About the Port: The Port of Stockton was established under the California Harbors and Navigation Code. It is governed by a seven-member Board of Commissioners (Board). Four commissioners are appointed by the Stockton City Council and three by the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors. The day-to-day administration of Port operations is under the direction of the Port Director who is selected by and serves at the will of the Board. The Port is a deep-water port located seventy-five miles inland from San Francisco, in the agricultural heartland of California in San Joaquin County. The Port owns and operates marine terminals which are used to load and unload cargo from ships, barges, trucks, and railcars, and to store cargos. Cargos handled by the Port include various dry and liquid bulk, general, and project cargos in the agriculture, foods, infrastructure and building, energy, and renewable fuels commodity sectors. The Port also leases land and warehousing facilities to a number of diverse tenants. Port operations are self-supporting and receive no direct tax subsidies.
