Cummins Marine safety study prepared for MarAd on transporting bulk hazardous sub- stances found that barge spills oc- cur much less often than spills from either tank trucks or tank cars.

While there is no singular reason for this, many factors contribute, such as the fewer number of modal units required to transport tonnage, and design features such as double hulls, bolted flanges and automatic shutdowns.

Of course OPA '90 and its ramifi- cations will have a big role in the design and operation of inland tank barges.

The legislation requires the phase-out of single-hull tank ves- sels carrying oil in bulk and prohib- its operation of tank vessels less than 5,000-gt by January 1, 2015.

The industry, aware of the need to protect the environment, has nev- ertheless been moving in this direc- tion.

Over the last 10 years (1984 to 1993), of the 271 inland tank barges built, only one was of single hull construction according to a study cited in the report.

Pollution

A U.S. Army Corps of Engineers study cited in the report determined that com mercial marine navigation has a relatively minor effect on air pollution.

The study analyzed navigation emissions in the St. Louis region, a big hub for barge activity, showing that waterway transportation is more "environmentally friendly^ in terms of emissions as compared to other transportation modes (see Fig- ure 2 on page 68).

In a study by the Environmental

Protection Agency, comparing modes of transportation and the emissions each produces moving a ton of cargo 1,000 miles, it was again concluded that waterway transpor- tation was the most favorable (see

Figure 3 below).

Tri-Star Marine of Se- attle delivered a 4,000-hp tractor tug, Tioga, to Coos

Tri-Star, with engineer- ing services by Jensen

Maritime Consultants.

The vessel has a pair ui

Caterpillar 3516 diesels providing 4,000 hp, giving the tug an estimated bollard pull rating of 106,000 lbs. The engines power two

Ulstein 165H Z-Drive units with 87- in. bronze propellers, giving the

Tioga a speed in excess of 13 knots.

Tioga is equipped with two Cater- pillar 3306 diesels for electrical power; McElroy bow winch; two ra- dars and GPS system from Furuno; gyrocompass and autopilot from

Sperry; and Ritchie magnetic com- pass. 70 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
