Anti-Rebate Certification Filing Requirements

The Commission is waiving the requirement for chief executive officers of common carriers and other entities to file by December 31, 1998, a written certification that the firm has a policy against rebating that was recently promulgated to each owner, officer and employee of the firm, with details of the firm's efforts to prevent illegal rebating and that the firm will cooperate with Commission efforts to end illegal rebating. This action is being taken to alleviate the filing burden on the public and the collection burden on the Commission, in light of changes made by the Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 1998 (``OSRA'') which removes the filing requirement on May 1, 1999, when OSRA becomes effective.
