WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA) announced that the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) awarded a grant of $772,800 to the Port of Morgan City for the procurement of a new crane to be used at the terminal facility.
Congressman Higgins penned a letter of support for this project to USDOT Secretary Sean Duffy in July of 2025. Read the letter here.
“The Port of Morgan City is a major economic asset to the surrounding region, and the new crane project makes it even more competitive,” said Rep. Higgins. “This investment will increase efficiency, reduce vessel turnaround times, and help expand the Port’s economic activity for years to come.”
