Description
Barge going under U.S. Grant Bridge on Ohio River, near Portsmouth, Ohio overlooking Kentucky.The Ohio River is the largest tributary, by volume, of the Mississippi River. It is approximately 981 miles long and located in the Eastern United States. Since the early days of the pioneers, it has served as a major commercial transportation route. Barges, such the one in the photograph, are found everyday transporting goods such as coal on the Ohio River. The Ohio River Basin is a major coal producing and power generating area for the Appalachian Region. Utilities like the advantage of the transportation savings provided by these barges the basin�s waterways. Most of the utility coal moving by barge on the Ohio River basin did not originate along the Ohio River. Some of this coal is actually mined in the western United States and moved by rail to docks on the Ohio River, where it�s loaded into barges to complete the trip to power plants.
