SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Shipper Interview for Gulf Intracoastal Waterway: Brazos River Flood Gates and Colorado River Locks Study; Form Number; OMB Control Number 0710-GIWW.
Needs and Uses: Information from the questionnaire is needed to formulate and evaluate alternative water resources development plans in accordance with the Principles and Guidelines for Water Related Land Resources Implementation Studies, promulgated by the U.S. Water Resources Council, 1983, which specifically identifies interviews with shippers, carriers and port officials as well as commodity consultants and experts to; identify commodity types, study area, commodity flow, estimate transportation cost and forecast waterway use.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District, (SWG) seeks to conduct a survey of commercial shipping companies that use the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) to transport commodities along the Texas Coast. The area includes the crossings of the Brazos River and Colorado River in Texas. SWG will incorporate survey information into a General Investigation Feasibility Study Update of long term solutions to shoaling and allisions near the intersections of the GIWW and the Brazos and Colorado rivers that could result in a potential loss of the navigation pool at the flood gates and locks. As part of the study, we are surveying shippers that use the GIWW to help us better understand the potential economic effects of a long-term disruption in navigation through the area. Part of the study requires an examination of how shippers would respond if navigation crossing the Brazos River and Colorado River was restricted for an extended period, or if the flood gates and locks are widened. The survey will provide information to determine if tentative project costs would be justified by reducing risks of losing the navigation pool along the GIWW.
