The problemsthat can result from the mobility fo respondfo changeare well illustrated by the designof manyof the world's portsand harbors. Until recently thesefacilities could be designed by looking backward for examples from the past. But rapid communication and the economicpressures of world trade have so shortened the gap between scientific break- through and technological implementation that modelsfrom antiquity no longer suffice. Con- tainerization, supersized vessels, oceangoing barges and new cargo handling techniques are but few of the most recent developments to which ports must respond. Another, spawned by necessityand massivesocial pressure,is the need for preserving environmental balance. Clearly, ports and harbors of the future must be planned and designed to accommodate change. The purposeof this report is to aid those who are involved in and responsible for port and harbor planning and design. If is hoped that through the use of the guidelines presented herein, marine facilities may be de- veloped which are more rational, more flexible and thus more functional . Thenext section of the report, Part 3, pre- sents an analysis of present harbor design features. Part 4 describesstep by step re- quirements in port design and construction.

  • Modernising Trust Ports [Second Edition] I

    Modernising Trust Ports [Second Edition] I

    Modernising Trust Ports [second edition] i. Introduction This is the second edition of Modernising Trust Ports (MTP). The first was published in 2000 by the then Department for the Environment, Transport and the Regions, and followed a review of the trust ports sector that focused principally on corporate governance and accountability. That review highlighted a need for a general improvement in the openness and accountability with which trust ports conduct their business, and prompted the Department to stipulate governance guidelines which it expected all trust port boards to use as the benchmark of best practice — Modernising Trust Ports. A similar exercise was undertaken with respect to municipal ports. The general improvement sought by the Government has been widely in evidence in the years since then, and the sector should be congratulated for the considerable strides it has taken in this direction. In 2006 the successor Department for Transport embarked upon a thorough review of ports policy, in light of devolution in the UK planning and political systems, and the evolution of global trading patterns. The review looked among other things at the future of the mixed ports sector, including the outlook for trust ports in the coming decades. This was set against the backdrop of the decision by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) in 2001 to classify the largest trust ports as public corporations, which had the effect of placing those ports’ borrowing on the Department’s accounts, and the relevant ports' subsequent applications, now on hold, to remove themselves from perceived public sector controls through the pursuit of appropriate Harbour Revision Orders (HROs).

This task is controlled by the Working Group 3 of the WPCAP. • As a first step towards this objective, a state-of-the art analysis of P2S solutions currently in operation has been developed. This analysis is based on the answers to a questionnaire. 3 Questionnaire The ports that have been part of the survey are as follows: • Port of Rotterdam • HAROPA- Port of Le Havre • Port of Zeebrugge • Port of Kristiansand • Port of Ystad • Port of Hamburg • Port of Vancouver • Port of Halifax • Port of Seattle • Port of Gothenburg • Port of New York & New Jersey • Ports of Stockholm • Port of Long Beach • Port of Barcelona • Port of Los Angeles • Port of Kemi These ports have P2S solutions in place.

The records that were donated to USC were chiefly those that were generated in the 1940s and 50s as part of the Tidelands controversies, concerning the Los Angeles / Long Beach / Wilmington harbor areas, and documenting channels, wetlands, islands, elevations, and shoreline. In addition to many maps, drawings, and historical files, the records consist of many volumes of land surveys (done by civil engineer Francis Bates) which were done in the old tidelands area in the 1930s and 40s. Mr. Bates also obtained copies of many of the original rancho documents for this area (e.g. Rancho Los Cerritos) to provide a complete history of the harbor, onshore and offshore.

    Export/Import Profile Los Angeles, CA he Port of Los Angeles, located on the southern portion of the California coastline, is one of the busiest ports in the United States. The port is located on the San Pedro Bay about 20 miles from Tdowntown Los Angeles. It is the largest container port in the United States and most agricultural exports and imports that pass through the port are containerized. In 2015, the Port of Los Angeles moved nearly 8.2 million 20-ft equivalent units (TEU), of which more than 707,000 TEU were filled with agricultural cargo. The port of LA handles over 16 percent of U.S. animal feed exports, nearly 35 percent of U.S. cotton exports, and over 33 percent of U.S. orange exports. Exports The Port of Los Angeles moved almost 5.5 million metric tons of agricultural export cargo in 2015. Nearly all of these cargoes were moved in containers. The commodity with the largest volume was animal feed, representing approximately 42 percent of the port’s agricultural exports. In addition, 35 percent of U.S. cotton and 33 percent of orange exports were shipped through Los Angeles. The top shipping lines included Evergreen, Nippon Yusen Kaisha, and Hyundai Merchant Marine. The top destination markets were China, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea.
