LAW AND ANALYSIS. Title 46, United States Code Appendix, section 883 (46 U.S.C. App. 883), commonly called the Xxxxx Act, provides, in part, that no merchandise shall be transported between points in the United States embraced within the coastwise laws, either directly or via a foreign port, or for any part of the transportation, in any vessel other than a vessel built in and documented under the laws of the United States and owned by citizens of the United States. Section 883 was amended by the Act of September 21, 1965 (Pub. L. 89-194, 79 State. 823), which added the Sixth Proviso, and by the Act of August 11, 1968 (Pub. L. 90-474, 82 State. 700), which amended that proviso. The 1965 Act exempted from the provisions of section 883 the coastwise transportation of empty cargo vans, empty lift vans, and empty shipping tanks in non-coastwise-qualified United States-flag vessels or foreign-flag vessels, on a reciprocal basis, when the vans and tanks are owned or leased by the owner or operator of the transporting vessels and are being transported for use in the carriage of cargo in foreign trade. The 1968 Act added equipment for use with cargo vans, lift vans, and empty shipping tanks, empty barges specifically designed for carriage aboard a vessel, and certain empty instruments of international traffic to the articles included within the Sixth Proviso. These articles and the articles covered by the 1965 Act were required by the 1968 Act to be owned or leased by the owner or operator of the transporting vessel and transported for his use in handling his cargo in foreign trade. The 1968 Act also added stevedoring equipment and material to the articles included within the Sixth Proviso. To qualify for exemption from section 883 under the Sixth Proviso, the stevedoring equipment and material must be owned or leased by the owner or operator of the transporting vessel or owned or leased by the stevedoring company contracting for the lading or unlading of the vessel and the stevedoring equipment and material must be transported without charge for use in the handling of cargo in foreign trade. The language of the proviso regarding containers which requires that they be owned or leased by the owner or operator of the transporting vessel and transported for his use in transporting his cargo in foreign trade, has collided with contemporary business practice in the vessel industry. Newly emergent limited-purpose alliances of vessel owners have blurred the clear boundaries of the proviso ...

LAW AND ANALYSIS. (1) Whether the termination of Taxpayer’s PPA pursuant to the Agreement constitutes a “compulsory or involuntary conversion” of its PPA within the meaning of 1033 and 1231.

Rev. 74-8, 1974-l C.B. 200. modifying Rev. Rul. provides that a threat or imminence of condemnation may exist the purchaser, a public utility, lacked actual condemnation authority prior to or at the time of the sale. but it generally could readily obtain the power to condemn by application to the appropriate state official authority in the event that a voluntary sale was not arranged, and there was no reason to believe that such power to condemn the land purchased be denied.

In submissions the Defendant states that the Notice of Application is solely for the striking out of the defence under Part 26.2(1)(c) and that the Claimant’s averment in its affidavit in support that the application is also for summary judgment is misconceived as no application for summary judgment is properly before the court.
