China Ocean Shipping (Group) Company--Petition for Exemption From 
Section 9(c) of the Shipping Act of 1984 (Effective Date of Controlled 
Carrier Rates); Notice of Filing

    Notice is hereby given that China Ocean Shipping (Group) Company 
(``Petitioner'') has petitioned for an exemption pursuant to Section 16

petition for exemption, interested persons are requested to submit
