Georgia and South Carolina's port authorities agreed to stop all Jasper Ocean Terminal joint-venture work indefinitely. The agreement halts federal environmental work, other studies and additional funding until both authorities revoke it in writing. The proposed 1,500-acre terminal had been planned for as much as seven million container units a year.
Why it matters
A long-planned regional port expansion has no active path forward unless both states restart it.
