Charged with facilitating the implementation of seaport capital improvement projects, the Florida Seaport Transportation and Economic Development Council (FSTED) consists of the port directors of the 15 publicly owned seaports and a representative from both the Department of Transportation and the Department of Economic Opportunity. The Florida Ports Council administers the FSTED program and staffs the Council. OUR MANDATE Florida’s deepwater seaports, as mandated by Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, prepare master plans to guide their development and expansion. Regularly updated plans, consistent with the comprehensive plans of the seaports’ respective local governments, establish goals and objectives, address forecasted needs, and identify five-year capital seaport improvement programs to implement. OUR GOALS • Develop world-class cargo and cruise facilities to enhance Florida’s global competitiveness. • Build system-wide, seamless intermodal facilities to move port goods and passengers efficiently and cost-effectively. • Capitalize on increased north-south trade and the Panama Canal expansion to capture more direct all-water service and feeder calls. • Strengthen and diversify strategic seaport funding to ensure vital and timely improvements. • Advocate continued statewide economic development that includes investment in major economic engines – Florida seaports. • Support security measures that balance compliance with an efficient flow of seaport commerce. 3 FLORIDA SEAPORTS: AT A GLANCE CARGO AND PASSENGER COUNTS 2018 TOP STATISTICS (Fiscal Year 2017/2018) • Florida’s waterborne • The long-term trend shows $57.4 Billion tonnage remained steady, rising waterborne imports Container cargo topping 110 million tons and falling exports values (5% increase) • International cargo • The number of TEUs increased 6.7%, to 56.6 handled increased 10.3% million tons • By handling type: • Import tonnage led the 110 Million - Container tonnage grew Tons of cargo growth by 4.3% • Import tonnage is twice that - Liquid bulk grew by 1.2% of export tonnage, with a 62:38 split - Break-bulk grew by 0.5% 38.7 Million • The state of Florida • A record-setting 16.8 Import tonnage maintains a container million passengers cruised (9.4% increase) tonnage surplus; the import from Florida’s ports share of tonnage is lower for containerized tonnage than export, at 46:54 4.1 Million TEUs handled (10.3% increase) “Governor DeSantis’ bold vision for Florida’s 16.8 Million economy relies on the strength of our partnerships Cruise passengers with agencies and organizations.

    Investment Element of the 2010 Florida Rail System Plan 2.0 Current Freight Rail System and Services in Florida 2.1 Overview The Florida rail system is comprised of 2,786 miles of mainline track, which are owned by 15 operating line-haul railroads and terminal or switching companies, as well as 81 miles owned by the State of Florida. Florida’s rail system includes 2 Class I Railroads (CSX Transportation and Norfolk Southern Corporation), 1 Class II (Florida East Coast Railway), 11 Class III (Alabama and Gulf Coast Railway AN Railway, Bay Line Railroad, First Coast Railroad, Florida West Coast Railroad, Florida Central Railroad, Florida Midland Railroad, Florida Northern Railroad, Georgia and Florida Railway, Seminole Gulf Railway, and South Central Florida Express) and 1 railroad specializing in switching and terminals (Talleyrand Terminal).9 The largest operator in the State is CSX Transportation, which owns more than 53 percent of the statewide track mileage. In 2008, Florida’s railroads carried nearly 1.6 million carloads – 19 percent less than in 2006 – and approximately 83 million tons of freight, representing a 25 million ton (23 percent) decrease from 2006.10 During that year, railroads handled freight equivalent to roughly 5.0 million heavy trucks.11 Nonetheless, railroads continue to support thousands of jobs throughout the State and assist Florida’s industries to remain competitive with international and domestic markets for fertilizer, construction rock, consumer goods, paper products, processed 9 U.S. Class I Railroads are line-haul freight railroads with 2007 operating revenue in excess of $359.6 million (2006 operating revenues exceeding $346.7 million).

