| 摘要： | Developers of a port under development in Cairo, Ill., signed a project labor agreement April 27 with the Illinois AFL-CIO guaranteeing at least 500 union jobs in building it. The Alexander-Cairo Port District represents one of the largest investments in southern Illinois in decades, Gov. J.B. Pritzker said in announcing the port last August. The state's Rebuild Illinois capital plan is providing $40 million in funding for construction of the port. The port district is securing additional private investment and structuring the port as a public-private partnership, according to a news release from the port's public relations firm announcing the labor agreement. "Major logistics and commodities businesses have already committed to using the new port to move crops, container shipments and bulk products once it is completed," the port said in the announcement. American Patriot Holdings announced in September that it is among those partners, with the port district signing a memorandum of understanding to provide in-termodal container-handling services for American Patriot Container Transport's next-generation container shipping vessels, which will run on liquefied natural gas. |
