NOTES: Waterway mileages were determined by including the
length of channels 1) with a controlling draft of nine feet or greater, 2) with
commercial cargo traffic reported for 1998 and 1999, but 3) were not offshore
(i.e., channels in coastal areas included only the miles from the entrance channel
inward). Channels within major bays are included (e.g., Chesapeake Bay, San
Francisco Bay, Puget Sound, Long Island Sound, major sounds and straits in southeastern
Alaska). Channels in the Great Lakes are not included, but waterways connecting
lakes and the St. Lawrence Seaway inside the United States are included.
