At the inaugural Navigational Summit in 2006, the maritime community agreed on the following as the priority projects for the Ports of Virginia: • Maintain the Norfolk Harbor Channel and Craney Island • Construct the Craney Island Eastern Expansion • Deepen the Southern Branch to the 45-foot and 40-foot authorized project level • Construct the 55-foot Norfolk Harbor Project These are the navigational needs that must be addressed and brought to reality for the Ports of Virginia to reach its fullest potential as a driver of regional and statewide economic activity.
