• Description:
  The legal questions and conflicts associated with superparts have been extensively examined by the Federal Government, by the governments of the coastal states, by deepwater pox't commissions and authorities created pursuant to state laws, by private corporations interested in owning and operating superports, and by a number of legal scholars. With the Deepwater Port Act now before us in its final form, it is at last passible to discuss the Legal aspects of deepwater port development in the context of an existing federal regulatory scheme. This paper will attempt to provide a comprehensive and critical examination of the background of the Deepwater Port Act and of the legal framework within which deepwater port development may naw proceed, with emphasis upon pertinent North Carolina law.
