Would private development on a working marine freight terminal compromise security?
The safety and security of marine terminals are a big concern for local, state and federal law enforcement, including Homeland Security. The Port of San Diego is designated a “strategic port” by the U.S. military- one of only 15 in the United States. The military uses the Port’s two marine terminals to transport classified cargo to support our military operations around the world. Because of security issues, private development cannot co-exist with a freight terminal.
