FMC reviews 4 OTI license applications

The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission has received four ocean transportation intermediary license applications and changes for review.

   The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) has received four ocean transportation intermediary (OTI) license applications and changes for review.
   The FMC received a non-vessel-operating common carrier license application from All Satisfied Logistics, San Diego, Calif. (Kevin K. Lee, chief executive officer); and NVO/ocean freight forwarder license applications from Bortesi & Co., New York (Rodolfo Longe, sole manager); and Going Your Way Management Group, Hanover, Md. (Shawn Scott, vice president).
   The agency also received an application for the addition of trade name Container Logistics Worldwide from TRC Transport, Miami, Fla. (Arcenio Taveras Nunez Jr., president).
   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 – are also available on the FMC website.
