The traditional federal port policy in the United States has been one in which programs of federal agencies did not disturb the competitive relationship among ports. Modern technology combined with other factors such as environmental regulations has disrupted this policy approach. Federal agencies may affect port competition in three ways: allocation of funds for dredging or for port facilities; implementation of existing regulations as they pertain to the siting and operation of terminal facilities and their vessel movements; or formulation of new policies or programs which directly or indirectly affect ports. The federal government must acknowledge the administrative dilemma confronting the traditional approach to federal port policy, establish a unified governmental approach to port planning and development, and take the necessary steps to evaluate the future competitive impacts on ports of its actions.
