FRAMEWORK PLAN FOR OHIO BASIN NAVIGATION TO 2020

To meet future needs, a framework plan and development program is formulated as a broad guide to the best use of navigation resources. Demand for navigation on the existing system is estimated for 1980, 2000, 2020, based generally on indices of projected industrial and household demand in base subareas for five commodity groups representing the bulk of current waterborne commerce. Capabilities of going program facilities to serve the demand is evaluated. A framework plan for further development of navigation resources is defined.
