| 摘要： | Local, state and federal stakeholders gathered in Savannah, Ga., March 25 to celebrate completion of dredging for the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project, which increased the available draft of the river and harbor from 42 feet to 47 feet. That available draft swells to 54 feet during high tide. Speaking to the crowd gathered on the shore of the Savannah River, Joel Wooten, chairman of the Georgia Ports Authority's executive board, said the completed deepening project means significant growth for a port that's already on a tear. "The largest vessels can now transit the river with heavier loads and with fewer tidal restrictions, and that is incredibly important to the port, to our capacity and to our efficiency," Wooten said. "The deeper water means that ships can carry up to an additional 1,000 containers, and that's important. That's important to the importers, and it's important to Georgia exporters." |
