This year, the port’s container volume – the bulk of the organization’s business – is down 16 percent to 1.2 million TEUs or twenty-foot-equivalent units, the standard measure of a container. The number of imported cars and cargo that doesn’t fit into a container is also significantly down. … Total operating revenue slipped this year to $92.9 million from $98.2 million last year. “I think we’ve seen the worst,” Port Commissioner Dick Marzano said. “The staff gave us an ultra-conservative report and that gives me optimism in the sense that I don’t foresee it being as bad.”
