Panama Canal
• Approximately 50 miles long from Atlantic to Pacific Oceans.
• Average transit time is 8 to 10 hours.• Total cost of transit for 4,500 TEU vessel
including tolls, pilots, tugs, line handlers, etc… is $400,000 +.
• 3 sets of locks – Gatun, Pedro Miguel, & Miraflores.
• The Lock system to raise and lower vessels is gravity fed with fresh water, taking an average of 52 million gallons per transit.
• Vessels are raised 85 feet to Gatun Lake between each ocean.
• In FY ending September 30, 2014, almost 12,000 vessels transited the Canal, generating nearly $2Billion USD in toll revenue.

Suez Canal
• Connects Mediterranean and Red Seas.• Average transit is 12 to 16 hours.• 120 miles long, 66 feet deep.• Can handle vessels with capacity
approaching 20,000 TEUs.• In 2013, over 16,000 vessels transited the
Canal, generating in excess of $5 Billion USD in tolls.
• “New Suez” Canal began construction in August 2014 and projected to cost $8.4 Billion USD. It will increase draft to 90’ and allow for two-way vessel traffic. Estimated completion date is 1 to 3 years.

CSX
2015MPA Intermodal / Trade Development Presentation
Vessel productivity averaging almost 40 moves per hour/crane. Truck turn times averaging 27 minutes per move. Utilizes the latest versions of Navis SPARCS/Express vessel and yard planning programs
for increased efficiencies and seamless EDI information flow to the customer. Hand held computers used throughout the terminal for real time updates on every
yard and vessel container movement. OCR (optical character recognition) currently being used on inbound/outbound lanes
to enhance truck turn times as well as container cranes for improved accuracy. Damage inspection via OCR to store/record images of inbound/outbound lanes for
greater transparency. GPS (global positioning system) currently being utilized on RTG equipment to ensure
precise movement. Community website which allows carriers, truckers, brokers, etc. access to container
information and truck interchanges.

Sustainability
REI Case Study
REI is an environmental leader in the retail industry where environmental stewardship is a core principal the company was built upon.
As a result of the sustainability and environmental efforts the Port of Baltimore is committed to, REI selected Baltimore as its East Coast gateway for import cargo.
After a recent two day visit from REI to see first hand the type of sustainability efforts the Port of Baltimore is involved in REI, unsolicited by MPA, plans on evangelizing our efforts with external industry peers for future consideration showing strategic advantages in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
Dredge Placement Facilities
The MPA has been recognized for its beneficial use of dredge materials by the Federal Government and has been held up as a model for other ports to emulate.

Reasons To UseThe Port of Baltimore
BCOs can have confidence building supply chains through Baltimore
50 foot channel & 50 foot berth Time = $$$: Unmatched vessel and gate productivity vs. competing ports. Four (4) container berths, eleven (11) cranes including Super Post- Panamax Currently receiving vessels 2X size of Panama Canal – 2M Asian Service. Robust improvements underway to keep ahead of demand. Panama Canal expansion will offer even more ocean carrier options. Environmental leader in DMCF, air emissions, ballast water testing, education Port of Baltimore does not have any air draft limitations, water limitations, or
terminal congestion associated with other ports. Port of Baltimore is capable of handling ships as large as 14,000 TEUs today!
