That similar pattern was resolved when Norfolk coal terminals were inundated with colliers back in the 1980’s. About the same amount of vessels juking for a spot. Went to the ups system. not before massive pollution and crowding of the anchorages and the nearby beaches having trash and bilges arrive with every tide… A bit before OPA 90. History has sometimes repeated itself, perhaps West Coast remembers the problems we had, perhaps not.
