Port of L.A. to waive tariffs for shippers delivering donations to Japan

The Port of Los Angeles will waive its tariff for shippers who deliver donated goods as part of the earthquake and tsunami relief effort in Japan, Dailybreeze reports citing the LA Port Authority.

A letter will be delivered to the port's tenants to let them know that the tariff will be waived for shipments from charitable organizations, said Geraldine Knatz, executive director of the Port of Los Angeles.

In a related move, tsunami warning signs have been posted along the port's waterfront, showing inundation areas and evacuation routes for local residents and workers, Knatz said.
