	Western Port not the answer to channel deepening - Opinion - www.theage.com.au
		Western Port was perfect for sailing ships in 1800, but is not for a modern industrial port.
		Western Port is a massive tidal wetland, about 40 per cent of which is dry twice a day.
		The inevitable polluting effects of port development and port operation - oil spills, introduced marine pests, as well as the ever-necessary dredging - are not therefore confined to the port area: a pollution event anywhere in the bay would in a short time affect the whole bay.

		Port Hedland is an industrial center focused on the extraction, processing and exporting of iron-ore from the massive deposits in surrounding ranges.

	Melbourne Water : Publications : Fact Sheets : Rivers and Creeks : Protecting Western Port
		Melbourne Water initiated and contributed $210,000 to a three-year research project conducted by CSIRO Land and Water to determine whether sediment found in Western Port originated from farms, roads or stream erosion.
		Fine-grained sediment in Western Port is highly mobile and concentrated in the eastern and southern deposition zones as a result of clockwise redistribution.
		The Western Port study provided Melbourne Water with the information required to further reduce sediment inputs to Western Port.

		Western Port is an area of vital importance, an area that Bayer Australia in partnership with Parks Victoria and Greening Australia has decided to help preserve and protect.

	Parks Victoria: Yaringa Marine National Park page
		Western Port occupies part of a depression caused by faulting along the edges of the Bay, described by geomorphologists as the Western Port sunkland, between the Mornington Peninsula to the West and the South Gippsland Highlands to the East.
		Rivers draining into Western Port are predominantly small in flow, resulting in Westerport being essentially a marine, rather than estuarine inlet (as is Port Phillip).
		The mud (consisting of silt, clay and orgnaic matter) was derived partly from inwashed river sediment, and partly the reworking by waves and tidal currents of fine-grained material derived from outcrops around and beneath the bay.

	RTÉ News: £20m development for Killybegs fishing port
		Fishermen have been complaining that conditions in the port have been limiting expansion of the industry.
		Together with expected expansion in the local fleet under renewal and replacement schemes, there is a lot of pressure on pier space, which has been causing problems for vessels preparing to go to sea and unloading catches in port.
		There has been some concern that plans announced like this take some time to go ahead and can be subject to the political mood of the time, but the Minister said he had put a firm timetable in place.

	Capturing the Port of Nagoya - Cracker GOTM9
		The attacking regular horseman was barely defeated by our veteran war chariot covering the stack of war chariots that was in range of the Japanese port city of Nagoya.
		After taking the Japanese port city the two key priorities would be reinforcing the captured territory to brace for a counterattack and establishing a continuous road link into the Japanese interior.
		This “Ferry Boating” skill is sometimes referred to as “ship hopping” in some discussion forums and it reflects a key transportation skill that can selectively increase the single turn reach of units that must use water borne transport.

	AM - Victoria Govt, Oppn battle it out over water
		The State Liberal Party and the Federal Liberals seem to be at odds over desalination, and the Prime Minister's made it quite clear that he prefers recycling over desalination, yet the State Liberals are going with a desalination plant before they've even done a feasibility study on it.
		That was the context in which it was raised, because Western Port Bay is a fragile environment and it has a Ramsar wetland there.
		We said that we would have a major recycling proposal, with the upgrade of the eastern treatment plant, and we said that we would conduct a feasibility study to determine the feasibility of desalination.

	UAE, Jolted by Port Deal, Is Key Western Arms Buyer
		UNITED NATIONS - The United Arab Emirates (UAE), the center of a growing controversy over its proposed management of U.S. port terminals, is one of the world's most prolific arms buyers and a multi-billion-dollar military market both for the United States and Western Europe.
		Despite growing bipartisan opposition to the deal -- mostly prompted by a fear-psychosis that U.S. ports should not be managed by a state-owned Arab company because of possible terrorist infiltration -- Bush says the UAE has been a strong U.S. ally in the fight against global terrorism.
		But an equally significant fact in the longstanding bilateral relationship is that the UAE is a vibrant arms market not only for the United States but also its allies in Western Europe, particularly France and Britain.
