Clarification
Elizabeth River Terminals may be for sale, but the Chesapeake
dry-bulk cargo terminal won't necessarily go to the highest bidder.
``We are talking to a limited number of prospects and it is not
about the best offer,'' said Cees van de Mortel, president and chief
executive of the subsidiary of Van Ommeren N.V., the Dutch shipping
giant. ``We are looking for an owner who will be good for the
business, good for our employees and good for our reputation in the
U.S. . . . We don't want to sell to some flight-by-night operator.
There are many more issues than price.''
