Port District Act
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Port District Act is a law enacted by the Legislature of the U.S. state of Washington in 1911, that enabled citizens to establish public port districts to develop and operate harbors and related transportation facilities.[1]
The first port district established under the new law was the Port of Seattle, with Hiram M. Chittenden, Robert Bridges, and Charles Remsberg as the first Port Commissioners. Also in 1911, the Port of Grays Harbor was established.[1]
