Source: Tulsa World, Okla.自存倉Oct. 18--CATOOSA -- The Tulsa Port of Catoosa's board of directors approved a $333,149 bid to construct 19,000 feet of fencing around the facility Thursday during its monthly meeting.The project will fill in the currently unfenced portions, mostly near Oklahoma 167.The winning bid by Cherokee Pride Construction Inc. came in well under the estimated cost of $760,000, board officials noted.They said that though a planned federal grant could have paid up to $380,000 of the project cost, the expectation is that the grant will now pay for half of the $333,149 actual cost.The fence will be 7 feet high and have three-strand barbed wire.Port officials also announced that shipping for the year through September reached 2.02 million tons, which is slightly lower than the same period of 2012. Last year was a record for shipping at the port.September shipments tota迷你倉ed 145,900 tons. Inbound shipments topped outbound shipments, with steel contributing to the port's best inbound total since April.A reduction in some types of cargo, such as remaining stockpiles of this summer's wheat harvest and bulk liquids such as crude oil, contributed to lower outbound shipping totals.David Page, chairman of the City of Tulsa-Rogers County Port Authority, said even though it is too early to tell whether the port will set another yearly record, shipping totals will likely be excellent through the end of 2013.Also during the October meeting, John E. "Ed" Fariss was reappointed to the Tulsa Port of Catoosa Facilities Authority for an additional five-year term.Robert Evatt 918-581-8447robert.evatt@tulsaworld.comCopyright: ___ (c)2013 Tulsa World (Tulsa, Okla.)
