstrate sufficient interest to

warrant a hearing, the Maritime

Administration will take such action as

may be deemed appropriate.

In the event petitions regarding the

relevant section 805(a) issues are

received from parties with standing to

be heard, a hearing will be held, the

purpose of which will be to receive

evidence under section 805(a) relative to

whether the proposed operations (a)

would result in unfair competition to

any person, firm, or corporation

operating exclusively in the coastwise

or intercoastal service, or (b) would be

prejudicial to the objects and policy of

the Act relative to domestic trade

operations.

Program No. 20.805 (Operating-Differential

Subsidies)).
