Board of Directors

The NJ State Legislature established the South Jersey Port Corporation to acquire, construct, improve, operate and maintain terminals within the South Jersey Port District.  South Jersey Port Corporation is in but not of the Department of Treasury. (For more information see P.L. 1998, c. 44 of 06/30/98 effective 08/29/98.)

On January 23, 2008, Governor Corzine signed legislation that increased the South Jersey Port Corporation Board from seven to eleven Directors. This action also added the State Treasurer, ex officio, or the Treasurer’s designated representative who would be a voting member of the Corporation, to the Board. The ten public members must each reside in the Port District.

SJPC Port District is comprised of seven counties:  Mercer, Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, Salem, Cape May and Cumberland.  There are three subdistricts:

Subdistrict 1:  Mercer and Burlington Counties:  Three members
Subdistrict 2:  Camden and Gloucester Counties:  Five members
Subdistrict 3:  Salem, Cape May and Cumberland Counties:  Two members

The SJPC is governed by the Board of Directors, with one directorship currently unfilled. The chair is Richard A. Alaimo who has served on the board since its creation. The other members are: Chad M. Bruner, Gloucester County; Robert A. DeAngelo, Sr., City of Paulsboro; Jonathan S. Gershen, Mercer County; William R. Higgins, Salem County; Joseph A. Maressa, Jr., Camden County; Eric E. Martins, Mercer County; Sheila Roberts, City of Camden; Rev. Carl E. Styles, Salem County; and Christopher Chianese, designee of the State Treasurer.
