**FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

William Cody, Secretary; Phone: (202) 523-5908; Email: *[email protected].*

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

On October 14, 2022, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for new regulations on demurrage and detention billing requirements. [^1] In the NPRM, the Commission determined that the proposed rule did not constitute a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment within the meaning of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 U.S.C. 4321 *et seq.,* and that preparation of an environmental impact statement is not required. [^2] The Commission also noted that the FONSI and environmental assessment would be available for inspection on the docket at *https://www.regulations.gov.*

[^1] 87 FR 62341 (Oct. 14, 2022).

[^2] 87 FR at 62356.

On November 15, 2022, the Commission issued a notice that the FONSI was available on the docket. There was a delay, however, in posting the FONSI, and it was posted on November 22, 2022. Therefore, the Commission is issuing another notice that the FONSI is now available on the docket. This Finding of No Significant Impact will become final within 10 days of publication of this document in the *Federal Register* unless a petition for review is filed by using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at *www.regulations.gov.*

By the Commission.

William Cody,

Secretary.
