✦ Plain-Language Summary

This law updates the fees that licensed pilots charge to guide large ships safely through New York Harbor waterways near Sandy Hook, Sands Point, and Execution Rocks. These pilots are trained professionals who board vessels and navigate them through complex or dangerous waters. The updated rates help ensure piloting services remain available and fairly compensated for the safe movement of commercial shipping in and around New York.
