The Maritime Professor® presents By Land and By Sea Podcast – an attorney breaking down the week in supply chain
with Lauren Beagen (Founder of The Maritime Professor® and Squall Strategies®)

This week, I’m unpacking three major developments shaping the regulatory landscape in ocean shipping:

🔹 National Shipper Advisory Committee: The FMC’s federal advisory committee is heading to Georgia for its June 4 meeting—where members will discuss port efficiency, data visibility, refusal-to-deal concerns, and a proposal to establish an Ocean Carrier Advisory Committee.

🔹 Tariff Whiplash: In a 24-hour legal flip, a federal appeals court reinstated Trump-era 10% tariffs after they were struck down the day prior—leaving importers unsure what they owe heading into peak season.

🔹 Harbor Safety Committee Launch: The newly formed Rhode Island and Southern Massachusetts Harbor Safety Committee held its first meeting this week, strengthening regional coordination on maritime safety and port operations.
