If you've spent time along the tidelands of San Diego Bay, did you know you were enjoying the state lands entrusted to the Port of San Diego? The Port of San Diego is a public agency, created by the state Legislature in 1962 to manage San Diego harbor & the surrounding tidelands. Former California Senator Jim Mills, who was instrumental in the creation of the San Diego Unified Port District, sat down with the Port's Communications and Community Services department, to explain why the Port was created and its significance to the region. http://bit.ly/aU1MFB
