Port of Oakland Trucker's Work Group

West State Alliance founded the Truck Work Group (TWG) in 2007 as the result of an initiative by independent truckers to improve relations with Port of Oakland administration. The group is co-chaired by a representative each from the Port and from the trucking industry who together select program topics and speakers. (more about TWG)

Call to Action

Senate Bill No. 45

The spirit of the law is

simple. It is not reasonable to charge demurrage or per diem fees when the container is inaccessible to the truck driver, the gate is closed so the driver cannot drop off that container or the driver is turned away because of congestion.

Unfortunately, despite the law being in effect there is a gross disregard of it by some of the steamship lines and their marine terminal operators. WSA is requesting members to send us examples of non-compliance so we can determine how to assist in notifying the offending parties about the law.

Please logon and go to the SB 45 Violation page and share your story.
