Terminal 4 Expansion & Redevelopment Project

The Port of Grays Harbor’s largest marine terminal customer, AGP, has invested more than $100 million at its Terminal 2 Storage & Export Facility since 2001. Their existing facility is the largest soymeal exporter on the West Coast. AGP will be investing over $123 million at the Port by constructing an additional export ship loading facility at Terminal 4. To accommodate this expansion, the Port of Grays Harbor will need to make significant infrastructure improvements.

 

Terminal 4 Expansion & Redevelopment Project

The Terminal 4 Expansion & Redevelopment Project will combine private and public investment:

  • AGP Investment (private)

    • Build a new bulk agricultural commodity transload facility on land leased at the Port of Grays Harbor’s Terminal 4B, which will transfer soymeal and other agricultural products from railcars to ships at berth

  • Port Investment (public)

    • Construct new rail within the Port’s marine terminal complex to support offloading, storage and assembly of unit trains to accommodate rail traffic to the new Terminal 4B facility

    • Redevelop the 50-acre former WSDOT pontoon casting basin site into marine terminal cargo laydown area to support the continued operation of Terminal 4A

    • Construct secured site access and roadway improvements

    • Upgrade the Terminal 4 marine fendering and stormwater systems

Design and permitting for this project are funded and underway. Construction funding for the Port’s investments will include $25.5 million from a USDOT MARAD Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) grant awarded in October 2022. The Port is finalizing the construction funding package with a mix of local, state, and federal sources. Construction is targeted to begin in 2024, with AGP targeting operations in 2025.
