Background The U.S. marine transportation system is an essential driver of the U.S. economy. Every day, U.S. ports and waterways handle millions of tons of domestic and international cargo, ranging from retail and agricultural products to finished goods and components, coal, petrochemicals, heating oil and automobiles. Those ports support more than 23 million American jobs throughout the supply chain, including the local economy in and around port communities. America’s seaports are crucial generators of economic development and well-paying jobs, both regionally and nationally, and throughout the supply chains that use the ports. They are also crucial to our nation’s ability to take advantage of the leveled playing field and increased market access being enabled by Administration trade initiatives, including the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). Approximately 75 percent of U.S. international merchandise exports and imports flow through our seaports including Made in America exports and the intermediate goods and components used in them. Long-term port congestion and efficiency problems remain a major systemic threat that creates a drag on local, regional, and national economic growth and employment.1 According to a recent Journal of Commerce seaport berth productivity report, U.S. West Coast container ports may be as much 1 Please see Federal Maritime Commission, ‘‘U.S. Container Port Congestion & Related International Supply Chain Issues: Causes, Consequences & Challenges,’’ June 2015 https://www.fmc.gov/NR1511/.
