TACOMA, WA-The Port of Tacoma said Thursday it will build a $300-million, 168-acre container terminal on the industrial east side of Tacoma’s Blair Waterway. The facility will be leased to a container terminal operator owned by NYK Line upon completion in 2012.

The deal was approved by NYK Line at its Board of Directors meeting yesterday in Tokyo. The Port of Tacoma Commission will hold a special meeting in Tacoma tonight to approve the final lease.

The lease agreement, with Yusen Terminal Tacoma Inc., marks NYK’s expansion into the Puget Sound region. Another NYK subsidiary with a similar name operates a terminal in the Port of Los Angeles.
