Economic Boosts Possible for Terrebonne, Lafourche Ports

摘要

A fact-finding mission to Panama by representatives of the Terrebonne Parish Economic Development Authority (TEDA) and the Port of Terrebonne in Louisiana has resulted in potentially positive news for the region's economy. The goal of the trip, conducted in March, was to determine how the region might benefit from the increased shipping that will result from the widening of the Panama Canal. An opportunity was identified in the exportation of LNG. Potential investors need to be identified.
