  • December 2, 2016 the Honorable Anthony Foxx
    December 2, 2016 The Honorable Anthony Foxx Secretary of Transportation U.S. Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Ave, SE Washington, DC 20590 RE: Port of Anacortes FASTLANE Grant letter of support Dear Secretary Foxx, On behalf of the membership of the Pacific Northwest Waterways Association (PNWA), I am writing to express our support for the FASTLANE grant application submitted by the Port of Anacortes. PNWA is a regional trade association whose 135 members support projects such as this one, to enhance the Northwest’s economy and competitive position in world markets. Attached is a full list of our membership, which includes the Port of Anacortes. The Port of Anacortes is a deep-water port in Northwest Washington State, with 3 marine terminals, a marina and an airport. They are working to increase the functionality and efficiency of their facilities and are requesting grant funding to complete five upgrades at their Pier 2 terminal. This facility is a naturally deep-water terminal with access to two major highways, Interstate 5 and State Route 20. Annual exports at the terminal include 250,000 to 466,000 metric tons of petroleum coke and prilled sulfur. The pier serves ships from China, Japan, India, Brazil, and Mexico and the Port’s proximity to the major roadways allows for easy freight access with limited congestion. However, the terminal’s current infrastructure limits the size of ships which can call on the port. This FASTLANE grant would provide the opportunity for the Port to upgrade its facilities to accommodate larger vessels. This would allow the Port to retain and grow market share, and to continue to support local exports and the economic vitality of the Northwest.

  • April 20, 2015 the Honorable Anthony Foxx, Secretary
    April 20, 2015 The Honorable Anthony Foxx, Secretary U.S. Department of Transportation 1200 New Jersey Ave., SE Washington, DC 20590 Dear Secretary Foxx: I am writing to express the Pacific Northwest Waterways Association’s (PNWA) support for the Port of Tacoma’s application for a $15.8 million grant under the United States Department of Transportation’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) Discretionary Grants program (CFDA 20.933) for its Terminal 4 Pier Modernization project. PNWA is a regional trade association established in 1934 which addresses federal policies and projects related to navigation and other transportation, trade, energy and environmental issues. We encourage development of the region’s multi-modal transportation system to provide safe, secure, efficient, competitive links to domestic and world markets and our membership supports projects such as this one, to advance the region’s economic health and competitive position in world markets. Terminal 4, part of the Husky Container Terminal, has become outdated in the face of modern containerized ship building trends. With wharfs constructed at odd alignments and cranes unable to handle increasingly larger ships, Terminal 4 is in need of improvements. The Port is seeking federal funds to rebuild the Terminal 4 pier, aligning it with the neighboring Terminal 3 pier to create one contiguous 2,960 foot long pier structure capable of simultaneously berthing two ultra-large container ships. The new pier structure will also be designed to accommodate modern 24-container wide, 100- guage cranes needed to work larger vessels. The planned upgrades to the Terminal 4 pier will allow the Husky Container Terminal to increase the size of ships it can handle.

The Pacific Northwest Waterways Association (PNWA) is a non-profit 501(c)6 that advocates for federal policies and funding in support of regional economic development.

Several of our members will be providing comments that are specific to their organization or sector. We have appreciated the opportunity to meet with staff for the U.S. Entity since autumn 2012.
