The Carnival Fantasy sits at dock in Charleston, S.C., on March 20, 2014. It's been four years since the South Carolina Ports Authority announced plans to build a $35 million passenger cruise terminal nearby. The agency has not yet again applied for a federal permit that was tossed out by a federal judge last year. Authority spokeswoman Erin Pabst says the agency has been focused on a state permit, which has been challenged in court. She said the authority is committed to the project and plans to seek all necessary permits. (AP Photo/Bruce Smith)
