Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, 
DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control Number: 2133-0013.
    Title: Monthly Report of Ocean Shipments Moving Under Export-Import 
Bank Financing.
    Form Numbers: MA-518.
    Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
    Background: The information collection will be used by MARAD to 
monitor compliance with the cargo preference laws by parties covered 
under PR 17 and 46 CFR part 381. In addition, MARAD will use the 
information to compile annual information on Export-Import Bank-
financed shipments, and when applicable, to provide for an informal 
grievance procedure, in the event there is a question or complaint 
pertaining to cargo preference matters.
    The monthly shipping reports, with substantiating documents, will 
provide the only basis for MARAD to exercise its legislative 
responsibility to monitor Export-Import Bank-financed cargoes that are 
transported on U.S.-flag vessels, recipient flag vessels and on third-
flag vessels according to the determinations and certifications of 
vessel non-availability that have been granted. The compilation of the 
statistics from the shipping reports forms the basis for determining 
compliance with PR 17 for each loan participant. This information is 
also provided to the Export-Import Bank, and is the nucleus for 
conducting annual reviews of the shipping activities of the Export-
Import Bank programs.
    MARAD uses the information collected as part of the Transparency 
Initiative to share with the Export-Import Bank. MARAD also intends to 
use the information to assist Ex-Im Bank shippers with finding suitable 
U.S.-flag vessels and in support of the determinations MARAD makes with 
respect to requests from Export-Import Bank shippers for certifications 
of non-availability.
    Respondents: All Export-Import Bank loan and certain loan guarantee 
recipients and designated representatives charged with the 
responsibility of monthly and annual reporting. These can be a 
contractor, ocean transportation intermediary, supplier, etc.
    Number of Respondents: 28.
    Frequency: Monthly.
    Number of Responses: One per month.
    Total Annual Burden: 196.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the Department's 
performance; (b) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for the 
Department to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the 
information collection; and (d) ways that the burden could be minimized 
without reducing the quality of the collected information. The agency 
will summarize and/or include your comments in the request for OMB's 
clearance of this information collection.
