or booking contract at a rate not exceeding the prevailing rate, if any, 
for similar freight services, or the rate paid to the supplier of ocean 
transportation for similar services by other customers similarly 
situated, as attested to by the supplier in Block 13 of Form AID 1550-1, 
entitled ``Voluntary Agency and Carrier Certificate.'' (See 
Sec. 202.4(a).)
    (b) Inland freight. The amount of inland freight charges 
reimbursable to an agency is limited to the actual cost of

    (c) Related shipping costs. Where inland freight charges are 
reimbursed, expenses incurred in transferring supplies from ocean 
carrier to inland carrier may be reimbursed to the agency when such 
expenses are not for account of the ship nor included in the inland 
transportation charges.
