S D Pulford disputes Hammond Sperry claims on port authority by arguing the statute permits river improvements only for shipping in the upper river within port boundaries. He asserts the lower river is not mandated for benefit and cites the permissive may language and overall intent to limit dredging to waters within the port area.
