AGENCY: Department of the Army, DOD.

ACTION:  Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command 
(SDDC), as the Traffic Manager for Department of Defense (DOD) Personal 
Property Program, is reminding the Transportation Service Provider 
(TSP) community of SDDC's increase in Cargo Liability Insurance. The 
Amount Per Shipment increases from $22,500 to $50,000 Amount Per 
Shipment for all shipment movement of Personal Property (Domestic, 
International and Mobile Homes/Boats) within the Families First Phase 
II program utilizing the Defense Personal Property System (DPS). This 
announcement is made pursuant to Families First, Phase II, Business 
Rules, E, TSP Qualifications, 2.1.9.
    Effective immediately, all shipments moving within the DPS program 
will move at the minimum Cargo Liability Insurance of $50,000 Amount 
Per Shipment.
    SDDC will require certificates of the higher insurance as the DPS 
system is capable of accepting such certificates electronically, but 
this is effective now and will not be delayed due to delay in filing 
electronically the proof of the higher insurance amount.

DATES: Effective immediately, all shipments moving within the DPS 
program will move at the minimum Cargo Liability Insurance of $50,000 
Amount Per Shipment.
