Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on cargo preference laws, focusing on their effect on: (1) federal transportation costs; and (2) the U.S. merchant marine industry. GAO found that: (1) cargo preference laws have increased federal agencies' transportation costs by an average of $578 million per year; (2) cargo preference laws increase agencies' transportation costs because U.S.-flag vessels generally charge more than foreign vessels to carry cargo; (3) although some agencies paid an estimated $3.5 billion in additional transportation costs to ship cargo on U.S.-flag vessels, DOD estimated that $659 million of those costs were related to the Persian Gulf War; (4) the effect of cargo preference laws on the U.S. merchant marine industry has been mixed; (5) the share of oceanborne cargo carried aboard U.S.-flag vessels has declined because most internationally shipped cargo is exempt from cargo preference laws; (6) in 1992, foreign-flag vessels carried about 96 percent of international cargo; and (7) although eliminating cargo preference laws could cause two-thirds of the U.S.-flag vessels to leave the U.S. fleet and result in the elimination of about 6,000 U.S. shipboard jobs, it would have a minimal impact on the U.S. shipbuilding industry.

Download or read book Cargo Preferences for U. S. -Flag Shipping written by Edmund Sutton and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-standing U.S. policy has treated the U.S.-flag international fleet as a naval auxiliary to be available in times of war or national emergency. When the United States is involved in an extended military conflict overseas, 90% or more of military cargoes are typically carried by ship. To support the U.S. merchant marine, Congress has required that "government-impelled" cargo sent overseas be carried on U.S.-flag ships. Government-impelled cargo (a.k.a. "preference cargo") is government-owned cargo, such as military supplies and food aid, and any cargo that is somehow financed by the federal government, such as by the Export-Import Bank. While export shipments account for the vast bulk of government-impelled cargo, in 2008 Congress extended the law to require that state and local governments and private entities importing goods with federal financial assistance ship at least 50% of such cargo in U.S.-flag vessels. Regulations to implement that requirement have not been issued. This book explains the motivation behind cargo preference law, discusses issues concerning the cost-effectiveness of the program, reviews attempts to apply cargo preference to the nation's oil trade, and identifies several disparate bills reflecting wide disagreement on the future direction of cargo preference policy. The book also examines cargo preference for food aid's (CPFA) impact on food aid shipping cost and U.S. agencies' implementation of CPFA requirements, and the extent to which the implementation of CPFA requirements contributes to sufficient sealift capacity.

Download or read book International Affairs written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cargo preference laws seek to promote the development and maintenance of an adequate, well-balanced U.S. merchant marine, to promote U.S. commerce, and to aid in the national defense. The laws require use of U.S. flag vessels for 50 percent to 100 percent of federal government-generated ocean shipments. The Secretary of Commerce is responsible for issuing cargo preference regulations, reviewing the administration of agency cargo preference programs, and reporting on them annually to Congress. The three major civilian government agencies reporting to the Maritime Administration have generally met the U.S. flag shipping requirements. The Administration had some success in expanding the number of programs with cargo preference requirements but has been hampered by nonspecific legislation and lack of clear-cut authority to determine the applicability of cargo preference legislation to programs. Because of uncertainty about applicability of the legislation to transportation of imports under federal grant programs, some shipments may have been made on foreign-flag vessels which could have been made on U.S. flag vessels. Reports to the Congress on cargo preference shipments have been incomplete, and some agencies have not fully complied with the Administration's reporting regulations. Although the Administration has tried to resolve these problems, improvements are still needed. It is developing a computerized system to improve its cargo preference monitoring and reporting capabilities.

Download or read book The Political Economy of Shipping US Food Aid Under the Cargo Preference Regime written by Kenneth J. Button and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are concerned with the way in which US agricultural cargo preference that regulates the international transportation of US Government generated goods may affect food aid provision. It considers specifically the efficiency of the current arrangements whereby 50 percent of food aid has to be moved by US registered ships, and the potential implications of changing this. It does this within a much broader critique of the ways in which such policies tend to be evaluated. The findings are that, when its opportunity costs are netted out, there are likely to be fewer quantifiable benefits to the US economy of the cargo preference structure than are often posited. In particular, many of the estimates of the economic gains to the US found in prior studies often involve those of vested interests and are frequently gross calculations based on not only a weak underlying methodology, but also a distorted use of that methodology.
