Port applies for PIDP grant for East Terminal 4 Redevelopment & Expansion

September 2021

With future development in mind, the Port of Grays Harbor submitted a Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) grant to the US Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration (MARAD) for the East Terminal 4 Redevelopment & Expansion project.  The project qualifies as a “small project at a small port”, seeking $4.1 million in PIDP grant funds to be matched by $1.1 million in Port funds.    

The Port purchased WSDOT’s former 520 casting basin site, adjacent to Terminal 4, at the end of 2018.  The East Terminal 4 Redevelopment & Expansion project will repurpose the site by securing the flood gate, removing associated infrastructure and filling the basin.

Once completed, the project will increase the Port’s terminal cargo space by 50% and put the idle industrial site back into productive use for the Grays Harbor community.  Grant announcements are expected late this year.
