Today a controlling depth of roughly 1.8 m limits navigation, and the Maine state capital handles virtually no commercial cargo, containers or customs traffic. Regional sea freight moves instead through Portland, the state's largest port, or Mack Point at Searsport.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/augusta-port-us-aug","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/augusta-port-us-aug","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Augusta · (UN/LOCODE: US AUG) · United States · Very Small · 1.8 m"}
