DHS Secretary Duke Signs Jones Act Waiver to Secure Fuel After Major Hurricanes Irma as well as Harvey

The UNITED STATE Department of Homeland Security on Friday stated it was momentarily forgoing the Jones Act for vessels to make certain adequate gas gets to emergency situation -responders as well as influenced locations throughout Hurricane Irma as well as following Hurricane Harvey.

The waiver was authorized Friday by Department of Homeland Security Acting Secretary Elaine Duke as well as will certainly hold for 7 days. The waiver is especially customized to transport of polished oil items in hurricane-affected locations. It consists of deliveries of gas, diesel, as well as jet gas from New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, as well as Louisiana to South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, as well as Puerto Rico.

The DHS stated the waiver will certainly make certain that over the following week, all choices are offered to disperse gas to states as well as regions influenced by Hurricanes Harvey as well as Irma, both of which have actually become historical tornados.

The Jones Act calls for that freight delivered in between factors in the united state be moved on vessels that are integrated in the United States as well as had as well as as well as crewed by American people.

The waiver will certainly permit oil as well as gas drivers to utilize usually more affordable or quicker offered foreign-flagged vessels to relocate oil freights within the influenced locations.

“This is a precautionary measure to ensure we have enough fuel to support lifesaving efforts, respond to the storm, and restore critical services and critical infrastructure operations in the wake of this potentially devastating storm,” stated Acting Secretary Duke.

“Hurricane Harvey significantly disrupted the distribution of fuel across the Southeastern states, and those states will soon experience one of the largest mass evacuations in American history while at the same time we’ll see historic movements through those states of restoration and response crews, followed by goods and commodities back into the devastated areas.”

The last Jones Act waiver was released in December 2012, for oil items to be provided for alleviation support in the after-effects of Hurricane Sandy.
