DAMAGE
FOUND RECOMMEND FOUND RECOMMEND Container was flooded with brackish water. I did silver nitrate sea water test, to confirm it. LOT 92999-1 Three carton boxes , each one with 16 pieces soap dispensers were found wet . LOT 92999-2 Thirty two carton boxes with films cameras were found wet. LOT 92999-4 Twenty four carton boxes with brass screws were found wet. LOT 92999-8 Ten carton boxes, each one with 50 pieces (average) polyester woven dresses were found wet. LOT 92999-9 Eight carton boxes, each one with 30 pieces ladies knitted dresses were found wet. LOT 92999-10 One hundred and four carton boxes, each one with 120 pieces cake or grill turners. LOT 92999-12 Five carton boxes, each one with 500 pieces water filters were found wet. LOT 92999-13 Seventeen carton boxes, each one with 144 pieces support brackets were found wet . LOT 92999 15 One hundred and fourteen carton boxes with letter opener, brass products and key chains were found wet.
My opinion is that all this three hundred and fourteen carton boxes are total lost end can be recycle only. Brackish water which flooded them is most probably contaminated and consist chemicals, oils etc. Any use of this good can be health hazardous .
CONCLUSION
Damage sighted and noted herein, is due to stowage of container at Marine Container terminal at Port Newark during a Hurricane Sandy. Please strictly follow the above mentioned recommendations in order to avoid any further damages.
