Book Description
This report to the Corps of Engineers describes one of three independent but complementary studies of future freight traffic on the Ohio River Basin Navigation System. Each of the studies considers existing waterborne commerce and develops a consistent set of projections of future traffic demands for all of the navigable waterways of the Basin. Each report contains information on past and present waterborne commerce in the Basin and projections by commodity group and origin-destination areas from 1975 to at least 1990. The study and the 1975-1990 traffic projections discussed in this report were developed by surveying all waterway users in the Ohio River Basin through a combined mail survey and personal interview approach. The purpose of the survey was to obtain an estimate from each individual shipper of his future commodity movements by specified origins and destinations, as well as other associated traffic information.

Book Description
This report documents the development of long-term traffic demand projections for the Ohio River Navigation (ORS). The ORS comprises over 2600 miles of commercially-navigable rivers, serving much of the basic industry located in the Ohio River Basin (ORB). The ORS is comprised by the Ohio River and seven major navigable tributaries, including the Allegheny, Monongahela , Kanawa, Kentucky, Green, Cumberland, and Tennessee rivers. In 1986, this system carried approximately 224 tons of commodity traffic. This report is presented in two volumes: Part I, Industry Analysis, and Part II, Commodity Traffic Demand Forecasts. ORS commodity traffic is comprised of the inputs to and outputs from specific industrial processes. With this in mind, Part I presents an analysis of past and expected future developments in those ORB industries that generate significant amounts of waterway commodity traffic. The industries discussed are the electric utility, coal mining, petroleum refining, quarrying, construction, agriculture, chemicals, nonferrous metals, steel, and paper industries. Part II presents traffic demand forecast for the period 1986-2050 according to nine commodity grouping used in economic system modeling. These groupings are coal and coke, petroleum fuels, crude petroleum, aggregates, grains, chemicals, ores and minerals, iron and steel, and miscellaneous commodities. The forecasts are presented for the ORS, for individual rivers, and for lock and dam projects. In addition, high and low alternative forecasts are presented in Part II, Section 12.

Book Description
This report describes one of three independent but complementary studies of future freight traffic on the Ohio River Basin Navigation System. Each of the studies considers existing waterborne commerce and develops a consistent set of projections of future traffic demands of all of the navigable waterways of the basin. Each report contains information on past and present waterborne commerce in the basin and projections by commodity group and origin-destination areas from 1975 to at least 1990. This report and the 1975-1990 projected traffic demands discussed in it were developed by correlating the historic waterborne commodity flows on the Ohio River Navigation System with various indicators of regional and national demands for the commodities. The demand variable (s) which appeared to best describe the historic traffic pattern for each of the commodity groups was selected for projection purposes. The historic and projected values for the demand variables are based upon the 1972 OBERS Series E Projections of National and Regional Economic Activity.
