(1) Includes
all container ports in the 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico.
NOTE: TEUs = 20-foot equivalent units. One 20-foot
container equals 1 TEU while one 40-foot container equals 2 TEUs. The data in
this table include only loaded containers engaged in U.S.-international
maritime activity. Data include U.S.
imports, exports, and transshipments. Transshipments neither originate nor
are destined for the United States but pass through it from one foreign
country to another. For example, an automobile component shipped from Japan
and destined for Mexico, may pass through the Ports of Los Angeles and Long
Beach before being trucked to Mexico. Therefore the trade levels will be
greater than those reported in U.S.-international trade statistics, which
exclude transshipments. The data also exclude military shipments.

Administration, September 2005; based on Journal
of Commerce, Port Import/Export Reporting
Services (PIERS) data multiple years.
