[Federal Register Volume 60, Number 32 (Thursday, February 16, 1995)] [Notices] [Page 9021] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 95-3897] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Domestic Personal Property Rate Solicitation--Implementation of Proposed Change AGENCY: Military Traffic Management Command, DoD. ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This notice provides notification of MTMC's intent to eliminate the additional shipment valuation charges shown as Items 130a/130b in the Domestic Personal Property Rate Solicitation (D-3) or reissues thereof. Acting on the recommendation of a Government Accounting Office (GAO) study, MTMC intends to eliminate the 64 cents per $100 valuation charge, applicable to all points in CONUS, as shown as Item 130a, and the additional 64 cents per $100 valuation charge on shipments to or from Alaska, shown as Item 130b in the Domestic Personal Property Rate Solicitation (D-3), and reissues thereof. GAO believes that carriers now have the claims experience needed under increased liability to adjust their rates to compensate for any increased liability costs, thus making further compensary payments unjustified. The above noted shipment valuation charges will cease to apply on November 1, 1995, effective with the Domestic Winter rate cycle. ADDRESSES: Commander, Military Traffic Management Command, ATTN: MTOP- T-NP, 5611 Columbia Pike, Falls Church, VA 22041-5050. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Ann Peterson, (703) 756-1190. DATES: The above shipment valuation charges will cease to apply on November 1, 1995. Kenneth L. Denton, Army Federal Register Liaison Officer.
