Box 149 Santa Ana, CA 92702-0149 Re: Net Tonnage for the Application of Vessel Exemption Assignment No.: 11-258 Dear Mr. : This is in response to your October 5, 2011, facsimile concerning "vessels of more than 50 tons burden" as that term is used in Section 3, subdivision (l) of Article XIII of the California Constitution, which provides a property tax exemption for vessels over 50 tons burden used to transport freight and passengers. As hereinafter discussed, as determined by the California Court of Appeal in Kiessig v. San Diego County (1942) 51 Cal.App.2d 47, "tons burden" means the net register tonnage, and not either the gross tonnage or the tonnage as measured under the International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships of 1969 (Convention). Facts The vessel in question is a steel hull charter vessel, approximately 110 feet in length, 24 feet in breadth, and 6 feet in depth, owned by an LLC and operated by a vessel charter company. It was exempted from assessment in 2008, 2009, and 2010 as a vessel of more than 50 tons burden in California and engaged in the transportation of freight and passengers.

(Tech.) Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Eero Järvenpää Title of thesis Development of a dynamic performance-based distribution scheme for bulk shipping pools Degree programme Mechanical Engineering Major Naval Architecture Code K3005 Thesis supervisor Professor Pentti Kujala Thesis advisor Jouni Salo, Product Manager, Shipping Solutions Date 04.02.2016 Number of pages 62 +19 Language English Abstract Shipping industry is the vehicle behind global economy enabling the transportation of large quantities of raw materials, products and commodities to almost anywhere in the world with unit costs and unit emissions unattainable by any other mode of transport. While the unit cost and unit emissions of seaborne transportation are substantially low, the shipping industry is far from being a green industry and there is a lot of room to improve the energy efficiency and to reduce emissions of shipping. The scattered shipping industry has a wide variety of practices to improve its energy efficiency from basically non-existing to high-tech solutions with real-time-monitoring and advanced utilisation of big data tools. This study concentrates on shipping pools, their operational energy efficiency and how it relates to their distribution schemes. Shipping pool is the primary form of co-operation between shipowners. This study investigates the currently prevailing distribution schemes for shipping pools and proposes a new way of accounting for operational energy efficiency utilising the Energy Efficiency Operational Index EEOI as the key metric.

Dr.Elsayed Hussien Galall Vice director of Suez Canal transit department Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Container is growing faster than GDP, Shipping lines always attempt to augment efficiency by reducing cost and by attracting larger volumes of containers. As a result rising container freight rates the lines have been driven to increase economic of scale, by building mega ships and fewer mere efficient port calls. In 2011 Maersk line ordered up to 20 new “Triple- E “Class of container vessels delivers between 2013- 2015. These class of mega container vessels have its way through Suez Canal, other companies CMA, CGM also ordered this type of mega container vessels, in order to reach higher profits due to the achieved economics of scale It is believed that 20000 TEU could be the next target size. Present mega container fleet and any future feasible potential vessel capacity expansion more than 18000 TEU put Suez Canal route in strong competitive position. Meanwhile Panama Canal will not be able to handle vessels larger than 12600 TEU even after its expansion in 2015. Keywords: Triple – E Vessels – Tonnage measurement – Suez Canal rules. INTRODUCTION Various types of vessels transit Suez Canal , on top of these come container vessels, representing 56% of total Suez Canal net tonnages and 60% of Suez Canal total revenues. Specifications and characteristics of Triple –E vessels have been studied . It worth mentioning that Triple-E vessel pay about one million US dollar dues when transiting Suez Canal.
