Drug enforcement activity and Fines – USA
Drug enforcement activity in the United States targeting the trafficking of drugs entering the United States of America via merchant vessels continues to impact the Club in the guise of fines levied against unsuspecting ships.
The Club continues to see hefty fines imposed by American authorities on entered vessels on which drugs have been found.
Recent cases cost the Club almost $500K in fines after United States Coast Guard (USCG) and Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) officers searched and found significant quantities of Cocaine onboard three entered vessels.
