The Secretary of the Treasury may allow certain bonded transport between New York, Newark, and Perth Amboy when it serves commerce.
The Secretary of the Treasury may, when it appears to serve commerce, allow imported merchandise that has been entered and examined for customs purposes to travel between the ports of New York, Newark, and Perth Amboy by bonded cartmen or bonded lightermen. This is allowed despite a law or regulation requiring a bonded common carrier. All three ports are in Customs Collection District Number 10 (New York). This authority must not be read to take away any affected port’s rights or privileges as a port of entry.
The Secretary of the Treasury be, and he is, authorized, when it appears to him to be in the interest of commerce, and notwithstanding any provision of law or regulation requiring that the transportation of imported merchandise be by a bonded common carrier, to permit such merchandise which has been entered and examined for customs purposes to be transported by bonded cartmen or bonded lightermen between the ports of New York, Newark, and Perth Amboy, which are all included in Customs Collection District Numbered 10 (New York): Provided, That this resolution shall not be construed to deprive any of the ports affected of its rights and privileges as a port of entry.
