    expense of the Ocean Carrier.  Carrier may pick-up

    or deliver shipments at a port other than

    the originally intended port, for transfer

    to another Port of Loading, or to the originally

    intended Port of Discharge.  In no event shall any

    such transfer or arrangements under which it

    is performed be such as to result directly or

    indirectly in any lessening or increasing of the

    cost or expense which the Shipper would have borne

    had the shipment loaded or cleared through the port

    originally intended.

Application of rates and charges

RULE: 2 - APPLICATION OF RATES AND CHARGES Eff: 01/05/2021

1. Rates apply from end of ship's tackle at Port of

Loading to end of ship's tackle at Port of Discharge or

From/To Inland Point at Origin/Destination To/From Port

of Loading/Discharge and, unless otherwise specifically

provided, do not include Lighterage, Terminal Handling,

Wharfage or any other Accessorial Charges which are

established by Custom of the Port, by Port or Local

Tariffs or by U.S. Customs.  Any Accessorial Charges

which are assessed against the cargo will be for the

account of the cargo, even if the Carrier is responsible

for the collection thereof.

2. Rates are stated in terms of U.S. Currency and apply

per 1000 Kilos (W) or 1 Cubic Meter (M), as indicated,

whichever yields the greater revenue, except as otherwise

specified.  Where the word "Weight" or the letter "W"

appears next to an article or commodity, weight rates are

applicable without regard to measurement.  Where the

word "Measurement" or the letter "M" appears next to an

article or commodity, measurement rates are applicable

without regard to weight.

    All freight rates and other charges shall be based on

the actual gross weight and/or overall measurement of

each piece or package, except as otherwise provided.

    Rates indicated by WM are optional weight or

measurement rates and the rate yielding the greater

revenue will be charged.

3. Packages containing articles of more than one

description shall be rated on the basis of the rate pro-

vided for the highest rated articles contained therein,

except as otherwise provided in this Tariff.

4. Except as otherwise provided, rates do not include

Marine Insurance or Consular Fees.

5. For Outbound Cargo, description of commodities shall

be uniform on all copies of the Bill of Lading and MUST

be in conformity with the validated United States Custom

Declaration or Export Declaration covering the shipment.

Carrier MUST verify the Bill of Lading description with

the validated United States Custom Declaration, Custom

Entry or Export Declaration including Schedule "B"

Number and Dock Receipt.  Shipper amendments in the

description of the goods will only be accepted if

validated by United States Customs.

    Trade Names are not acceptable commodity descrip-

tions and Shippers are required to declare their

commodity by its generally accepted generic or common

name.

    If Shippers are not covered by a Shipper's Export

Declaration as permitted by Export Control Regulations,

Shippers must type on B/L "No SED required as per Rule

30.78" and insert the applicable commodity Schedule B

number in the Line-copy of the Bill of Lading.

    On Outbound Cargo, for shipment of commodities on

which the applicable rate is determined on the basis of

a value scale, Shippers must insert the value of the

goods as declared for Customs purposes in the Line copy

of the Bill of Lading in addition to the commodity

Schedule B number.

6. Unless otherwise specified, when the rates are

based on the value of the commodity, such commodity

value will be the F.O.B. or F.A.S. value at the Port

of Loading as indicated on the Commercial Invoice, the

Custom Entry, the Export Declaration or the Shipper's

Certificate of Origin.  The F.O.B. value and the F.A.S.

value include all expenses up to delivery at the Loading

Port.

7. At Shipper's request, rates may be predicated on a

value lower than the Bill of Lading limit of value or on

an Ad Valorem basis.

8. Except as otherwise provided, rates apply only to

the specific commodity named and cannot be applied to

analogous articles.  Unless a commodity is specifically

provided for, the Cargo, N.O.S., Dangerous/Hazardous

Cargo, N.O.S. or Refrigerated Cargo, N.O.S. rate will

apply.  (For definition of Hazardous Cargo, see Rule 16)

9. Wherever rates are provided for named articles,

the same rate will also be applicable on parts

of such articles where so described in the Ocean Bill

of Lading, except where specific rates are provided for

such parts.

