码头区和码头装卸
Explanation:
我最初是同意一楼的观点的，但细读之后发现“码头区和码头装卸”似乎更合理一些。“waterfront and stevedoring requirements" 可译成：“对码头区和码头装卸的要求”

金山词霸的解释：

waterfront 水边地码头区, 滨水地区

stevedore n. 搬运工 v.装（卸）货：给（船）装货或卸货或从事给船装货或卸货的过程

waterfront dispute = 码头工人罢工:

http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:S6JSG8yYZSAJ:abc.net.au/...

'waterfront and stevedoring' should be one term. It refers to unions, and, I am not sure what else, - employers, harbour boards...

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 12 hrs (2007-02-08 02:35:07 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

it is about 'labour relations', who does what work, demarcation, etc, all the terms that have been agreed between the employers and worker unions about what should be done, and how it should be done.
