The USDA is providing agricultural and other exporters assistance in covering expenses for using the pop-up yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSupply chain issues locally to globally have hampered the US export business through West Coast ports including Oakland,\u201d said Port of Oakland Executive Director Danny Wan. \u201cWe thank the USDA for providing financial incentives to our customers. This will promote use of the yard, reduce marine terminal congestion and ease some of the logistics strain for our exporters.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The temporary container yard opened March 7, 2022, as part of the Biden Administration\u2019s larger program to relieve port congestion. The USDA is offering a $400 incentive per export reefer (refrigerated container) and $200 for a \u201cdry\u201d container (non-reefer). This funding is for the temporary staging of loaded export containers. In addition, the USDA is offering a $125 incentive to pick up an empty dry container used for agricultural bookings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis will help defray the additional costs incurred by our shippers and make usage of the new facility more feasible,\u201d said Port of Oakland Maritime Director Bryan Brandes. \u201cThe temporary yard provides a place for truckers to easily pick up empty containers to be loaded with US exports and it allows for staging loaded containers ready to be shipped overseas without crowding busy terminals.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis federal partnership highlights Oakland\u2019s traditional role as a critical export gateway,\u201d added Mr. Brandes. \u201cWe continue to work closely with ocean carriers to restore services here so that shippers can have more opportunity for outbound vessel space.\u201d Maritime industry experts are saying that they expect global volatility in the supply chain to continue for months. Ship schedule disruptions continue due to multiple factors including pandemic impacts on trucking and marine terminal operations at China\u2019s largest ports<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From a Port of Oakland news release Port of Oakland\u2019s new, temporary container yard is getting federal help in the form of financial relief for its customers.
