18 Pelican Island Bridge Future Economic Development Port of Galveston and the PANAMA CANAL Current Impact Port of Galveston currently handles 3 5 Ro-Ro calls per month inbound from the Far East via the Panama Canal where the Port of Galveston is first Port of Discharge. Cargo is primarily construction and agricultural equipment. Monthly Ro-Ro service from Galveston to Oceania, Australia and New Zealand via the Panama Canal. Cargo is mostly mining and agricultural equipment. Some export grain cargoes westbound via Panama Canal. 18

19 Port of Galveston and the PANAMA CANAL Possible Impact from Expansion Port of Galveston currently has authorized depth of 45 feet Deeper draft in the Panama Canal should provide opportunities for more export grain cargoes westbound via Panama Canal due to ability to load to 44 feet, deeper than current Panama Canal draft of 39 feet 06 inches. Should provide for more competitive freight rates to some markets in Asia. Deeper draft in the Panama Canal should provide opportunities for direct export of liquid bulk products from Pelican Island Storage Terminals, Inc. in larger vessels. That cargo now transships around Cape of Good Hope via Caribbean terminals after loading to smaller ships in Galveston. 123 Rosenberg Avenue, 8 th Floor Galveston TX INFORMATION Mailing Address: P.O.
