   The agency received a non-vessel-operating common carrier license applications from AA Cargo, South San Francisco, Calif. (Arben Hodza, chief executive officer).

   The FMC received an NVO-ocean freight forwarder license application from Hafen Consolidators USA, Miami (Jose H. Hoppe, president); and an ocean freight forwarder license application from Pacific Glory USA, Forest Park, Ga. (Kil Ra, CEO).

   Persons knowing of any reason why an applicant should not receive an OTI license are urged to contact the FMC's Office of Transportation Intermediaries in Washington at (202) 523-5843.
