Big day in Baltimore!
The Saimaagracht was the first vessel to successfully move through the temporary 35-foot deep channel from the Port of Baltimore’s public terminals. Great work @USCG sector Baltimore and @USACEBaltimore.

@portofbalt
Autos, containers, farm/construction machinery, paper, sugar, and salt. 50-foot-deep channel and berths. Closest East Coast port to Midwest. We do it all!
- Another milestone today! First container ship to arrive at Seagirt Terminal since the crisis began. @MSCCargo Passion III came through 35-foot-deep temporary channel. Nearly 1,000 containers handled by about 80 @ILALocal333 workers. We're getting there... @portsamericahq
- What a week! Our 700ft wide, 50ft deep channel was opened & we welcomed our largest container ship to Seagirt Terminal since the bridge collapse! Ever Forever has a capacity of nearly 13K 20ft long containers. Big ships are back in Baltimore. #BaltimoreIsBack #ThePortForOurNation
- “I’ve been waiting a long time to say this…Maryland, the Fort McHenry Channel is cleared and the Port of Baltimore is open for business!” -@GovWesMoore
- Significant milestone achieved tonight with controlled explosives successfully detonated helping to break apart the bridge and start to free the Dali vessel. Incredible work by the entire Unified Command. @USACEBaltimore @USCG

- Great to welcome @WalWil_ASA to Dundalk Terminal today, the first Wallenius Wilhelmsen ship to arrive back at the POB since the bridge incident. Thanks to the men and women of our @ILALocal333 workforce for a great job on loading and unloading. Baltimore is back!

- It is taking a team effort from federal, state, and local partners working together to reopen the main channel of the Port of Baltimore. Our nation’s economy depends on it.
- Our vessel schedule is filling up! More than 30 vessels and barges are due into our public terminals over the next week. Baltimore is back! @ILAUnion
- Another first! The first RoRo cargo ship has arrived at Dundalk Terminal since the Francis Scott Key Bridge incident & for good measure we also had a container ship today at Seagirt. Huge welcome to ACL's Atlantic Sun & @MSCCargo's Shanghai V! Baltimore is back! @portsamericahq
- Introducing "The Gus" - a powerhouse crane tackling the task of pulling out Key Bridge wreckage from the Patapsco River. With the ability to pull 1000 tons in a single go, this monster is unstoppable. Our salvage mission is full steam ahead until we get the job done!
