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, and 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.
