In what is more of a PR blurb than news article, Crain's Business today reported [1] that "Port study completion docked until summer". As I recall, there had been plans for Cuyahoga County to fund a port study, for $100,000, and the Port was planning their own study, so I am curious which this is. More important, I wonder why the new director would choose to delay gaining professional, independent insight to help him "evaluate the port and its operations"... I'll be interested in Ed Hauser's take on this, which I'll post here shortly.

Completion of a study by URS Corp. on the expansion needs of Cleveland’s port operations, initially due in February, has been delayed until this summer.
The change will allow Adam Wasserman, the new president and CEO of the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority, to evaluate the port and its operations. Mr. Wasserman arrived in Cleveland in late February from a port development post in Yorkshire, England.
