This report analyzes the need and economic justification for additional improvements to the system to meet the needs of present and future deep-draft commerce and to provide for safe, efficient navigation at these facilities. Investigations were made on: types and levels of historic commodity movements; projections of future commodity movements; carrying capacity of the Great Lakes fleet; capacity of the existing facilities; benefits of alternative plans of improvement; design and cost estimates of additional facilities; and environmental impacts associated with alternative plans of improvement. The recommended plan is for No Action at this time.
