S2.E9 - We're talking chassis!

Topic of the Week (3/3/23):

Today we're talking about chassis! You know, the metal frames that have wheels that allow the otherwise wheel-less container boxes to actually move! The Federal Maritime Commission has a pending case and there is a Best Practices Study underway! 

The Maritime Professorᵀᴹ presents By Land and By Sea - an attorney breaking down the week in supply chain

with Lauren Beagen (Founder of The Maritime Professorᵀᴹ and Squall Strategies)

Let's dive in...

1- We're still on supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking watch! The Federal Maritime Commission's Unreasonable Refusal to Deal or Negotiate with respect to Vessel Space Accommodations Final Rule was required (under OSRA 22) to be released December 16, 2022, but they announced they would be publishing a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking. We'll be on the lookout!

2- Speaking of rules - we have three rules we're watching out of the Federal Maritime Commission 1) Unreasonable refusal to deal or negotiate w/r/t vessel space accommodations, 2) Detention and demurrage billing and invoice requirements, 3) Unjust or unjust discriminatory methods

3- Are the International  Longshore Warehouse Union (ILWU) and Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) making progress?
