St. Bernard Port
Just 9 miles downriver from Port NOLA’s Napoleon Avenue Container Terminal, the Chalmette Slip of the St. Bernard Port, Harbor & Terminal District is getting a much-needed rehabilitation. A summer reconstruction start is scheduled at the slip, which dates back more than a century. The $33 million project is getting a jumpstart from a $13 million federal Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery grant awarded in 2018, with state and port district coffers and terminal operator Associated Terminals combining to cover the rest of the cost.
St. Bernard Port officials also are looking to grow the 216-acre Chalmette footprint, with 12 adjacent acres having been acquired and additional land being eyed for future expansion, including for logistics for sugar refinery operations and other warehousing. In addition, port leadership is negotiating with ASR Group, formerly known as American Sugar Refining Co., related to building of new warehouse space at Chalmette for storage of refined sugar products.
Meanwhile, St. Bernard Port’s four berths and four midstream mooring buoys are remaining busy with handling a broad spectrum of bulk materials, from fertilizers to metals.
