The study covers an engineering and economic investigation of the past history of the port operations, estimates of future operations based on projections of cargo to be handled, and the required dockage, transfer and supporting facilities to adequately meet these future requirements, as well as the necessary utilities and transportation facilities to support industrial expansion in the port area. The engineering study includes preliminary design to arrive at cost estimates for the expanded facilities and the economic study covers the economic feasibility of the proposed improvements, as well as the impact of the project on the economy of the southwest Mississippi development district.
