The Northwest Tennessee Regional Port Authority, the official site of the Port of Cates Landing, is an independent government agency established by communities in Dyer, Lake, and Obion Counties. The authority oversees safe and effective shipping operations throughout the inland waterway.
Beyond shipping logistics, the port also serves as a development location for river cargoes, playing a growing role in the region's economic future and supporting jobs tied to the county's industrial growth.
