Dear Customers,

 

In order to use the fast lanes, drivers in the conveyance must be in possession of a valid FAST Commercial Driver Card. The dedicated commuter lanes ( FAST LANES) clearance can only be used if:

 

  1. A FAST Approved driver carries only eligible goods of the Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) program.
  2. It is being transported by an approved C-TPAT carrier company
  3. It is being entered by an approved C-TPAT importer with a high security seal
  4. For the U.S./ Mexico border, the manufacturer must also be C-TPAT approved.

 

CBP officers will strictly enforce the law. Drivers entering the Unites Stated are subject to /compliance and enforcement checks. If a driver is found compromising any requirements of the FAST program, or violation of any law of the Unites States, officers may:

 

  • Revoke/ suspend their FAST Commercial Driver Card
  • Seize any undeclared goods and the vehicle you used to transport those goods
  • Issue penalties
  • Initiate administrative procedures; and,
  • Initiate criminal prosecution

 

Please contact us at the following email if you have any questions: Compliance@rljones.com

 

Sincerely,

We are proud to announce that we will be relocating our San Diego Corporate Headquarters from our current location on Siempre Viva Road to a new location at the Landmark at Otay business park. This new expansion into the Landmark at Otay business park will allow us to consolidate operations with our current warehouse at this same business park.

We are confident that the move into our new Corporate Headquarters will allow us to accommodate our client's needs based on the growth being projected as a result of recent changes in the global supply chain. With Near-Shoring, the boom in E-commerce, and organic growth amongst our clients, we are very excited that this expansion will allow us to grow with our industry while continuing to provide quality services to our clients.

The new building is currently under construction and our goal is to take occupancy on October 1st with a full 60 days to transition over clients by our December 1st go live date.

Rest assured that our transition teams will be in contact with you to assist in managing this change, and we are open to making any special accommodations needed to ensure the move will not impact your business.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation, and for the trust that you have always placed in us. We know at the end of this transition we will be better equipped to serve all of your needs now and into the future.

 

Sincerely,

Eduardo “Lalo” Acosta
