ME News, April 24 (UTC+8), the Trump administration extended the Jones Act-related shipping waiver for 90 days, aimed at facilitating the transport of oil, fuel, and fertilizers within the United States. The decision extends the existing waiver, originally set to expire on May 17, by about three months, allowing foreign-flagged vessels to transport goods between U.S. ports until mid-August. Normally, under the 1920 Jones Act, goods transported by water between U.S. domestic ports must be carried on U.S.-flagged, U.S.-built, and U.S.-owned vessels. Trump’s waiver temporarily removes these restrictions for coal, crude oil, refined petroleum products, natural gas, natural gas liquids, fertilizers, and other energy derivatives. (Source: PANews)
