Fenix Marine Services (Pier 300)
Fenix Marine Services (CMA CGM group) · Los Angeles / Long Beach · USLAX
The San Pedro Bay complex runs twelve container terminals under two port authorities. Appointment scarcity, not vessel delay, is the leading cause of demurrage here, and a day with no available dual-transaction slot is not merchant-caused under the FMC rule.
Which clock is whose
CMA CGM group demurrage runs on the carrier filing; Fenix storage runs on its own tariff. Group-brand bills of lading (APL, ANL) are filed separately from CMA CGM.
Gate & appointments
Appointment gate with peel-off and free-flow programmes for high-volume importers.
Chassis
Pool of pools; peel-off moves usually run on a dedicated chassis arrangement.
What is usually reversible
A booking on an APL or ANL bill of lading rated on the CMA CGM schedule is mis-rated. US import: under the FMC rule (46 CFR 541) a demurrage or detention invoice must carry specified information and the charge must serve a genuine incentive purpose. A defective invoice eliminates the obligation to pay.
