The Port of South Louisiana supports the interim Covid-19 directives for vessels from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and United States Coast Guard (USCG); that non-passenger commercial vessels, with no sick crewmembers, will be permitted to enter the U.S. and conduct normal operations, with restrictions. Crewmembers on these vessels will be required under COTP authority to remain aboard the vessel except to conduct specific activities directly related to vessel cargo or provisioning operations.

Vessels shall continue to receive provisions and supplies through their agents via supply boats and placed on board by crane.
