As the supply chain = supply network continues to be disrupted, with goods not reaching stores in various parts of the United States, shipping companies will be fined from next month for stagnant containers hindering logistics at the port of Los Angeles in the west. It was decided.
At the Port of Los Angeles, there is a shortage of truck drivers and other personnel to carry luggage, and a large number of containers are stagnant, and container ships that cannot unload cargo are waiting offshore.
Therefore, on the 29th, officials such as the Los Angeles Port Authority held an urgent meeting, and after the container was unloaded at the port, it stayed from the 9th day for truck transportation and from the 6th day for rail transportation. We have decided to impose a $ 100 fine on shipping for each container.
In addition, a fine of $ 100 per container will be added daily for each delayed removal.
President Biden has offered support to put the Port of Los Angeles on a 24-hour basis in order to resolve the logistics turmoil, but the turmoil has not been resolved at all, and severe fines will improve the situation. I did.