10. Unless otherwise provided, Breakbulk and LCL Rates

apply on cargo delivered to Carrier's Terminal.  Con-

tainers are to be picked up at Carrier's CY, and chassis

or flatbed must be provided by the Shipper.

11. FORCE MAJEURE CLAUSE: "Without prejudice to any

rights or privileges of the Carrier's under-covering

Bills of Lading, Dock Receipts, or Booking Contracts or

under applicable provisions of law, in the event of war,

hostilities, warlike operations, embargoes, blockades,

port congestion, strikes or labor disturbances, regula-

tions of any governmental authority pertaining thereto

or any other official interferences with commercial

intercourse arising from the above conditions and

affecting the Carrier's operations, the Carrier reserves

the right to cancel any outstanding booking or contract

if in conformity with the Shipping Act of 1984, the

Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 1998 and Federal Maritime

Commission Regulations, by tariff publication, any

affected rate or rates in order to meet such conditions."

12. For the movement of cargo from/to Inland Points, at

Shipper's request, the Ocean Carrier will arrange for

transportation Via Overland Carrier.  Overland Carriers

will be utilized on an availability of service basis and

NOT restricted to any preferred Carriers, except as

Carrier deems necessary to guarantee safe and efficient

movement of said cargo.

Carrier shall NOT be obligated to transport the goods in

any particular type of container or by any particular

Vessel, Train, Motor or Air Carrier, or in time for any

particular market or otherwise than with reasonable

dispatch.  Selection of Water Carriers, Railways, Motor

or Air Carrier used for all or any portion of the

transportation of the goods shall be within the sole

discretion of the Carrier.

13. Commodities which are restricted to "Stowage on

Deck" in accordance with Code of Federal Regulations

(Title 46, Shipping, Parts 146-149) shall be accorded the

rates for Dangerous Cargo.

Where commodity descriptions in this tariff name

more than one commodity, rates shall apply on mixed

shipments of 2 or more of the commodities named, in

any combination thereof.

15. ADVANCE CHARGES - CARRIER ARRANGED SERVICE:

On port-to-port shipments, Shipper may request Carrier

to arrange for pick-up service at origin and/or delivery

service at destination.  Carrier will arrange for pick-up

and/or delivery service and Carrier shall advance all

charges for such services arranged on behalf of

the Shipper. 

16. HAZARDOUS CARGO RATES:

Except as otherwise provided, TRIs filed in this tariff or NRA’s

apply on Hazardous Cargo ONLY when the TRI Hazard Code

is "HAZ" or Hazardous Cargo is otherwise indicated in NRA.  TRIs with the Hazard Code "NHZ" or NRA absent a

specific Hazard Code may NOT be applied to Hazardous

Cargo unless the specific Commodity Description for

the TRI or NRA applies for Hazardous or Dangerous cargo only.

Cargo Declaration Rule

RULE: 2.1 - CARGO DECLARATION RULE Eff: 01/05/2021

1. Submission of Cargo Declaration Data; Deadline for

Same: All shippers of cargo on board a vessel that will

call in the United States, for U.S. import cargo, and

foreign destination cargo on board a vessel that will

call in the United States, must submit the information

named below regarding such cargo to the Carrier in

writing, including by electronic transmission, not later

than 24 hours prior to the receipt of the cargo by the

Carrier.

A1. A precise description of the cargo, or the 6-digit

HTS number under which cargo is classified, and weight

of the cargo or, for a sealed container, the shipper's

declared description and weight of the cargo. The

quantity of cargo shall be expressed in the lowest

external packaging unit. For example, a container

containing 10 pallets with 200 cases shall be described

as 200 cases. Generic descriptions such as "Cargo, NOS",

"FAK", "Freight, All Kinds", "General Cargo",

"Chemicals", "Foodstuffs", and "Said to Contain" are not

acceptable descriptions.

A2. Shipper's complete name and address, or the

identification number issued to the shipper by the U.S.

