Performance Monitoring System. Summary of Lock Statistics for January-March 1984.
Abstract
The lock Performance Monitoring System (PMS), which is part of the Inland Navigation Systems Analysis program, encompasses the collection, editing, maintenance and analysis of data collected at all Army Corps of Engineers owned and operated locks. The data have been collected since March of 1975 and consist of information describing the water traffic through the locks as well as the physical aspects of lockages. The quarterly summary of selected statistics presented in the appendix provides an overview of the traffic and operation at each lock. The quarterly report is presented as a set of three tables for each Corps District. Information reported for each lock and chamber includes: (1) A listing providing the name of the lock, the river on which the lock is and its dimensions. (2) A table providing, by direction and total, the number of tows, commercial vessels other than tows, recreational vessels, barges (empty and loaded), commercial lockages, recreational lockages and tonnage, and (3) A summary of approach, entry, chambering and exit times (maximum, minimum and average) and the number of delays, total delay time, maximum delay time and average delay time.
