Los Angeles Harbor Department faces potential penalties up to one million dollars for alleged Shipping Act violations tied to Matson Terminals land use adjacent to its terminal. General Manager Fred Crawford says charges likely amount to a technical violation and expects the Maritime Commission to approve the Matson arrangement or find no violation. The inquiry stems from a 1969 accord permitting Matson to develop Berths 207-209 and two nearby parcels, with two parcels used for three and a half years before billing in 1975.
