The Legislature should consider terminating the West Virginia Public Port Authority because it receives no funding, has no employees or future projects.

Report Details

Report Description: 
The objective of this review was to determine the level of benefit the Port Authority provides to the state of West Virginia, and whether there is a continued need for the agency’s existence. The Legislative Auditor finds that the Port Authority receives no funding, has no employees or future projects, and holds no benefit to the state of West Virginia. Additionally, the agency is currently inactive, does not implement key duties and responsibilities designated by the W. Va. State Code, and has incurred more expenditures than revenue in recent years.
