IN BRIEF NEW SERVICES & SOLUTIONS

The Paulsboro Marine Terminal in Paulsboro, N.J., welcomed its
first vessel, the Doric Warrior, carrying steel slabs to processing

to be constructed along the Delaware River in more than 50 years.
The project is a public-private partnership between South Jersey
Port Corporation, Gloucester County, the Borough of Paulsboro,
and Holt Logistics.
