Tariff Amendment to Port of Long Beach Tariff No. 4, with Proposed Adjustments to Section 2 Dockage Rates, Section 3 Containerized and Non-Containerized WhaThe Port of Long Beach is amending Tariff No. 4 to implement a uniform 2.5% increase across a broad range of charges effective July 1, 2026. The adjustment applies to multiple tariff items including dockage, wharfage for both containerized and non-containerized commodities, demurrage, long-term storage, fresh water services, penalties, delinquent charges, and diving permit fees. This change is a routine rate revision intended to reflect operational cost increases and is legally exempt from environmental review under California Public Resources Code Section 15273, which authorizes public agencies to adjust rates, tolls, and charges without requiring environmental impact analysis. All activities associated with this amendment occur exclusively at the Port of Long Beach, California, with the Harbor Department at 415 West Ocean Boulevard serving as the primary administrative location. No formal contract vehicle, procurement number, or federal acquisition regulation clauses are involved, as this is an internal tariff update rather than a competitive solicitation or service contract. The Port of Long Beach, operating as both the lead agency and the entity responsible for implementation, has not designated any contracting officer, COR, COTR, or external contractor for this action. There is no estimated contract value, CLIN structure, payment instructions, invoicing method, or delivery schedule provided, as the amendment is regulatory in nature and does not involve the acquisition of goods or services through a traditional procurement process. Key administrative contacts include Amy Wong, Director of Environmental Planning, and Roger Wu, Director of Business Development, who serve as the primary points of contact for the initiative. There are no solicitations, offers, certifications, or representations from third parties, as this is not a competitive procurement but a statutory tariff adjustment.
