Container Dwell Fee’ Remains on Hold Until Dec. 6

SAN PEDRO — The Port of Los Angeles and the Port of Long Beach announced Nov. 29, a further postponement of the “Container Dwell Fee.” After meetings today with U.S. Port Envoy John Porcari, ocean liner companies and marine terminal operators, the two ports said the fee will not be considered prior to Dec. 6.

Since the fee was announced on Oct. 25, the twin ports have seen a combined decline of 37% in aging cargo on the docks. The executive directors of both ports will reassess fee implementation after another week of monitoring data.
