The Operations division of the Port is comprised of the Engineering, Security, and Police departments.
Operations
The VPA Engineering department is responsible for the implementation of plans and specifications for the long-term growth of the Port which includes the renovation of existing facilities as well as the development of new facilities. The complete renewal of NIT to a state of the art container terminal in the past several years is a paradigm of facility renovation, and the development proposed fourth marine terminal at Craney Island will add tremendous growth potential.
