During a Wednesday morning event, NextDecade CEO Matt Schatzman signed an agreement to privately fund deepening the South Texas waterway from its entrance at the Gulf of Mexico to company’s proposed export terminal.
The Port of Brownsville has held a permit to deepen the ship channel from 42 feet to 52 feet for years but lacked local, state and federal funding.
