Plans for a deepwater container terminal in Jasper County remain on schedule for a projected 2025 opening, the McClathy-Tribune Regional News reported.

        "I think we can make 2025, but everything has to fall into place," said David Sanborn of the California-based design engineering firm Moffatt and Nichol.

        The East Coast's newest container port, to be built on the South Carolina side of the Savannah River, will feature 10 berths, a turning basin and road and rail infrastructure on approximately 1,000 to 1,100 acres of the 1,500-acre site in Jasper County.
