46 U.S.C. § 40503 - Refunds and waivers
Text
The Federal Maritime Commission, on application of a carrier or shipper, may permit a common carrier or conference to refund a portion of the freight charges collected from a shipper, or to waive collection of a portion of the charges from a shipper, if—
(1) there is an error in a tariff, a failure to publish a new tariff, or an error in quoting a tariff, and the refund or waiver will not result in discrimination among shippers, ports, or carriers;
(2) the common carrier or conference, before filing an application for authority to refund or waive any charges for an error in a tariff or a failure to publish a tariff, has published a new tariff setting forth the rate on which the refund or waiver would be based; and
(3) the application for the refund or waiver is filed with the Commission within 180 days from the date of shipment.
(Pub. L. 109–304, § 7, Oct. 6, 2006, 120 Stat. 1535.)
Notes
Historical and Revision Notes RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 4050346 App.:1707(e).Pub. L. 98–237, § 8(e), Mar. 20, 1984, 98 Stat. 75; Pub. L. 105–258, title I, § 106(d), Oct. 14, 1998, 112 Stat. 1907. In paragraph (1), the words “an error in a tariff, a failure to publish a new tariff” are substituted for “an error in a, in failing to publish a new tariff” to correct an obvious error in the underlying statute. In paragraph (2), the words “or waive” are added for consistency with the reference to a waiver later in the paragraph.
