The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of various types and levels of waterway user charges levied on the projected 1985 and 1990 fertilizer transportation industries. The impact of waterway user charges are analyzed through computer modelling techniques, which provide the following information for analysis of each waterway user charge scenario: Barge, rail, truck, and pipeline modal shares by fertilizer, market, and production facility; Fertilizer market patterns by fertilizer, market, production facility and mode of transport; Total cost of fertilizer distribution by fertilizer, market, production facility, and mode of transport; Tax collected by type of fertilizer and river and Total revenue collected by mode of transport.
