The Port of Tacoma and the Evergreen Group opened the Pierce County Terminal, a 171-acre container terminal located on the 51-foot-deep Blair Waterway. The terminal boasts a 12-track intermodal yard capable of accommodating up to 72 double-stack rail cars. The $210 million facility, which will serve Evergreen, Lloyd Triestino, and Hatsu Marine, has an estimated annual throughput capacity of 840,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent container units).
