Maryland Port Administration in 1970 (Chapter
526, Acts of 1970). The Administration was made
part of the Department of Transportation in 1971.

The Administration endeavors to promote and
increase waterborne commerce in Maryland. It

inadequate, the Authority is empowered to con-
struct and, if necessary, operate supplementary pub-
lic facilities (Code Transportation Article, secs.

the port of Cambridge came under the control of
