I raise this question because I honestly do not know the answer to it.
While the land surrounding the port may be owned/controlled by public and private entities, the port itself is a NAVIGABLE WATERWAY and falls under the jurisdiction of the US Coast Guard.
QUESTION: Should unknowable events arise and operations or deployment of military assets at Joint Base Lewis-McChord become necessary . . . . . in The Port's role as an ancillary shipping facility, what might be the Federal government's views on the downgrading, decommissioning, or disposal of The Port of Olympia? Has this been considered, or is this a moot point?