  • Oil and Gas News Briefs, December 28, 2020
    Oil and Gas News Briefs Compiled by Larry Persily December 28, 2020 LNG producers risk overinvesting in too much new supply (The Wall Street Journal; Dec. 24) - As a cleaner fossil fuel, natural gas will play a role for years to come. It is less certain, however, that it will be a profitable one. Exuberant investment in new reserves and liquefaction facilities in recent years helped globalize the LNG market but also created a supply glut. Any sustained recovery in prices and profits will require producers to resist the temptation to overinvest once again. Future profitability will depend on how well supply and demand match up. Natural gas will likely play two key roles in the upcoming green transition: replacing coal-fired power plants until sufficient renewables production can be built; and fueling backup peak plants to bridge the gaps in intermittent wind and solar generation. Gas demand is expected to peak sometime in the next decade or two and then taper off slowly, though advances in carbon capture and storage could extend its role. On the other hand, gas demand could be reduced by a faster-than-expected fall in costs for renewable energy and storage, or an accelerated development of green hydrogen. The uncertainty makes it tricky to estimate what supply will be needed in the future, particularly as projects can take years to come online. This raises the risk of overproduction, which can cause prices to languish. Decisions to invest during the next two years could lead to another “wave of supplies” coming online in 2027, prompting another downward price cycle, said Carlos Torres Diaz, gas and power analyst at energy consultancy Rystad Energy.

  • Glossary of Port Industry Terminology
    Glossary of Port Industry Terminology Berth: 1) The area allotted to accommodate a vessel alongside a wharf, or the area in which a vessel swings when at anchor. 2) Or in “cruise terminology ” a bed. Berthage: A tariff charged to a vessel occupying a berth. It is calculated by applying the current tariff rate per GT for each of the first 2 twelve-hour periods. Each additional hour is charged at a lower published rate per GT. Bollard: Is a short vertical post used on a ship or a quay, principally for mooring. Breakbulk: Non-containerized general cargo. Examples include iron, steel, machinery, linerboard, woodpulp and yachts. Cabin: A passenger room onboard the cruise ship – sometimes called a stateroom or a berth. CBSA: Canada Border Services Agency (occasionally referred to as Canada Customs). Coastal Trading Act: An Act respecting the use of foreign ships and non-duty paid ships in the coasting trade. (Canadian version of American “Jones Act” see cabotage below). Cabotage Water transportation term applicable to shipments between ports of a nation; commonly refers to coastwise or intercoastal navigation or trade. Many nations, including the United States, have cabotage laws which require national flag vessels to provide domestic interport service. (In US this is referred to as the “Jones Act”). Chart Datum: A plan below which the tide will seldom fall. The Canadian Hydrographic Service has adopted the plane of Lowest Normal Tides (LNT) as chart datum. To find the depth of water, the height of tide must be added to the depth shown on the chart. Tidal heights preceded by a (-) must be subtracted from the charted depth.

BILLS: REFERENCE ACTION ANALYST STAFF DIRECTOR or BUDGET/POLICY CHIEF 1) Local Administration & Veterans Affairs 15 Y, 1 N, As Darden Miller Subcommittee CS 2) State Affairs Committee 20 Y, 0 N Darden Williamson SUMMARY ANALYSIS The Port of Palm Beach District (Port) is an independent special district located in Palm Beach County. The Port was created by special act in 1915 and its charter was re-codified in 1974 and 2017. The Port is the fourth busiest container port in Florida, the 18th busiest in the continental U.S., and is a major shipper of Florida goods such as bulk sugar and produce. The Port is governed by a Board of Commissioners (Board), comprised of five members elected at-large to serve four-year terms. Commissioners receive $9,500 per year as compensation, with no provision for increases or cost of living adjustments, and must post a surety bond of $25,000 upon taking office. The Board may hire a port manager to direct the day-to-day operations of the Port. The bill: Provides that newly elected commissioners take office in the January following the general election at which they are elected. Repeals the requirement that each commissioner must execute a $25,000 surety bond upon taking office and the additional $25,000 surety bond required of the commissioner selected as secretary- treasurer of the Board. Increases the compensation of commissioners from $9,500 to $12,500 annually.
