In addition, individual carriers or agreements among carriers are required to make available in tariff format certain enumerated essential terms of their service contracts. The Commission is responsible for reviewing the accessibility and accuracy of automated tariff systems in accordance with its regulations set forth at 46 CFR 520. The respondents in this information collection are ocean common carriers and conferences of ocean common carriers.
