OPERATING STATUS OF VARIOUS PORTS
Ports can be categorized by their type of operation: non-operating, operating, and limited-operating ports.
Non-Operating Ports = NONOP
Basically landlord ports with all port facilities generally leased or preferentially assigned with the lessee or assignee responsible for operating the facilities.
Operating Ports = OP
Generally provide all port services except stevedoring with their own employees including, but not limited to, loading and unloading of rail cars and trucks and the operation of container terminals, grain elevators, and other bulk terminal operations.
Limited-Operating Ports = LTDOP
Lease facilities to others, but continue to operate one or more facilities with port employees. These operated facilities may be specialized terminals, such as grain elevators, bulk terminals, container terminals, etc.
