Great Lakes/St. Lawrence Seaway Regional Transportation Study; Analysis of Freight Rates.

Abstract

This report is the documentation of the freight rate data base for an evaluation of NED transportation benefits for GL/SLS navigation improvements. This report provides the Great Lakes total logistics cost and a similar cost for an alternate transportation routing. Additional costs per ton become the basis for estimation of benefits for alleviating future lock capacity constraints. (Author)
