New Report Confirms

Fuel Efficiency In

All Transport Modes

John M. Donnelly Jr., chairman of The American Waterways Op- erators, Inc. (AWO), has an- nounced the release of a new com- parative energy efficiency report for freight transportation by truck, railroad, and inland barge.

The AWO chairman said that the study, while confirming with new data previous conclusions on the superior efficiency of barging, finds that "all bulk transporta- tion modes make a significant contribution to the nation's dis- tribution system in a fuel-effi- cient manner, and all are deserv- ing of full recognition as energy savers and energy movers."

The study was commissioned jointly by the AWO and the Wa- ter Transportation Association of

New York, and was done by Sam- uel E. Eastman, lawyer, econo- mist, and former director, Office of Policy Review, U.S. Depart- ment of Transportation.

Mr. Donnelly, addressing the

National Press Club Transporta- tion Table in Washington recent- ly, said, "The vital task of dis- tributing the products of the na- tion's farms and factories is ac- complished with a fraction of the nation's total fuel supply. Trucks, railroads, and water carriers in 1978 consumed less than 3 per- cent of the nation's fuel supply to perform 76 percent of all inter- city freight transportation. Barg- ing alone consumed three-tenths of one percent."