Customs Service upon implementation of the Automated

Commercial Environment ("ACE").

A3. Complete name and address of the consignee, owner or

owner's representative, or its ACE identification

number.

A4. Internationally recognized hazardous material code

when such materials are being shipped.

A5. Seal numbers for all seals affixed to the container.

1. Certain Non-Vessel-Operating Common Carriers:

Non-vessel-operating common carriers ("NVOCCs") that are

licensed by or registered with the FMC and that have

obtained U.S. Customs bonds may submit the required

inbound cargo declaration data directly to the U.S.

Customs Service. For the purpose of this term, an NVOCC

is registered with the FMC if it has been issued an

Organization Number by the FMC, published a valid and

effective tariff, and posted the required financial

security with the FMC.

B1. Any FMC licensed or registered NVOCC with a U.S.

Customs bond that tenders cargo that will be on board a

vessel when it calls in the United States and provides

the required cargo declaration data for that cargo

directly to the U.S. Customs Service shall also be

required to fulfill the information requirements of

Paragraph A above, regardless of the fact that the

information has been submitted directly to U.S. Customs.

B2. NVOCC Co-Loading: For purposes of this subparagraph,

the term "Master NVOCC" shall mean the NVOCC that is the

customer of the VOCC and tenders co-loaded cargo to the

VOCCC in its name. In the event the Master NVOCC submits

cargo declaration data for co-loaded cargo directly to

the U.S. Customs Service, it shall do so for all NVOCCs

with which it co-loads. In the event the Master NVOCC

does not submit cargo declaration data for co-loaded

cargo directly to the U.S. Customs Service, but NVOCCs

with which it co-loads transmit cargo declaration data

for their cargoes directly to the U.S. Customs Service,

it shall be the obligation of the Master NVOCC to

provide the VOCC with the information described in

paragraph A with respect to all co-loaded cargo tendered

to the VOCC by the Master NVOCC.

1. Failure to Provide Information; Denial of Permission

to Load Cargo:

C1. Carrier may refuse to load any cargo tendered to it

for which it has not received the data required by

paragraph A of this Rule.

C2. Any and all costs incurred by Carrier with respect

to cargo in its possession which is not loaded due to

the failure to provide information or certification, or

which is not loaded pursuant to the instructions of the

U.S. Customs Service, regardless of whether or not the

required data or certification has been provided for

such cargo, including but not limited to inspection,

storage and/or re-delivery costs, shall be for the

account of the cargo. Carrier shall have a lien on cargo

in its possession for amounts due hereunder and may hold

cargo until such amounts, and any other unpaid freights

or charges, are paid or sell such cargo after a

reasonable period. In the event Carrier is forced to

take legal action to collect amounts due hereunder,

Carrier shall be entitled to recover all costs,

including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with

such legal action.

1. Indemnification of Carrier: If Carrier is assessed a

civil penalty or denied permission to unload cargo, then

any and all shippers, consignees, cargo owners, NVOCCs

and their agent(s) that failed to provide the

information required by this Rule and/or by the

regulations of the U.S. Customs Service in a complete

and accurate manner shall be jointly and severally

liable to indemnify and reimburse Carrier for any such

penalty and any and all costs incurred by the Carrier as

a result of the denial of permission to unload cargo.

Carrier shall have a lien on cargo in its possession for

amounts due hereunder and may hold cargo until such

amounts, and any other unpaid freights or charges, are

paid or sell such cargo after a reasonable period. In

the event Carrier is forced to take legal action to

collect amounts due hereunder, Carrier shall be entitled

to recover all costs, including attorneys' fees,

incurred in connection with such legal action.

FDA Prior Notice Rule

RULE: 2.2 - FDA PRIOR NOTICE RULE Eff: 01/05/2021

1. Prior Notice and Registration Requirements:

Pursuant to regulations effective December 12, 2003

(see 21 C.F.R. Parts 1 and 20), the FDA must be provided

with notice of food that is imported or offered for

import into the United States (i.e., the continental

U.S., Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico) by water at least

eight (8) hours prior to vessel arrival.  The term

"food" means: (i) articles used for food or drink for

man or other animals; (ii) chewing gum; and (iii) and

articles used for components of food or chewing gum (see

21 U.S.C. Sec. 321(f)).  However, the term does not include

meat products, poultry products, and eggs products that

are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S.

