National Waterways Study: Evaluation of the Present Navigation System.

Abstract

Evaluation of the present waterway system is based on four scenarios of future waterborne commodity flow projections and several sensitivity analyses. Earlier reports of the National Waterways report involves determining water transportation needs by comparing forecasts of present and projected water transportation use with estimates of the capability of the waterway system. This report presents findings regarding the ability of the present waterway system to handle current and projected waterborne commodity flows.
