Great Lakes Shipping, Trade, and Aquatic Invasive Species Special Report 291 Since Its Opening in 1959, the St transportation research board Great Lakes Shipping, Trade, and Aquatic Invasive Species special report 291 Since its opening in 1959, the St. Lawrence Seaway has provided a route into the Great Lakes not only for trade but also unfortunately for aquatic invasive species (AIS), which have had severe economic and environmental impacts on the region. Prevention measures have been introduced by the governments of Canada and the United States, but reports of newly discovered AIS continue, and only time will tell what impacts these species may have. Pressure special report 291 to solve the problem has even led to proposals that the seaway be closed. At the request of the Great Lakes Protection Fund, the National Research Council assembled a committee of experts to identify and explore options that would both enhance the potential for global trade in the Great Lakes region and eliminate further introductions of AIS from ships transiting the St. Lawrence Seaway. The report concludes that trade should continue on the St. Lawrence Seaway but with a more effective suite of prevention measures that evolves over time in response to lessons learned and new technologies.

On the au- thority of the charter granted to it by the Congress in 1863, the Academy has a mandate that requires it to advise the federal government on scientific and technical matters. Dr. Ralph J. Cicerone is president of the National Academy of Sciences. The National Academy of Engineering was established in 1964, under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences, as a parallel organization of outstanding engineers. It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for advising the federal government. The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meet- ing national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achievements of engineers. Dr. Charles M. Vest is president of the National Academy of Engineering. The Institute of Medicine was established in 1970 by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public. The Institute acts under the re- sponsibility given to the National Academy of Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, on its own initiative, to identify issues of med- ical care, research, and education. Dr. Harvey V. Fineberg is president of the Institute of Medicine. The National Research Council was organized by the National Academy of Sciences in 1916 to associate the broad community of science and technology with the Academy’s purposes of furthering knowledge and advising the federal government. Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the Na- tional Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the scientific and engineering communities.

(a) In General In Parts One and Two of this article the writer discussed the history and background of the Chicago Water Diversion Controversy, the decisions rendered by the United States Supreme Court, the various rulings of the Governmental officials and Departments, the efforts made in Congress and in the Supreme Court to authorize a large diversion, the present status of the problem, and finally the legal questions that were or still are involved. Almost a half century of litigation and dispute has failed to settle permanently this im- portant problem, and the question arises, "What of the future ?". How can this perennial problem be settled once and for all? To attempt to answer this, one must consider not only the rulings of the Court but also the physical and engineering details of the sewage disposal and water supply problems of metropolitan Chicago.

  • Prevent a Catastrophic Great Lakes Oil Spill
    Prevent a Catastrophic Great Lakes Oil Spill To the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Agency for Energy, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Michigan Governor, Michigan Attorney General, and Michigan Pipeline Safety Advisory Board: I am writing to submit my official comment in response to the State of Michigan’s Line 5 final alternatives analysis dated October 26 and released on November 20. I am deeply disappointed in this final analysis. A draft alternatives report released in June was riddled with errors and omissions, and the final report contains most of the same failures. This report fails to meet its overall purpose of “providing the State of Michigan and other interested parties with an independent, comprehensive analysis of alternatives to the existing Straits Pipelines, and the extent to which each alternative promotes the public health, safety, and welfare and protects the public trust resources of the Great Lakes.” It lacks credibility because its author is Dynamic Risk, a firm with ties to Enbridge, the Canadian energy transport company that owns Line 5. Even worse, it absurdly underestimates the impact of a spill and ignores a viable alternative to Line 5 – use of existing infrastructure. An independent expert review in December 2015 documented the practicality of this alternative. Decommissioning Line 5 in the Straits of Mackinac is the only alternative that will prevent an oil spill with catastrophic consequences for the Great Lakes and the State of Michigan. Moreover, this final alternative report affirms that decommissioning is a feasible option with zero risks to the Great Lakes and minimal economic impacts to Michigan customers (e.g., two cents more at the gas pump and roughly 10 to 25 cents more for propane in the Upper Peninsula).

  • The Feasibility of Containerization in the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway System
    The Feasibility of Containerization in The Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway System Nick Edwards Bemidji State University 1 Introduction The use of waterways to transport goods has always been a staple of civilization dating back to some of our earliest days. And throughout history it has always played a pivotal role in our economies and affected the very way in which our civilizations developed. Perhaps one of the world's most important waterways is the Great Lakes that lie directly in the heart of the North American continent and connect the heartland of North America to the Atlantic Ocean. Thus, providing a vital mode of transportation for shipping a variety of products from North America’s heartland to the rest of the world. The Great Lakes are also strategic for the transportation of domestic products, providing a way for producers to move goods from state to state without relying on truck or rail transportation. Around the rest of the world, it is no different as global trade has become an increasingly more important part of our daily lives. This has only become more true with the introduction of containerization, something that has revolutionized the shipping industry and brought about a dramatic change. The result of that is that shipping using the world’s oceans and waterways has become increasingly more important than ever before. Furthermore, the revolution that containerization has brought about has led some to ponder the possibility of introducing container shipping into the Great Lakes. Well, this may be an intriguing possibility as it could bring new found economic advantages, one must first ask what is the true feasibility of introducing containerization into the Great Lakes.

  • Welland Canal‐Lock 3 St. Lawrence Seaway Also Known As Great Lakes Waterway, the St
    Welland Canal‐Lock 3 St. Lawrence Seaway Also known as Great Lakes Waterway, the St. Lawrence Seaway is a system of locks, canals and channels that cross between the United State and Canada. Sea vessels can travel from the Atlantic Ocean through a system of smaller lakes into the great lakes, ending in Lake Superior. The Seaway includes 13 Canadian and 2 U.S. locks. The distance covered by the system is 2,340 miles (3,700 km). This photo program will focus on one of the locks, the Welland Lock Number 3. The information in this program comes from https://www.seaway.dot.gov/about/great‐lakes‐st‐lawrence‐seaway‐system and http://www.welland.library.on.ca/digital/history.htm. Annually, over 200 million net tons (180 million metric tons) of materials pass through the system. They include iron ore, coal, limestone, grain, general cargo, cement, salt and other aggregates. The Seaway is considered one of the most outstanding engineering feats of the 20th century. The Seaway was open to deep draft navigation in 1959. It is an international shipping conduit from the Atlantic Ocean to mid‐America and Canada. The Seaway serves Ontario, Quebec, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, New York and Pennsylvania. Ships from Europe, the Middle East and Africa frequent the Seaway. The history of the Welland Canal and Lock 3 is rooted in the fact that early settlement of Canada lacked roads and trails. Lakes and rivers were the best and in most cases the only mode of travel. The great obstacle was Niagara Falls with its deep gorge that included an elevation difference between Lake Ontario and Lake Erie of 326 feet.
