The Setting and the Involved Entities Sample Clauses

The Setting and the Involved Entities. As noted, the Port of Portland is a political subdivision of the State of Oregon. It is governed by the Port Commission whose members are appointed by the Governor of Oregon. The Port owns T6, a large marine terminal on the Columbia River at Portland, some 100 nautical miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. Terminal 6, situated on a 400-plus acre site, is primari- ly a container terminal designed and equipped to load and un- load seagoing container vessels, and to park incoming and out- going cargo containers while awaiting shipment by land or sea. Some smaller segments of T6 also serve as a terminal for im- ported autos and for break-bulk goods but this matter concerns only the container operation.

Unlike the Port, MTC/PA held membership in the PMA throughout its tenure at T6.7 However, the Port continued to directly employ other work- ers to maintain the physical facilities and equipment it owned at T6 as well as at other Port-owned terminals. These other work- ers included the Local 48-represented electricians and others in the skilled trades pursuant to a collective-bargaining agreement with the District Council of Trade Unions (DCTU), an umbrella labor organization in Portland comprised of several different craft unions plus a municipal workers union. Throughout this period, the Port also employed administrative and professional personnel to market its terminal services and to manage its agreements with the carriers (the steamship lines) using the Port’s terminal services to process their cargo.
