Salt Shipments by Vessel
The total salt brought into the port was 520,43 I MT delivered by 25 vessels. It was a Challenging year
for salt owners as a shortage in domestic salt mining production necessitated the import ofsalt from
Chili and Egypt. In total, 5 vessels ofsalt were imported in 20] 8. These vessels do not have self-
unloaders and ship cranes are used with grabs 10 bucket out thc salt, a very labour intensive process.
While salt did not reach our record-breaking year reported in 20] 7, it (lid stay 0n par with our 5 year
average. Summary 0f salt vessels is below.

summer were quickly put lo rest once the harvest started. The overall volume 0f grain handled through
the elevator was 742,81 8 MT. This is the second largest volume of grain handled at the Port andrepresents a 19.1% increase in volume over 2017. The highlights 0f201 8:
The most grain ever received at the Port in a single year: 390,526 MTThe first-time soybean receipts at harvest were over 200,000 MT: 205,924 MTThe first-time annual soybean receipts were over 200,000 MT: 232,992 MTWheat receipts at harvest were up by 65% compared lo 20 I 7
Corn receipts (luring harvest were up by l l 1% compared to 201 7
The soybean harvest started two weeks earlier than usual due t0 the hot, dry summer. However, the
dry weather did not last, and the harvest was slowed due t0 the cool, wet weather that arrived towards
the end 0f September and lasted into November.
The chart below highlights the volume of grain handled per month (receipts and shipments) over the
last four years.

The wheat handled at the Port was up in 201 8 compared to the previous year. The volume handled was44,330 MT which was an increase 0f 17,526 MT over 201 7. The hot, dry summer had a positive
impact the wheat yields from thc previous year where the cool, wet weather negatively impacted
yields.
The amount 0f com received in 2018 was also up compared to the previous year. The amount 0f corn
received at harvest (Oct, Nov, Dec) was 77,734 MT which was an increase 0f40,855 MT compared to
2017. The Port started receiving dry corn on October 30'“. The lack 0f storage space in the main
building delayed receiving wet corn until the end ofNovember.
Receipts ofnon-GMO corn increased in 201 8 t0 19,218 MT which is up by 2,347 MT from the
receipts in 201 7. The customer was satisfied with the way their corn was handled and with the level of
service provided to the point where they expressed an interest in an expanded storage agreement t0
secure additional space at the Port.
Soybean volume was also up in 201 8. In fact, 201 8 was the first year where the volume of soybeans
exceeded 200,000 MT. The volume received at harvest (Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec) was 205,924 MT while
the total received throughout the year was 232,992 MT. At one point in time, the Port had over 88,000
MT 0f soybeans in stores waiting for the arrival of several vessels. This did require the filling of one
ofthe Annex bins in order to keep receiving. The vessel delays also necessitated the reduction in
delivery appointments from October 29‘“ t0 November l1‘“.

o New spouting for dryer bins 10 improve efficiency and increase the storage space for dry grain
from the dryer.
o Grain temperature monitoring system - Phase 2 which added an additional 9O temperatures
cables. This brings to total numbers of bins under surveillance to 204.
o Install an airline the length ofbuilding on the bin floor to facilitate the sweeping ofbins using
compressed air. This method eliminated the need for a confined space entry to clean the bins.
o Installed new steel plating in lofter pit #2 to eliminate a water leakage issue.
o Hydraulic pump system for marine to replace a leaking system.
