The devastating impacts of Hurricane Ida are widespread throughout southern Louisiana. Over 1 million are left without power as the city of New Orleans and many of the surrounding cities are still dealing with a massive power outage due to catastrophic damage to the power transmission grid. 

The New Orleans Terminal and Ports America will be CLOSED for containerized operations until more information is known and is dependent upon power restoration.

The Empire, Coastal Cargo, Gulf Stream Marine and Ports America for breakbulk operations will be CLOSED until more information is known and is dependent upon power restoration.
