Our Ports

California plans for our nation’s future. Through its integrated system of ports and harbors along California’s unmatched 3,400 miles of coast and transportation infrastructure, we are relied upon to transport goods to and from every state. California is committed to the prosperity of our nation.

California’s maritime system seeks the following key objectives to fulfill our role in the nation’s economy:
 
Full expenditure of Harbor Maintenance Tax receipts for their intended purpose which is critical for the maintenance of our shipping channels and waterways by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
 
Funding for goods movement infrastructure through federal transportation programs to ports and harbors.
 
Implementation of policies designed for flexible management of the nation’s coastal resources.
