The Hancock County Port & Harbor Commission along the Mississippi Gulf Coast is continuing work on a new maritime dock and railroad facility at Port Bienville Industrial Park. The industrial park is located on a canal near where Mulatto Bayou connects with the Pearl River. The Pearl River, which forms the boundary between Louisiana and Mississippi in that part of the state, then runs into the Gulf of Mexico, connecting with the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The $8.8 million project includes a 600-foot bulkhead with a 40-foot apron that can accommodate three barges. The facility will also feature a 250-foot crushed stone lay down yard extending from the apron for operations and storage. |
