The local picture 02

Why ports & terminals accumulates in Port Allen

The Port of Greater Baton Rouge's Port Allen complex offers 3,000 feet of wharf and 525,000 square feet of warehouse space, with a grain export elevator and liquid bulk terminals among its tenants. Placid Refining's refinery sits in the same small city.

Terminal cable is conveyor and leg motor feeder, dock distribution, crane festoon and the dust-rated tray cable that grain handling requires. Refinery cable sits alongside it but is reviewed separately.

The area classification is the detail that matters most in a grain terminal. Cable installed in a classified area carries a listing, and if the print has gone, the listing has gone with it.

Access and freight. Port Allen is served by I-10 and U.S. 190, which meet LA 1 and LA 415, and by CPKC, Union Pacific and Canadian National. The lock and the port make it a genuine multi-modal node rather than a riverside address.

Questions —

Port Allen questions

What makes grain terminal cable different?

The area classification. Combustible dust means cable must carry a listing, and that listing is printed on the jacket.

Do you buy from terminal tenants?

Yes, with the tenant's and the port's release. Port tenants usually have good records of what crosses their wharves.

Can you collect on the west bank?

Yes, and it is often easier than the Baton Rouge side because the industrial parks are less congested.

Is Placid refinery material included?

It is a separate lot with its own release, but it can be reviewed on the same visit.
