Ladies and Gentlemen:
In
connection with the acceleration request of U.S. Shipping Partners L.P. (the
“Registrant”) dated October 25, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 461 promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and as requested in the Staff’s comment
letter dated September 10, 2004, the Registrant hereby acknowledges that:
·
should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant
to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the
Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;
·
the action of the Commission or the staff, acting
pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the Registrant from its full responsibility for the adequacy and
accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
·
the Registrant may not assert this action as a
defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the
federal securities laws of the United States.
If
you require additional information, please call Roy Goldman at (212) 318-3219
