U.S. maritime regulator proposes $200,000 fee on Spanish vessels and import restrictions
On October 14 the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission proposed a $200,000 per-voyage fee on Spanish-flagged ships calling at U.S. ports and possible restrictions on categories of Spanish imports, after finding Spain's port-denial practices unfavorable to U.S. shipping. The measures are proposals, not current charges or import bans, and public comment and possible hearings precede any final rule.
