U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 88. Discharge of cargo of vessel in quarantine
Whenever, by the health laws of any State, or by the regulations
made pursuant thereto, any vessel arriving within a collection
district of such State is prohibited from coming to the port of
entry by law established for such district, and such health laws
require or permit the cargo of the vessel to be unladen at some
other place within or near to such district, the collector, after
due report to him of the whole of such cargo, may grant his warrant
or permit for the unlading and discharge thereof, under the care of
the surveyor, or of one or more inspectors, at some other place
where such health laws permit, and upon the conditions and
restrictions which shall be directed by the Secretary of Health and
Human Services, or which such collector may, for the time, deem
expedient for the security of the public revenue.
