1 MARITIME BULLETIN News and Information from the Port of Hampton Roads Volume 70, No 2, February, 2006 This months Maritime Bulletin is Sponsored by: Maritime Issues Council State of the Port Address Joseph A. Dorto, General Manager, VIT Joseph A. Dorto, General Manager of Virginia International Terminals (VIT), delivered his annual State of the Port address at the Hampton Roads Foreign Commerce Club luncheon on January 25, Dorto s address this year centered on how having a natural deep water harbor proves to be advantageous for a port, but it doesn t guarantee the success of a port. Port success derives from industry leaders working together to enhance port operations through innovation and creative problem solving skills. Prior to the Port s unification, competition among the three terminals (Norfolk International Terminals, Newport News Marine Terminal, and Portsmouth Marine Terminal) negatively impacted the Port. Forward thinking leaders saw how the competition was a problem for the Port, and in 1982 unified the Port, placing terminal operations under one umbrella, Virginia International Terminals. The Port is always preparing for the future. Our industry leaders have come together over the course of time to solve various Port problems. Recent programs generated through combined efforts of the port community were the Port Wide Chassis Pool and the Empty Container Depots. The Port Wide Chassis Pool improves efficiency for truck drivers as well as shippers. Drivers can now utilize any chassis that is available and they know all the safety requirements for that chassis are met. The Empty Container Depots are another example of improving port operations. The terminal now has more space to unload full containers, increasing the amount of containers the Port can handle. In 2005, the Port handled 1.9 million TEU s, a record high for the Port. Over the past few years, containers passing through the Port have increased approximately 10% each year. Our Port is poised to be the number one container port on the East Coast. The Port of Virginia has all the elements required to be number one, according to a presentation given by J.J. Keever, Deputy Executive Director for the Virginia Port Authority, at an HRMA Maritime Briefing. VIT signed ten-year contracts with large shipping companies. No other port has achieved that feat. These long term contracts indicate the world beyond our waters knows our Port is preparing for the future and they want to be a part of it. A harbor s natural deep water, the intermodal infrastructure, terminal expansion capabilities and a cargo base are the tangible elements for a port s success. Advancing port operations through leadership, innovation and teamwork will put the Port of Virginia above the rest. Deeper Water Intermodal Infrastructure Terminal Expansion Cargo Base New York N.

Recipient of Presidential E and E Star Awards for Excellence in Export Service Recipient of ASAE Communication Excellence & Honorable Mention Awards SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT Maritime Issues Council The Maritime Issues Council (MIC) is HRMA s Political Action Committee that was formed in the year 2000 to advance issues of concern for the growth and development of the maritime industry in Virginia. The MIC enables HRMA to work in Richmond with the Virginia General Assembly on behalf of the maritime industry to advance the interests of the Port of Hampton Roads. Every year the MIC hosts a dinner in Richmond for the General Assembly members from Hampton Roads. The dinner provides an opportunity for HRMA s leadership, joined by representatives from the Hampton Roads Shipping Association and MIC contributors, to meet and speak with our elected officials about the issues important to the Port. This year s dinner was attended by most of Hampton Roads legislators, as well as Lt. Governor Bill Bolling, Attorney General Bob McDonnell, Secretary of Transportation Pierce Homer, and Deputy Secretary of Transportation Scott Kasperowicz. Although unable to attend in person, Governor Tim Kaine had a letter delivered and read at the dinner which recognized the importance of the Port to Virginia, the role the HRMA plays to advance the Port, and expressed his support for development of Craney Island Marine Terminal, the Route 164 rail relocation, the Heartland Corridor project, and funding the transportation infrastructure needs. (Please find a copy of the Governor s letter contained in this issue of the Maritime Bulletin.) Every year the MIC addresses legislative issues that directly affect businesses tied to the Port. We have been successful when it comes to reducing the burden to the industry in regard to taxes and fees, obtaining funding for Port improvement projects, and monitoring state governance issues. The MIC is an advocate for the maritime industry s interests regarding transportation infrastructure, port security, and the competitive position of the Port. Doubtless, new issues will continue to present themselves and the MIC will play an increasingly important role in the future of the Port. The MIC relies on contributions from HRMA s member companies.

3 Maritime News 2006 Pinnacle of Engineering Excellence Awarded to Moffatt & Nichol The Virginia chapter of the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) has awarded Moffatt & Nichol (M&N) the 2006 Pinnacle of Engineering Excellence Award for the Norfolk International Terminals South Wharf Renovation. ACEC s Engineering Excellence Awards program recognizes engineering achievements which demonstrate the highest degree of merit and ingenuity. The award was presented February 2, 2006 and accepted by Mike Knott and Gary Smith of M&N. Also present were Mike Crist and Ira Brotman from M&N s Norfolk Office and Eric Vugteveen, David Wolfe, and Nick Smilek of M&N s Richmond office. Jeff Florin and Kevin Abt of the Virginia Port Authority were also in attendance. Norfolk International Terminals (NIT) is the largest of the Virginia Port Authority (VPA) facilities and accounts for nearly half of the Port s total container throughput. In 2002, the VPA undertook a large-scale renovation of the South Terminal at NIT. This renovation was required to upgrade infrastructure and replace container handling equipment at NIT which was both aged and becoming functionally obsolete. The first step in these renovations included the replacement of 4,230 linear feet of wharf with (l-r: Nick Smilek, Gary Smith, Mike Crist, Eric Vugteveen, Mike Knott, Kevin Abt, Ira Brotman, Jeff Florin and David Wolfe a new state-of-the-art wharf designed specifically to handle containerized cargo. Moffatt & Nichol provided civil, structural, hydraulic, electrical and mechanical engineering design services for this complex $84 million project. The following list includes the major highlights of the successful renovation of the NIT South Wharf: Demolition and reconstruction of 4,230 linear feet of wharf in 2-1/2 years, No impacts to ship operations during reconstruction, Implementation of an innovative under-wharf detention basin to treat stormwater, Ability to deepen the berths to 60 feet without additional wharf modification, and An innovative approach to environmental mitigation. This remarkable project was completed on time, within budget and met or exceeded all of the VPA s criteria for the project. The NIT South Wharf Renovation Project has transformed the aging South Wharf at NIT into an economically-viable, state-of-the-art containerized cargo handling wharf capable of accommodating growing container ships and increasing cargo volumes well into the future. Moffatt & Nichol (M&N) is a multi-discipline engineering and planning firm specializing in engineering and design for ports, marinas, shipyards, waterfront structures, coastal protection and water resources development. Operating out of 22 offices throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, M&N provides innovative solutions to the challenges found in today s waterfront and transportation arenas. M&N s Norfolk, Virginia office currently provides engineering program management and master planning services for the Virginia Port Authority. Norfolk International Terminals South Wharf 3

6 6 HRMA Highlights HRMA Committee Activity JANUARY Towing and Barge Operators Committee On January 11 th, the committee received updates on several on-going issues. Industry organizations are working with the Coast Guard to develop new inspection regulations and the Coast Guard is placing significant emphasis on increased life saving training and equipment requirements. The Personnel Recruitment Subcommittee is continuing down the path of gathering statistical data and will be conducting a survey of companies operating in the area. The subcommittee is also looking at tools to promote the towing industry and jobs.
