April 5, 2011.
ACTION:
Final rule; correction.
SUMMARY:
The Federal Maritime Commission is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on March 2, 2011, exempting licensed non-vessel-operating common carriers that enter into negotiated rate arrangements from the tariff rate publication requirements of the Shipping Act of 1984. This correction clarifies that the negotiated rate arrangement must be agreed to prior to receipt of the cargo and removes the requirement that non-vessel-operating common carriers indicate their intention to move cargo under negotiated rate arrangements on their Form FMC-1 on file with the Commission.
DATES:
Effective April 18, 2011.

§ 532.6
2. On page 11361, in the second column, in § 532.6 Notices, the paragraph designations are removed and the text of the section is correctly revised to read as follows:
“An NVOCC wishing to invoke an exemption pursuant to this part must indicate that intention to the Commission and to the public by a prominent notice in its rules tariff and bills of lading or equivalent shipping documents.”
By the Commission.
