When a specific method, type or size of packing or
packaging is specified in an individual TLI (Rate Item)
named in this Tariff, such rate will ONLY apply on
Shipments of the commodity so packed or packaged. 
Additionally, all shipments will be SBJ to the following
packing and marking provisions:
     
a. All shipments tendered to Carrier for transportation
   MUST be packed in a manner that will insure safe
   transportation with ordinary care and due diligence on
   the part of the Carrier.  Such packing shall at least
   meet the standards set for shipping within the
   boundaries of the United States, and shall at least be,
   in the sole judgment of the Carrier, adequate to protect
   the cargo from damage during ordinary handling and ocean
   transportation.  Carrier will assume no liability for
   any damage to cargo caused by negligent, improper or
   inadequate packing or packaging.  If Carrier elects to
   accept cargo tendered for shipment loose or not packaged
   or crated, Carrier, at its option will either package or
   crate cargo to provide protection during through
   transportation, or will accept such cargo SBJ to
   paragraph c.1 herein.  When Carrier elects to provide
   packaging or crating, all charges for packaging and/or
   construction of crates will be for the account of the
   cargo.  Additionally, when Carrier packages or crates
   cargo for transport, freight charges shall be calculated
   on the gross weight of the cargo and packaging or the
   overall dimensions of the package(s) as specified in
   Rule 2.2.
     
b. Except on FCL shipments subject to Rule 2.23 ("Shipper
   Load, Stow and Count"), shipments of Lumber and shipments
   of Cotton, baled, each individual piece, package, carton,
   bundle or unit included in a shipment MUST bear: Marks
   and Numbers, Place of Destination and Origin (including
   country), and the Name and Address of the Consignee,
   Shipper and notify party.  In the case of a shipment
   moving on an "Order Notify" B/L, or which is consigned
   "C.O.D.," each piece, package, carton, bundle or unit
   MUST also be marked accordingly.  The Carrier will NOT
   be responsible for Shipper's failure to observe the
   marking regulations of the destination country, NOR for
   the accuracy of Shipper furnished labels and/or
   information used to prepare such labels.
     
c. SPECIAL PACKAGING REQUIREMENTS:
     
 1. Any single article, which by its nature, may be shipped
    without danger of damage in ordinary handling while
    lacking boxing, crating or wrapping will be accepted as
    suitably packed for transportation when tendered to the
    Carrier without boxing, crating, wrapping or other
    packaging.
      
 2. Vehicles, new or used, not in containers, will be
    received and accepted for transportation without
    boxing, crating, wrapping or other packaging.  Further
    Carrier, Ship Owner, Stevedore and/or Terminal Operator
    will NOT perform or provide technical inspection and/or
    check of Vehicle's inside or outside equipment and/or
    accessories.  Therefore, Carrier, Ship Owner, Stevedore
    and/or Terminal Operator will neither be liable for,
    nor responsible for, any loss, damage or non-operation
    of any Vehicle's equipment and/or accessories unless
    such loss or damage is directly due to the negligence
    or because of the actions of Carrier, Ship Owner,
    Stevedore or Terminal Operator.  Additionally, Carrier,
    Ship Owner, Stevedore and Terminal Operator will not be
    liable for loss and/or damage to any loose articles or
    cargo left in or packed inside Vehicle at the time
    vehicle is tendered for transportation.  Shipper must
    separately tender such loose articles or cargo as a
    separate shipment which will be transported on a
    separate B/L from the B/L covering the Vehicle.
        
 3. Articles of glass, crockery or contained in glass or
    crockery as well as all other fragile articles MUST be
    packed in such a manner as to protect cargo against any
    and all damage which may occur during normal handling and
    transportation, and MUST be clearly marked to indicate to
    the Carrier the true nature of the cargo.  Regardless of
    any other provisions named in this Tariff, all cargo of
    glass, crockery or any other fragile articles will be
    accepted at Carrier's option ONLY, and once accepted
    shall be handled and transported at cargo owner's risk of
    breakage.
