Additionally, the Lt. Governor and the Speaker of the House each appoint a member bringing the total committee membership to nine.

The committee provides a forum for the exchange of information between the Transportation Commission, TxDOT and committee members representing the port industry in Texas and others who have an interest in ports.  The committee's advice and recommendations provide the commission and the department with a broad perspective regarding ports and transportation-related matters to be considered in formulating department policies concerning the Texas port system.
