		Port Authority of New York and New Jersey on Encyclopedia.com
		In 1917 the governors of New York and New Jersey appointed a bistate commission to study the problem of coordinating port and harbor development for the two states as a whole in an attempt to resolve the many disputes between the states concerning such matters as boundaries, marine police jurisdiction, and freight rates.
		Originally called the Port of New York Authority, the name was changed in 1972 to reflect the joint administration of the port.

	British Airways v. Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		As the proprietor of two airports in America's most populous city, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey was thrust at an early date into the forefront of efforts to accommodate the needs of commercial aviation with the understandable desire of airport neighbors to enjoy a reasonable degree of peace and tranquility.
		The Port Authority accordingly retained a consulting firm in 1955, and charged it with developing a method of meaningful quantification of the relative reactions of individuals to the quite different character of noise produced by existing propeller driven aircraft and newer jet engines.
		Since New York is this country's most important international gateway, it is not surprising that the manufacturers of the Concorde, the world's first supersonic commercial passenger airplane, communicated their desire to use JFK to the Port Authority more than seven years ago.

		On December 13, 1984, the Port Authority's Board of Commissioners enacted an exemption from compliance with the Final Rule for those carriers which could demonstrate that an exemption was necessary on the grounds of national security and foreign relations.
		The Port Authority, in the past, has been sued for damage by the communities around JFK and the freight and expense of defending such suits is a factor that the Port Authority properly takes into consideration in adhering to the noise control enactment.
		The enforcement of the Port Authority noise rules and the future owner's exemption program have led to a decrease in noise at Port Authority airports as of January 1, 1985, due to the introduction of Stage 3 aircraft.

	UTU: News
		NEW YORK CITY -- The chairman of the bi-state agency that oversees transportation projects in the area said a $4.5 billion project to build a new commuter rail tunnel under the Hudson River is the single most important transportation need for the New York region, according to this Reuters report.
		Anthony Coscia, chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, told Reuters in a recent interview that the project, known as "Access to the Region's Core," or ARC, should be considered ahead of a slate of billions of dollars worth of other transportation projects competing for limited government funds.
		Moreover, the Port Authority's three principal crossings between the two states -- the George Washington Bridge, and the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels, were built decades ago and require many millions of dollars to maintain, partly due to heavy usage, Coscia said.
