1Opinion of the Court
CHIN, Circuit Judge:
In this case, Continental Terminals, Inc. (“Continental”) sued the Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor (the “Commission”) for a "declaratory judgment that its operations at a warehouse in Jersey City, New Jersey were outside the Commission’s jurisdiction. Because we conclude that Continental engages in stevedoring activities at the warehouse and that the warehouse is an “other waterfront terminal” within the meaning of the Waterfront Commission Act (the “Act”), we hold that its operations fall within the jurisdiction of the Commission.
