   so to do, storage for such goods as hereinafter mentioned, that
   is to say,—
   For the first twelve hours, free.
   After the first twelve hours the rates as set out in the fore-
   going schedule of wharfage charges shall be payable to
   the Council for every week or part of a week that goods
   remain in the sheds.

3. No person shall remove goods from any wharf without
   having previously paid the dues payable thereon.

   delivery of all goods landed on the wharf, and place such goods
   in the wharf-shed, and keep same until payment to the Council
   of the expenses of such removal, wharfage, and storage dues herein
   provided for, together with any other charges due to the Council
   thereupon, and in default of payment may, in the manner and
   in the time provided in section 195 of the Harbours Act, 1923,
   sell the same, and may exercise on behalf of the Council all the
   powers contained in the said section 195: Provided, however,
   that goods as mentioned in clauses 9 and 11 hereafter shall not
   be stored in any wharf-shed.

   not expedient to put in the wharf-shed, are stored on the wharf,
   then the owner of such goods shall pay storage to the Council for
   same at the same rate as mentioned in clause No. 2.

6. If any cargo remains on any wharf for a longer period than
   forty-eight hours, or where such cargo in any way hinders the
   loading or unloading of any vessel, or is an impediment to the
   approaches, the wharfinger may have such cargo removed at the
   expense of the shipper, and in the case of inward cargo at the expense
   of the consignee or owner: Provided that if any timber remains on
   any wharf for a longer period than twelve hours the wharfinger or
   other person in charge may have such timber removed at the expense
   of the shipper, consignee, or owner, as the case may be.

7. No person shall ship or unship any timber, coal, produce, or
   cargo of any description except at such time and places, and in such
   order or mode as may be directed and deemed expedient by the
   wharfinger for the proper working of any boat.

8. No person shall deposit any ballast, coal, coke, patent or
   other fuel on any wharf or in any shed without special permission
   of the wharfinger.

9. No owner of any goods or articles of any description which,
   in the opinion of the wharfinger, are likely to occasion damage to
   any wharf or shed, or anything for the time being on such wharf or
   in any such shed, shall discharge or land such goods on any such
   wharf or place same in any such shed.

10. No person shall place or leave upon any wharf or in any shed
    any vegetable or animal matter or goods which are in a state of decay
    or putrefaction. Any goods which are, in the opinion of the
    wharfinger, unfit to remain on wharf, or harmful to other goods
    stored on the wharf, or in any shed, may be removed from the
    wharf or any shed by the wharfinger, and the consignee or owner
    shall, upon demand, repay to the Council the cost of such removal,
    and also in addition the amount of any damage done by such goods
    to any other goods on such wharf or in such shed.

11. All explosives, kerosene, and all goods of a dangerous or
    inflammable character shall be removed by the owner, agent, or
    consignee immediately on being landed, and such owner, agent, or
    consignee failing so to do will be held responsible for any damage or
    loss that may accrue from any accident arising therefrom, in
    addition to the penalty provided for breach of these regulations,
    and the Council shall not be responsible for any damage or loss
    which may accrue to such goods.
