The Port of Baltimore's public terminals received a near-perfect score from the Coast Guard, a great improvement over a similar exam in 2007, state officials said in a press release.

Since then, several security enhancements have taken place at the port. The port requires transportation workers have a federally-mandated TWIC card, uses real-time video and security checks to verify a trucker's ID and the purpose of his visit and strengthens the fencing surrounding all the port's public terminals.
