Abstract:Pursuant to the requirements of Section 6018 of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act; P.L. 114-94; Dec. 4, 2015; 49 USC 6314), the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) has completed the 2023 annual report of the Port Performance Freight Statistics Program. The FAST Act requires BTS to report on the top 25 maritime ports as measured by 1) overall cargo tonnage, 2) dry bulk cargo tonnage, or 3) by twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) of containerized cargo. In 2016, the Working Group commissioned by BTS Director recommended that U.S. Corps of Engineers (USACE) Waterborne Commerce Statistics be used to generate top 25 ports.1 The program provides nationally consistent capacity and throughput performance measures for these ports.
