In a short statement issued on its website on Friday, the port authority said her departure was effective that day.
Her departure comes as port management has been stressing the urgency of a major expansion project, even as cargo volumes have declined in recent years.
The release did not state the reason for her departure.
The organization says it will ensure an orderly transition as it moves forward during a recruitment process to replace Gascon.
