Washington, DC \u2013 Los senadores estadounidenses de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley y Ron Wyden, y el representante estadounidense Val Hoyle (OR-04), emitieron hoy la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n conjunta despu\u00e9s de que el Departamento de Transporte de Estados Unidos (USDOT) no seleccion\u00f3 la solicitud del puerto internacional de Coos Bay en Oreg\u00f3n. para una mega subvenci\u00f3n de $1.250 millones, tambi\u00e9n conocida como subvenci\u00f3n de asistencia para proyectos de infraestructura nacional financiada a trav\u00e9s de la Ley de Infraestructura Bipartidista, en la primera ronda de financiaci\u00f3n del programa que se habr\u00eda utilizado para crear un nuevo e importante puerto de contenedores en la costa oeste en Coos. Bay para abordar los cuellos de botella de la cadena de suministro, impulsar la econom\u00eda y crear miles de empleos sindicales bien remunerados:<\/p>\n
\n\u201cDecir que estamos frustrados y profundamente decepcionados porque el USDOT decidi\u00f3 no otorgar una megasubvenci\u00f3n al puerto de Coos Bay para un nuevo puerto de contenedores en la primera ronda de financiaci\u00f3n es quedarse corto. Este proyecto esencial, que cuenta con una amplia base de apoyo bipartidista sin precedentes, encaja perfectamente con el programa que se estableci\u00f3 para financiar grandes proyectos cr\u00edticos que de otro modo ser\u00edan inalcanzables sin asistencia.<\/p>\n
\u201cEl amontonamiento de barcos en la costa oeste alimenta a\u00fan m\u00e1s los problemas cr\u00f3nicos de la cadena de suministro, que se espera que empeoren a medida que se prev\u00e9 que los flujos de contenedores en la regi\u00f3n crezcan a un ritmo r\u00e1pido en el futuro. Est\u00e1 claro que necesitamos modernizar la infraestructura portuaria de nuestra naci\u00f3n sin demora para abordar esta crisis, del mismo modo que est\u00e1 claro que el subutilizado puerto de Coos Bay proporciona una soluci\u00f3n perfecta. Como el puerto de aguas profundas m\u00e1s grande entre Puget Sound y San Francisco, expandir la capacidad de contenedores del Puerto de Coos Bay aumentar\u00eda inmediatamente la capacidad del puerto de la Costa Oeste hasta en un 10 por ciento; ning\u00fan otro lugar a lo largo de la costa tiene esa capacidad.<\/p>\n
\u201cLa capacidad de expansi\u00f3n del Puerto de Coos Bay est\u00e1 respaldada adem\u00e1s por un canal de navegaci\u00f3n federal existente, una l\u00ednea ferroviaria que conecta con el sistema ferroviario Clase I y cientos de acres de terreno industrial no desarrollado con acceso r\u00e1pido y f\u00e1cil a mar abierto y a los mercados internacionales. en Asia y m\u00e1s all\u00e1. Este proyecto ofrece al pa\u00eds un gran impulso en la capacidad de transporte sin el correspondiente aumento de la contaminaci\u00f3n por carbono, gracias a una serie de funciones de reducci\u00f3n de carbono como el planchado en fr\u00edo y la carga de barco a ferrocarril.<\/p>\n
\u201cSi bien ser ignorado para una mega subvenci\u00f3n del USDOT en esta primera ronda de financiaci\u00f3n es un gran golpe, este no es de ninguna manera el final de la visi\u00f3n de traer un puerto de contenedores a Coos Bay. Continuaremos luchando con todas las herramientas a nuestro alcance para garantizar que el USDOT d\u00e9 luz verde a este proyecto para futuras oportunidades de financiamiento mientras trabajamos con los l\u00edderes del proyecto para presionar a los l\u00edderes locales, estatales y nacionales para que identifiquen otras fuentes de financiamiento necesarias para poner este puerto de contenedores en l\u00ednea. Ahora es el momento de reducir la congesti\u00f3n de la cadena de suministro en la costa oeste, lo que ser\u00e1 un factor clave para reducir la inflaci\u00f3n y traer empleos y prosperidad econ\u00f3mica a la costa sur de Oreg\u00f3n\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Los senadores Merkley y Wyden y el representante Hoyle se reunieron recientemente con el secretario de Transporte, Pete Buttigieg, para instar al USDOT a apoyar el proyecto y expresaron su decepci\u00f3n por el hecho de que el puerto de Coos Bay haya sido ignorado para una mega subvenci\u00f3n en la primera ronda de financiaci\u00f3n. Instaron firmemente al Secretario a priorizar el proyecto para futuras oportunidades de financiamiento federal. Los senadores Merkley y Wyden tambi\u00e9n han estado participando en conversaciones de alto nivel con la administraci\u00f3n Biden y el liderazgo del Congreso durante el a\u00f1o pasado con respecto a las decisiones de Mega Grant del USDOT, incluida una Carta de la delegaci\u00f3n de Oreg\u00f3n de marzo de 2022<\/a> y conversaciones directas posteriores con el presidente Joe Biden y el secretario Buttigieg, donde defendieron la solicitud del Puerto de Coos Bay.<\/p>\nLa delegaci\u00f3n de Oreg\u00f3n continuar\u00e1 apoyando al Puerto de Coos Bay en el proceso de solicitud para futuras consideraciones de financiamiento mientras trabajan con la administraci\u00f3n de Biden para navegar un posible camino a seguir para invertir en la realizaci\u00f3n del proyecto cr\u00edtico.<\/p>\n
