Short Statement:
The Commission proposes to extend the tariff rate publication exemption contained in 46 CFR part 532 to foreign-based unlicensed NVOCCs. Under the proposed rule, these foreign-based unlicensed NVOCCs that enter into NRAs will be subject to the same requirement that they include a prominent notice invoking the exemption in its electronically published rules tariff and indicate their intention to the Commission. In addition, foreign-based unlicensed NVOCCs must maintain all original NRAs and associated records including written communications for 5 years in a format easily produced to the Commission and must produce those records promptly upon request from the Commission.
