"You will face multi‑million dollar fines": New Jersey governor urged the state's ports not to accept tankers carrying Russian diesel
New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill on Monday, 2 November, sent letters to twelve port and terminal operators in the state. She urged them not to accept tankers carrying Russian diesel fuel and warned that violations could result in multimillion‑dollar fines.
As The New York Times reports, in her appeals Sherrill said she is prepared to use all available legal and regulatory mechanisms to prevent the unloading of Russian fuel. At the same time, it is not yet known whether such vessels are headed directly to New Jersey.
