    • Abstract:
      The article reports that the Panama Canal Authority (ACP) is proposing a plan for container ships. Topics include that it would assess a fee on empty containers being returned to Asia; increase tolls for other types of ships carrying laden and empty containers; and use the tolls to fund a series of reservoirs that would keep the canal supplied with fresh water.
