Relates to base pilotage tariffs at Sandy Hook, Sands Point and Execution Rocks
This bill establishes new base pilotage tariff rates for vessels navigating through Sandy Hook, Sands Point, and Execution Rocks waters for the years 2028 through 2032. The legislation directly affects commercial shipping companies and maritime operators by setting specific pricing tiers based on pilotage units, with rates increasing annually from 2028 to 2032. The bill modifies existing navigation law provisions to replace current tariff structures with a schedule that adjusts fees according to vessel size and usage, with larger vessels facing proportionally higher charges. These changes apply to all vessels using pilotage services in the specified locations during the covered period and take effect immediately upon passage.
