Potential California Hazmat Fee (Update – December 7, 2016)
In November 2016, a federal judicial order blocked California from imposing a $45 fee on shippers of hazardous materials transported by rail in the state. The State of California is appealing, but in the meantime, the state has voluntarily agreed to an order that would forbid them from imposing assessing the charge retroactively. So should the courts later decide to reinstate the California Hazmat Charge, the charge will only be assessed on shipments initiated from the date of the future court ruling.
New Billing Procedure (effective January 1, 2017)
Effective January 1, 2017 the SAV will no longer be a handling carrier for the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) and will become an interline connecting carrier partner, with interchange at McClellan Park, CA.
This means that the Union Pacific (UP) will no longer be shown as directly serving SAV stations and therefore, the SAV must be shown as a carrier in bill of lading routing.
