About This Seaport
The Seafarers International Union, not a cargo operator, defines Piney Point today: its Paul Hall Center is the largest U.S. training school for deep-sea and inland merchant mariners. Sitting where the Potomac River meets St. George's Creek in St. Mary's County, Maryland, the site once hosted the Steuart Petroleum terminal, which shipped fuel on the Potomac and Chesapeake Bay for some 45 years until the 1990s. Its former deep-water pier no longer handles commercial liner or general-cargo traffic. Shippers in the Chesapeake region route real freight through the Port of Baltimore or Potomac terminals near Washington.
