Big day in Baltimore!
The Saimaagracht was the first vessel to successfully move through the temporary 35-foot deep channel from the Port of Baltimore’s public terminals. Great work U.S. Coast Guard sector Baltimore and USACE Baltimore.
Another ship heads out today! Wallenius Wilhelmsen's Carmen successfully moved through the temporary 35-foot deep channel from our Dundalk Marine Terminal this afternoon.
Awesome job U.S. Coast Guard sector Baltimore and USACE Baltimore.
The first commercial vessel transited through the Limited Access Channel at the #FSKBridge site Thursday, part of scheduled passages for a limited number of commercial vessels into the Port of Baltimore and a departure opportunity for deep draft vessels unable to leave the harbor.
Being prepared for emergencies starts with maintaining the things we rely on everyday. Another good item for your #NationalCarCareMonth checklist is to make sure your vehicle's emergency kit is fully stocked and ready.
