Assumptions on the draft of vessels, handling of fraight, electricity, water services and completion date projects are detailed. Project benefits (direct and indirect) are outlined together with the assumptions underlying this project. In the economic evaluation estimated upper and lower growth paths for imports and exports are given with the results showing a discounted rate of return ranging from 3.5 - 6.1 percent for a low growth path and 4.6 - 7.9 percent for a high growth path when cost for four dummy projects (range $4 million to $7 million) are used. The short term and long term impact on the economy are discussed, while the possible forms of organization of port operations- government controlled or private- are examined.
