The Georgia Ports Authority has its federal permit to build a third container terminal at the Port of Savannah. The authority said on Oct. 14 that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers approved the permit for the planned Savannah Container Terminal after a three-year review.
The Georgia Ports Authority says port activity supports nearly 278,000 full- and part-time jobs in an 11-county Atlanta region, including more than 100,000 in Fulton County, the largest of its 12 regional figures.
