W a t e r w a y Operator Survey Launched

The Waterway Transportation Information Service is conducting a comprehensive survey of inland waterway operators. The purpose of the survey is to gather basic economic and operating data about the U.S. inland waterways industry.

The data will be used by barge company executives and other industry leaders to develop an accurate and current picture of the industry's size, structure, and operations.

The Waterway Transportation Information Service is operated by the Transportation Center at The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and the National Waterways Foundation at Arlington, Va., under the sponsorship of the Maritime Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation. Summary statistics from the survey will be made available by the information service early in 1986.

In the survey, operators are being asked to provide data about their corporate structure, firm size, employment, assets, expenses, equipment, and traffic. Operators who have not received a survey package may request one by writing to Waterway Transportation Information Service, Transportation Center, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tenn. 37996-0700, or by calling Cheryl Johnson or Michael Bronzizi at (615) 974-5255.
