Baltimore considering 50-foot berth
Port of Baltimore officials are speaking with private companies to gauge interest in helping fund a new 50-foot-deep berth at the Seagirt Marine Terminal, reports the Baltimore Sun.
The report said the state of Maryland is expected to decide sometime in the spring whether to involve private investors in a deeper berth, to finance the work, which would require approval from the state’s Board of Public Works.
Interest in the deeper berth has grown because of the project to add a new set of locks to the Panama Canal that will accommodate larger ships.
