Timeliness of Documentation. As has been stated throughout these instructions, the MOST IMPORTANT element of a successful claims pursuit and recovery program is the surveyor’s documentation, which is based upon the analyses of cargo at the time the ocean carrier’s liability ends (e.g., ex-ship’s tackle or upon delivery at inland destination. This is especially true in documenting a claim for unfitness. Survey reports should state that a certain quantity of cargo is suspected as being unfit for human consumption. If possible, cargo should be viewed and analyzed by proper authorities while in vessel holds, and then again immediately upon discharge. If port conditions or customs do not allow for such prompt viewing, analyses should be made as soon as possible after discharge. In cases where the surveyor notes that cargoes are damaged on board the vessel, and where such cargoes are later declared unfit for human consumption, a cause-effect relationship exists between carrier damage and declaration of unfitness. The key to this cause-effect relationship is the time involved between discharge and the declaration of unfitness.
