Section 28-1-02-134 - DEMURRAGE

Universal Citation: MS Code of Rules 28-1-02-134
Current through September 24, 2024

Demurrage rates named in this tariff will apply on shipments which the Port Authority allows to remain on or in its facilities beyond the expiration of free time, but the Port Authority does not guarantee to allow any shipment to remain on or in its facilities beyond free time provided in this Tariff.

After expiration of free time as provided in this Tariff, cargo shall become subject to the provisions of this Tariff applicable to demurrage, and all related charges: including handling, transfer, or other expenses shall be solely for account of the cargo and/or its owner or agents, and no responsibility is assumed therefore by the Port Authority.

After expiration of free time as provided in this Tariff, on cargo subject to demurrage charges, the Port Authority, at its own option and convenience, may place such cargo in a Public storage warehouse, or on a public storage open area at the risk and expense of the cargo. All unpaid port charges which may have accrued against the cargo at that time shall constitute a lien against said cargo. (See Cargo Section)
