As provided in 46 CFR 535.701(d), the Monitoring Report form may be downloaded from the Commission’s home page at http://www.fmc.gov. Parties to agreements subject to the Monitoring Report requirements may complete and submit their Monitoring Reports in the Commission’s prescribed electronic format, either on diskette or CD-ROM.


Use of Electronic Report


An electronic version of the Monitoring Report has been prepared in Microsoft Office Word 2003 (“Word”) and allows filers to electronically fill out the required Monitoring Report and submit agreement data electronically. The tables embedded in this form contain Worksheets in Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (“Excel”). Although the format is slightly different, the form collects the same information and data collected by the Monitoring Report published in appendix B of 46 CFR part 535. To open the Worksheets, right click on the tables, select Worksheet Object, and then select Open. The Worksheet will open to the main menu in Excel (if the software is installed on your computer).


The applicable data for each agreement party may be entered directly into the Worksheet cells in the prescribed format. Alternatively, for convenience, data or Worksheets from external Excel files may be copied or imported into the Worksheet tables contained in this form. Please ensure that the format of the data in any external Excel files fully complies with the required format prescribed in appendix B of 46 CFR part 535. For technical assistance on copying or importing Excel files, please refer to Microsoft Excel Help.


To add more Worksheets (“Tabs”) within the tables, left click on Insert from the Excel menu bar, and select Worksheet. To exit the Worksheet tables when completed, left click on File from the Excel menu bar, and select “Close & Return to Monitoring_Rpt.doc” or simply left click on the Excel Close Button. The table will return to the main body of the form; however, the table will still be in the active select mode and may be deleted by accident. To deactivate the select mode, left click outside of the table area in the main body of the form. If a table is deleted by accident, it can be retrieved in Word. To retrieve a deleted table, left click on Edit from the Word menu bar, and select Undo. Once these steps have been completed, the table should be saved from within Word. To save the table, left click on File from the Word menu bar, and select Save.
