NBC Nightly News had a story on tonight that clears part of that up. The contract is for management of the ports, which certainly has some security issues, but the security of the ports is still the responsibility of US law enforcement and military -- ie Coast Guard.
My concern is still the difficulty of oversight of the security issues such as background checks, etc. during the hiring process.
