The U.S. Committee on the Marine Transportation System (CMTS) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather insights on how U.S. ports are planning for long-term environmental changes. As many ports already grapple with challenges like storm surge and coastal flooding, this RFI aims to identify the planning guidance, data sources, and grants being used—while also uncovering any barriers to future planning. Your input is vital in shaping the resilience of our marine transportation system and ensuring U.S. competitiveness. The RFI closes on Thursday, August 29, 2024. 🔗 Find the RFI here: https://lnkd.in/ePM_WMTH

On May 28, the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) published a request for comments on a series of proposed tariff increases, including a 25% tariff on all ship-to-shore gantry cranes procured from China. USTR proposed the tariff to be effective for any Chinese-sourced STS crane landed in the U.S. beginning on August 1, 2024. The USTR announced today that its public comment review continues and will likely not be completed until some time in August. The USTR's message indicates that any adopted tariffs will not come into effect until two weeks after the USTR takes its final action. NAWE continues to work with USTR to ensure that the Administration has a full understanding of the proposed tariff’s impacts. You can read the USTR's full message at the link here: https://lnkd.in/e9g4WGmb.
