The Alabama Port Authority Board has appointed Doug Otto as its permanent director and CEO, following his successful role as interim CEO since August. Otto's leadership comes at a pivotal time, with over $ 1.1 bn invested in infrastructure projects such as the Mobile harbour deepening to 50 feet, numerous terminal expansions and a new intermodal transfer facility in Montgomery.
His extensive experience, including roles with the US Army Corps of Engineers and as a US Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter, positions him well to guide the port through this period of growth and major development. Otto's tenure aligns with ongoing capital projects and a strategic review, aiming to shape the port's long-term future and strengthen Alabama's vital role in global trade.
