About: Port of Anchorage

An Entity of Type: settlement, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Port of Alaska (POA) is a deep-water port located in Anchorage, Alaska with 3 bulk carrier berths, two petroleum berths, and one barge berth. It is an enterprise department of the Municipality of Anchorage. The name was changed from "Port of Anchorage" to the "Port of Alaska" in 2017. As such, the Port is distinguished from other types of municipal departments largely because it generates enough revenue to support its operations without being a burden to Anchorage property tax payers, and it also pays a fee-in-lieu of taxes to help run city government.

  • Der Hafen Anchorage (engl. Port of Anchorage) ist ein Seehafen in Anchorage, Alaska, Vereinigte Staaten. Er wird als Güter- und Personenhafen genutzt. Der eisfreie Tiefwasserhafen wurde 1915 eröffnet. Es ist der Nachfolgehafen für Port of Seward, der bei einem Erdbeben zerstört wurde. (de)
  • Le port d'Anchorage est le port le plus actif dans l'État américain de l'Alaska, puisque 95 % de toute marchandise (hors pétrole) transitant en provenance ou à destination de l'Alaska passe par celui-ci. Il est situé au nord de Ship Creek, près du centre d'Anchorage, dans le golfe de Cook, dans l'océan Pacifique. Le nom complet d'origine est Knik Anchorage qui signifie en anglais : « mouillage de Knik » (Knik était l'ancien village inuit qui se trouvait là et dont le nom signifie « feu ») est donc à l'origine de la ville d'Anchorage elle-même.

  • The Port of Alaska (POA) is a deep-water port located in Anchorage, Alaska with 3 bulk carrier berths, two petroleum berths, and one barge berth. It is an enterprise department of the Municipality of Anchorage. The name was changed from "Port of Anchorage" to the "Port of Alaska" in 2017. As such, the Port is distinguished from other types of municipal departments largely because it generates enough revenue to support its operations without being a burden to Anchorage property tax payers, and it also pays a fee-in-lieu of taxes to help run city government. The POA provides critical transportation infrastructure to the citizens of Anchorage and to a majority of the citizens of the State of Alaska both within and beyond the Railbelt. Seventy-four percent of all the waterborne freight and ninety-five percent of the refined petroleum products entering the state through Southcentral Alaska ports is shipped through the Port of Alaska. This includes 100 percent of the jet fuel supplied to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson and approximately 66 percent of the jet fuel for Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport. The Port Director is appointed by the Mayor and reports to the Municipal Manager. There is a nine-person Commission, also appointed by the Mayor, responsible for promulgating the Port's terminal tariff. Despite its enterprise distinction, the Port acts as a standard municipal department with the Anchorage Assembly approving its annual budget, contracts, tariffs, and leases. Additionally, needed legal, financial and other day-to-day support are provided, for a fee, by the appropriate general government departments acting as an extension of the Port's staff. All Port operating activities are subject to municipal code. (en)
