CTSA maintains 7% currency surcharge    Member lines of the Canada Transpacific Stabilization Agreement said last week they will keep their currency adjustment surcharge at 7 percent through February.
   The surcharge was raised to 7 percent Dec. 1. CTSA, whose lines provide service between Asia and Canada, reviews its currency surcharge monthly, typically one month ahead of when the rate will go into effect.
