The port is seeing cargo volumes that were last achieved about 40 years ago
THUNDER BAY — With about one month still left in the shipping season, the Port of Thunder Bay is enjoying what port officials are describing as "generational" cargo volumes this year.
Fertilizer shipments, which are handled inbound at Keefer Terminal, have also contributed to the terminal seeing its highest annual cargo volume in decades. The Thunder Bay Port Authority also reported Monday that grain volumes in November held strong in the wake of significant gains experienced over the previous two months, leaving the year-to-date volume more than 500,000 metric tons higher than the five-year average.
