James White will return as the head of the Maryland Port Authority. White was originally named to be the head of the MPA in 1999 and was forced to resign in 2005, for political reasons, which infuriated the Maryland Port community. He was replaced by F. Brooks Royster III, who has recently been criticized for not increasing the number of contracts held by the MPA.

White was largely regarded as the best port administrator in MPA's history, and his focus will be on developing new jobs for the area. The remainder of Royster's five-year contract will be paid out to make way for White's return. White's return is as politically charged as his departure was, but the MPA community views White as the person most likely to improve port employment in Baltimore. Overall, shipping is up in the Port of Baltimore, but primarily due to existing contracts. White's return date has not been determined.
