FMC reviews 7 OTI license applications

   The U.S. Federal Maritime Commission has received seven license applications and changes for review.

   The FMC received non-vessel-operating common carrier license applications from Globe Shipping, Alhambra, Calif. (Eric G. Qian, chief executive officer); and JSJ Express, Flushing, N.Y. (Yaohun Chen, president).

   The agency also received applications for changes to trade names from A.W.L.I. Group of Florida, Miami (David Rosendorf, director); Crescent Line, Dallas (Gilbert Khoury, president); Hydra Logistics, Houston (Gilbert Khoury, president); and Salinas International Freight Co., Dallas (Gilbert Khoury, president); and an application for change to a qualifying individual from Sealaska Global Logistics, Atlanta (Angela Higgs, vice president of ocean freight).

   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 at (202) 523-5843.
