Since the closure of Ports America, the Port of Oakland has been aiding in the transition of cargo volumes by subsidizing off-hour gates (i.e., nights and weekends). The subsidy was always intended to be a short-term fix and will expire the end of this month.
As we know and have experienced, SSA needs additional hours to process the number transactions necessary to keep containers moving. In order to continue to provide extended hours, effective June 27, 2016, SSA in Oakland will begin assessing a $30 fee on all loaded containers regardless of the time of day the transaction is made.
SSA will use the $30 to fund continued night gates. These night gates will be Monday through Thursday from 6:00pm to 3:00am and will service exports, empties and imports.
This model is different than PierPass in Southern California, which places a fee on all containers moved on the day side and moves on the nights and weekends are free. Spreading the fee across all containers keeps it lower and having no “free” hours will help even out the flow of containers across both shifts.
The below information is quoted from SSA’s advisory on the subject:
