The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) today announced an Interim Final Rule (IFR) implementing the Certified Cargo Screening Program (CCSP) – a system TSA will use to fulfill the air cargo security requirements of the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007 (9/11 Act). The IFR also mandates screening of 100 percent by August 2010.

PLC is proud to extend its “POWER LANE PRICING” for our New York and New Jersey shippers. Westbound LTL service is destined for Los Angeles and Southern California. Special lane pricing was implemented in May 2008 to provide maximum savings for our clients. This program has proved successful for all parties concerned, so we are happy to extend it until further notice. All shipments will be picked up Monday through Friday in the two-state area. Teams will be released every Friday with arrival in Los Angeles on Monday of the following week. Our very own, PLC Expedited (PLCX) will transport this product cross-country and will be tracked by satellite every step of the way.
