Description:For West Coast ports, where the potential for future cargo growth is greatest, the combination of expanded trade with Asia and a change in shipping routes from the Panama Canal to overland continental rail has invigorated Pacific Rim Trade and is transforming these ports into "intermodal transport gateways" for the nation (Marcus, et al., 1976, p. 1). Until the early 1970s, most large West Coast ports were able to accommodate these emerging demands with few conflicts in public purpose. Over the last decade, however, equally important demands for environmental quality and more diverse social planning have been imposed.