Department of Agriculture.  In addition to prior notice

of food shipments, the new FDA regulations require that

U.S. and foreign facilities which are engaged in the

manufacturing/processing, packing, or holding of food

for consumption in the United States ("subject

facilities") register with the FDA.

1. Responsibility for Prior Notice and Registration:

It shall be the responsibility of the shipper and/or

consignee named in Carrier's bill of lading

(hereinafter collectively referred to as the

"Cargo Interests"), to ensure that prior

notice of any shipment of food (as that term is

defined in Paragraph A) imported or offered for import

into the U.S. is provided to the FDA in accordance with

applicable regulations and that any subject facility

(other than a subject facility of Carrier) which has

manufactured, processed, packed or held such food

shipment has registered with the FDA in accordance with

applicable regulations.

1. Evidence of Compliance:

With respect to any food shipment for which a prior notice

confirmation number ("PN Number") is required to be

provided to the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection

("CBP"), FDA, or any other government agency upon

arrival, it shall be the responsibility of Cargo

Interests to ensure that such PN Number has been

provided to the required agency(ies) and other persons

prior to vessel arrival.  In addition, Cargo Interests

shall be required to provide Carrier with the PN Number

immediately upon written request of Carrier.

1. Failure to Comply:

1. In the event that any food shipment is delayed

or refused entry into the United States due to

the failure to provide adequate prior notice or the

failure of a subject facility to register with the FDA,

it is expected that notice of refusal will be provided

to Carrier by the FDA and/or CBP.  Carrier will use best

efforts to promptly transmit the notice received from

the authorities to the Cargo Interests, who shall be

responsible for transmitting such notice to any other

persons with an interest in the cargo.  Carrier shall

not be liable for any delay in the transmission of, or

failure to transmit, such notice or any consequences

thereof.

2. In the event that any food shipment is delayed

or refused entry into the United States due to

the failure to provide adequate prior notice or the

failure of a subject facility (other than a subject

facility of Carrier) to register with the FDA, or if it

is determined that cargo which should have been refused

entry has been permitted to enter the United States,

then the Cargo Interests shall be jointly and severally

liable to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse

Carrier (and by booking a shipment with Carrier do

thereby agree to indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse

Carrier) for any and all costs, expenses, liabilities,

damages, or losses incurred by the Carrier as a result

of such non-compliance including, but not limited to,

costs of complying with orders and directions of FDA

and/or CBP, costs for handling and storing cargo,

demurrage, subsequent transport of the cargo by any mode

of transportation, and fines and penalties.  Carrier

shall have a lien on cargo in its possession for amounts

due hereunder and may hold cargo until such amounts (and

any other unpaid freights or charges) are paid or sell

such cargo after a reasonable period.  In the event

Carrier is forced to take legal action to collect

amounts due hereunder, or to defend any action resulting

from actions or events covered by this indemnification,

Carrier shall be entitled to recover all costs

(including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with

such legal action.  For purposes of this paragraph, the

indemnification provided to Carrier shall also extend to

its agents, affiliates, contractors, employees,

vessel-sharing partners, slot charterers, vessel owners,

and insurers.

Customs Inspection/Delay of Container and Cargo

RULE: 2.3 - CUSTOMS INSPECTION/DELAY OF CONTAINER AND CARGO Eff: 01/05/2021

Should any Customs Service or other governmental authority

order or require cargo to be discharged or unloaded from

container for inspection or examination, or should any

Customs Service or other governmental authority impound,

seize or detain cargo or container for any reason, all

charges and expenses, including any applicable demurrage,

detention or per diem charges, will be for the account of

the cargo. Moreover, Carrier will assume no risk or

liability for the actions or omissions of such Customs

Services, governmental authorities or their agents.
