Abstract:

In August 2004, Tom Eager was appointed CEO of the N.C. State Ports Authority. Having begun as a delivery truck driver, he brings three decades of shipping experience to the job. North Carolina's ports employ about 4,000 at Morehead City and Wilmington. Channel-deepening has increased tonnage in Wilmington by 25%, and Eager plans to expand the port by adding three container-shipping lines over the next three years.
