Barge Transportation is advertised as being the most efficient means of commodity transport…However, tonnage is relatively constant. Average Annual growth between for total tonnage was.7% per year. Tonnage for several major commodity groups is down from the late 1970 avg. to late 1990 avg. Decreases for petroleum products; agricultural chemicals. Review comparative growth rates for barge transportation vs. other modes. Barge Elasticity Study Issues (limited list… need team input)

Limited List of Current Galveston District Studies Brazos River Floodgates: Initiated Section 216 Study to examine possible modifications to existing structure. Reconnaissance phase study has been completed. The feasibility phase study is on hold pending funding. Possibility of removing gates will be addressed in feasibility phase. Study effects of San Bernard River Gulf opening. Colorado River Bypass Channel: A comprehensive study by WES is underway to address currents at the GIWW and mouth of the bypass channel. WES will look at the effect of opening Southwest Cut and/or Parkers Cut using existing Construction General authority, of the mouth of the Colorado River project. The WES study is scheduled for completion in December High Island to Brazos River Section 216 Study Brazos River to Pt. OConnor Section 216 Study Pt.
