[edit] Defenition

What is the defenition used in this article for a deep water port? I see the Port of Beaumont listed as a deepwater port, but 40 feet is not really deep in my opinion. Maybe for US standards, but not global. 194.151.10.81 21:49, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deep water, deep-water or deepwater?

[edit] Chandler? St. John's? Long Beach?

Why include Chandler-Quebec? Yes it is a long wharf (900 feet), but there are quite a number of other deep-water wharves along the Atlantic, and they are not listed here. Meanwhile, why is St. John's Harbour (N&L) not included here? It is certainly more important than Chandler as an Atlantic deep water port. And why is the Port of Long Beach (CA) also not listed here? It qualifies as deep water by accommodating Panamax vessels, and is the largest Pacific port in the Western Hemisphere. Bizarre reasoning here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atikokan (talk • contribs) 23:57, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
