U.S. allows more tankers in Northeast after Sandy - MarketWatch
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Friday said it's waiving the
Jones Act in a move to allow additional oil tankers from the Gulf of
Mexico to enter Northeastern ports after Hurricane Sandy. "This waiver
will remove a potential obstacle to bringing additional fuel to the
storm-damaged region," Janet Napolitano, secretary of Homeland Security,
said in a statement. The act, which restricts tanker movements between
U.S. ports to U.S.-flagged vessels, has been waived until Nov. 13.
