US CDV marks Cordova, a single-basin harbour on Prince William Sound that owes its name in freight circles to world-famous Copper River salmon. The town has no link to Alaska's road network, so every commercial shipment arrives by barge, vessel or Alaska Marine Highway ferry. Its Municipal Dock handles general cargo, RoRo and container barges, while the T-Dock receives petroleum and tanker traffic. Roughly 30,000 tonnes of cargo and over 1,000 vessels are processed each year, the bulk tied to fishing and local resupply. Forwarders should treat Cordova as a seasonal fishing and feeder-barge port rather than a scheduled container gateway, routing containerised or customs-cleared freight through Anchorage's Don Young Port of Alaska or Valdez instead.
