Shippers, truckers plead for FMC per diem relief amid NY-NJ empty box backlog

"Shippers and truckers are asking the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) to block ocean carriers from charging detention and demurrage fees at the Port of New York and New Jersey because the gateway’s “crisis-level” backlog of empty containers is hampering the ability to retrieve import loads." See the original story at JOC.
