RECORDS SET IN 2013
T
he Port of Baltimore had another
record-setting year for key
targeted commodities at the
public marine terminals. “The Port of
Baltimore continues to prove that it is
one of the most productive seaports
in the U.S.,”
Governor Martin O’Malley
said. “The Port has successfully
withstood a challenging economy
and has outperformed many other
major U.S. ports, thanks to shrewd
infrastructure investments, unique job-
creating public-private partnerships
and long-term contracts with major
international shipping companies.”
In total, the amount of general cargo
at the Port’s public marine terminals
reached 9.6 million tons in 2013,
matching the record set a year earlier.
Here’s how other records shaped up:
