Scope of Port Operations

The port is designated to be open exclusively to coastwise trade.
Coastwise trade refers to the shipment of goods and passengers between ports within the Philippines.

Legal Authority and Effectivity

The declaration is made under the powers vested in the President of the Philippines by law.
The order was signed by President Carlos P. Garcia and became effective on September 28, 1960, in Manila.

Administrative Endorsement

The Executive Secretary, Natalio P. Castillo, countersigned the executive order.

Significance

Declaring the port as a national port implies its recognition and regulation under national maritime policies.
Restriction to coastwise trade ensures that the port serves domestic shipping needs and excludes foreign trade operations.
