Notice of Required Determinations, 

Contract Provisions and Opportunity to 

Comment: 

The Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act of 1980 (‘‘CERCLA’’), as amended 

(commonly known as ‘‘Superfund’’), 

requires completion of enforcement 

activities at Superfund sites in concert 

with other site events. EPA has entered 

into a contract with the U.S. Department 

of Justice (‘‘DOJ’’), Interagency 

Agreement No. DW–15–95566201, for 

enforcement support in relation to the 

Operating Industries, Inc. Superfund 

Site, Inc. pursuant to DOJ’s MEGA3 

contract with CACI, Inc., Contract No. 

DJJ07–C–1521. 

Enforcement support services will be 

provided to EPA by CACI, Inc. EPA has 

determined that disclosure of CBI to 

CACI, Inc., and its employees, is 

necessary in order for the company to 

carry out its work for EPA under its 

contract with the DOJ. The information 

EPA intends to disclose includes 

submissions made by Potentially 

Responsible Parties to EPA in 

accordance with EPA’s enforcement 

activities at the Operating Industries 

Inc., Superfund Site. The information 

would be disclosed to the above-named 

DOJ contractor, CACI, Inc. for any of the 

following reasons: to assist with 

document handling, inventory, and 

indexing; to assist with document 

review and analysis; to verify 

completeness; and to provide technical 

review of submittals. The contract 

complies with all requirements of 40 

CFR 2.310(h)(2). EPA Region 9 will 

require that each of the contractor’s 

employees with access to CBI sign a 

written agreement that he or she: (1) 

Will use the information only for the 

purpose of carrying out the work 

required by the contract, (2) will refrain 

from disclosing the information to 

anyone other than EPA without prior 

written approval of each affected 

business or of an EPA legal office, and 

(3) will return to EPA all copies of the 

information (and any abstracts or 

extracts therefrom) upon request from 

the EPA program office, whenever the 

information is no longer required by the 

contractor for performance of the work 

required by the contract or upon 

completion of the contract.

FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION 

[Petition P1–08] 

Petition of the National Customs 

Brokers and Forwarders Association 

of America, Inc. for Exemption From 

Mandatory Rate Tariff Publication; 

Notice of Filing 

Notice is hereby given that National 

Customs Brokers and Forwarders 

Association of America, Inc. 

(‘‘Petitioner’’) has petitioned, pursuant 

to 49 U.S.C. 40103 (former Section 16 of 

the Shipping Act of 1984 (‘‘the Shipping 

Act’’)), and 46 CFR 502.67 and 502.69, 

for an exemption from the provisions of 

the Shipping Act that require nonvessel-operating common carriers 

(‘‘NVOCCs’’) to publish and adhere to 

all ocean tariff rates. Specifically, 

Petitioner requests that NVOCCs be 

exempted from the provisions of the 

Shipping Act requiring NVOCCs to 

publish and adhere to rate tariffs in 

those instances where an NVOCC has 

individually negotiated rates with its 

shipping customers and memorialized 

those rates in writing. Petitioner further 

clarifies its request by stating that: (1) 

The exemption would be voluntary and 

apply only to rate tariffs; (2) negotiated 

rates and related disputes would be 

governed by contract law and therefore 

exempt from 49 U.S.C. 40501(a)–(e) and 

(g) (formerly sections 8(a), (b), (d) and 

(g) of the Shipping Act—governing tariff 

contents and publication, time volume 

rates, 30 day’s notice for increases, and 

accessibility and accuracy of automated 

tariffs); 40503 (formerly section 8(e)—

setting out procedures for refunds and 

waivers) and 41104(2), (4) and (8) 

(formerly sections 10(b)(2), (4) and (8)—

prohibiting service not in accordance 

with tariffs, unfair or unjustly 

discriminatory practices regarding rates, 

cargo classifications, cargo space 

accommodations, loading or landing of 

freight or adjustment or settlement of 

claims; and, undue or unreasonable 

preferences or advantages or undue or 

unreasonable prejudices or 

disadvantages); (3) NVOCC Service 

Arrangements would continue to be 

filed with the FMC and essential terms 

published; (4) all NVOCC-negotiated 

rates would be memorialized in writing; 

(5) the Commission would have access 

to documentation underlying negotiated 

rates; (6) the exemption would not 

convey antitrust immunity on NVOCCs; 

and (7) the exemption would apply to 

FMC-licensed or registered NVOCCs. 

In order for the Commission to make 

a thorough evaluation of the Petition, 

interested persons are requested to 

submit views or arguments in reply to 

the Petition no later than September 26, 

2008. Replies shall consist of an original 

and fifteen (15) copies, be directed to 

the Assistant Secretary, Federal 

Maritime Commission, 800 North 

Capitol Street, NW., Washington, DC 

20573–0001, and be served on 

Petitioner’s counsel Edward D. 

Greenberg, Esq., Galland, Kharasch, 

Greenberg, Fellman & Swirsky, P.C., 

1054 Thirty-First Street, NW., 

Washington, DC 20037–4492. A copy of 

the reply shall be submitted in 

electronic form (Microsoft Word 2003) 

by e-mail to secretary@fmc.gov. The 

Petition will be posted on the 

Commission’s Web site at http:// 

www.fmc.gov/reading/Petitions.asp. 

Replies filed in response to this petition 

also will be posted on the Commission’s 

Web site at this location. 

Parties participating in this 

proceeding may elect to receive service 

of the Commission’s issuances in this 

proceeding through email in lieu of 

service by U.S mail. A party opting for 

electronic service shall advise the Office 

of the Secretary in writing and provide 

an e-mail address where service can be 

made.
