|
(a) |
Wharfage is the charge assessed against cargo or merchandise, vessel's stores, fuel and supplies for passage on, over, under or through any wharf, pier, or bank controlled by the Port of Sacramento or between vessels or overside vessels (to or from barge, lighter or water) when berthed at a wharf, pier or bank controlled by the Port of Sacramento. (See Note 1) |
|
|
(b) |
Wharfage is due from the owners of the cargo or merchandise, vessel's stores, fuel and supplies on which wharfage is assessed. The collection of wharfage must be guaranteed by the vessel, her owners or operators and the use of a wharf or wharves by the vessel, her owners or operators shall be deemed an acceptance and acknowledgment of this guarantee. Wharfage shall be due and payable upon presentation. (see Exception) |
|
|
Exception: |
When it is requested that the wharfage charges be assessed and collected directly from the cargo owner or a federal agency, and where satisfactory guarantee of payment is given to the terminal, the wharfage charges will be assessed and collected from the cargo owner or federal agency making the request in lieu of collection from the vessel as provided above. |
|
|
Note 1: |
Wharfage rates do no include assorting, weighing, marking, sampling, inspecting, coopering, recording marked weights or numbers, or unloading to or from railroad cars or motor vehicles, stevedoring, demurraging, handling, customs charges, revenue stamps or fees of any nature imposed by the State or Federal Government against the shipment or vessels transporting the same. |
