The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission has received seven ocean transportation intermediary (OTI) license applications and changes for review.
The FMC received a non-vessel-operating common carrier license application from US Freight Station LLC, Elizabeth, N.J. (Xiaoning “Frank” Xu, member).
The agency received NVO/ocean freight forwarder license applications from Elias G. Kim, La Mirada, Calif. (Elias G. Kim, sole proprietor); Trans Pacific Forwarding, Inglewood, Calif. (Gary A. Dorian, president); and True Ocean Transport, Melbourne, Fla. (Elizabeth R. Monserrate, manager).
The FMC also received an ocean freight forwarder license application from The International Moving Group, Hudson, Fla. (Jennifer McLaren, member).
In addition, the agency received license applications for the change to a qualifying individual from Seamaster Logistics, Diamond Bar, Calif. (Christopher J. Dombalis, president) and for a name change to Safe Transport Global from Safe Transport, South San Francisco, Calif. (Raul B. Garcia, member).
Persons knowing of any reason why an applicant should not receive an OTI license or amendment are urged to contact the FMC’s Office of Transportation Intermediaries in Washington, D.C. Lists of licensed OTIs (applications approved, bonds in place and fully licensed) — both ocean freight forwarders and NVOs — also are available on the FMC website.
