This book was released on with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No less authority than Hiram Chittenden wrote this marvelous history of the early days of one of America's most important waterways. A West Point engineer, namesake of the Hiram Chittenden locks in Seattle, Chittenden was a respected historian of early western America. There was no railroad system in the United States whose importance to its tributary country was relatively greater than was that of the Missouri River to the trans-Mississippi territory in the first seventy-five years of the nineteenth century. Through the earliest days of navigation on the great Missouri, through its use in the Civil War, the Indian Wars, Custer's Last Stand, and its eventual demise as a major highway due to the development of the railroads, this history tells of an America that depended on rivers for expansion. Though Grant Marsh captained the steamer Far West, which took the wounded Little Bighorn survivors to Ft. Lincoln, La Barge also saw service as a captain on Custer's Yellowstone Expedition. The life of Joseph La Barge exemplifies the 19th century life of the river. The author met La Barge shortly before his death and found him to be an extraordinary wealth of information about early steamboat travel, as La Barge had owned and operated boats on the river for many years. He was on the first boat that went to the far upper river, and he made the last through voyage from St. Louis to Fort Benton. For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.

This book was released on 2016-11-18 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers paper navigational chart books are published to benefit both the professional and recreational maritime community. These chart books are spiral bound with sturdy covers and are designed for heavy service on any bridge. Mariners will find not only navigational charts within the pages of this chart book, but critical navigational safety information such as information pertaining to buoys, vertical clearances under bridges, warning to pleasure boaters and fisherman to include restricted and danger area boundaries; locks and dams; signals, lockage of tows; moorings and more. Well defined chart legends, and multiple indices make this chart book more than a simple navigational tool. The U.S Coast Guard requires that commercial vessels operating in the waters represented within the pages of this chart book maintain on-board "navigation charts or maps appropriate to the area of operation..." (46 CFR Subchapter M). This chart book fulfills that requirement. However, it is incumbent on mariners to manually update these products and U.S. Coast Guard Notice to Mariners for changes and notices impacting these waters. Mariners, boaters, fisherman, tourist cruises, navies and coast guard personnel and anyone who intends to operate marine vessels in the specified areas in the book will find this a vital navigational reference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1988, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began an investigation of the benefits and costs of extending several locks on the lower portion of the Upper Mississippi River-Illinois Waterway (UMR-IWW) in order to relieve increasing waterway congestion, particularly for grain moving to New Orleans for export. With passage of the Flood Control Act of 1936, Congress required that the Corps conduct a benefit-cost analysis as part of its water resources project planning; Congress will fund water resources projects only if a project's benefits exceed its costs. As economic analysis generally, and benefit-cost analysis in particular, has become more sophisticated, and as environmental and social considerations and analysis have become more important, Corps planning studies have grown in size and complexity. The difficulty in commensurating market and nonmarket costs and benefits also presents the Corps with a significant challenge. The Corps' analysis of the UMR-IWW has extended over a decade, has cost roughly $50 million, and has involved consultations with other federal agencies, state conservation agencies, and local citizens. The analysis has included many consultants and has produced dozens of reports. In February 2000, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) requested that the National Academies review the Corps' final feasibility report. After discussions and negotiations with DOD, in April 2000 the National Academies launched this review and appointed an expert committee to carry it out.
