INTRODUCTION
Introduction
General
Legal Authority
Waterborne Commerce of the United States,
WCUS, Part 5 is one of a series of
publications which provides statistics on the
foreign and domestic waterborne commerce
moved on the United States waters. WCUS,
Parts 1-4 present detailed data on the
movements of vessels and commodities at the
ports and harbors and on the waterways and
canals of the United States, and its territories.
WCUS, Part 5 provides a condensation of this
detailed information thereby providing the
decision makers a broad perspective of
commerce served by the U.S. waterways and
ports.
The legal authority for the collection,
compilation and publication of waterborne
commerce statistics by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers is Section 11 of the Rivers and
Harbors Appropriations Act of 1922 (42 Stat.
1043), as amended, and codified in 33 U.S.C.
555 and provides the following:
WCUS, Part 5 provides extensive graphic
and tabular displays of both current waterborne
traffic and historic levels. Statistics are
aggregated by region, state, port and waterway
for comparative purposes.
Beginning with the calendar year 2007
publications, WCUS, Parts 1-4 are provided in
HTML format on the Navigation and Civil Works
Decision Support Center (NDC), formerly the
Navigation Data Center website:
http://
www.navigationdatacenter.us/wcsc/wcsc.htm.
WCUS, Part 5 is available in hardcopy and
in PDF format on the NDC website.
Data on foreign commerce are supplied to
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers by the U.S.
Bureau of the Census, U.S. Customs and
Border Protection, and purchased from JOC
Group Inc., Port Import Export Reporting
Service.
The publication numbers and the
geographical areas covered in WCUS, Parts 1-5
are detailed below:

Owners, agents, masters, and
clerks of vessels and other craft
plying upon the navigable
waters of the United States, and
all individuals and corporations
engaged in transporting their
own goods upon the navigable
waters of the United States,
shall furnish such statements
relative to vessels, passengers,
freight, and tonnage as may be
required by the Secretary of the
Army: Provided, That this
provision shall not apply to
those rafting logs except upon a
direct request upon the owner to
furnish specific information.
Every person or persons
offending against the provisions
of this section shall, for each
and every offense, be liable to a
fine of not more than $5,000 or
imprisonment not exceeding two
months, to be enforced in any
district court of the United
States within whose territorial
jurisdiction such offense may
have been committed. In
addition, the Secretary may
assess a civil penalty of up to
$2,500 per violation, against any
person or entity that fails to
provide
timely,
accurate
statements required to be
submitted pursuant to this
section by the Secretary.
The vessel and commodity movement
information collected and compiled is designed
to meet the data requirements of the
Department of the Army in connection with the
duties assigned by Congress. These data also
provide valuable information for other

INTRODUCTION
governmental departments, commercial and
shipping concerns and others interested in the
U.S. transportation industry.
Domestic Commerce
Contiguous and non-contiguous states and
territories constitute the geographical space
upon which domestic commerce may be
transported. This includes Hawaii, Alaska, the
48 contiguous states, Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands, Guam, American Samoa, Wake Island
and the U.S. Trust Territories.
The waterborne traffic movements are
reported to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers by
all vessel operators of record on ENG Forms
3925 and 3925b (or equivalent) approved by the
Office of Management and Budget under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3510(a)).
The reports are generally submitted on the basis
of individual vessel movements completed. For
movements with cargo, the point of loading and
the point of unloading of each individual
commodity must be delineated. Cargo moved for
the military agencies in commercial vessels is
reported as ordinary commercial cargo; military
cargo movements in Department of Defense
vessels are not collected.
In summarizing the domestic commerce
certain movements are excluded: Cargo carried
on general ferries; coal and petroleum products
loaded from shore facilities directly into bunkers
of vessels for fuel; and insignificant amounts of
government materials (less than 100 tons)
moved on government owned equipment in
support of Corps projects.
Beginning in 1996, fish are excluded from
internal and intraport domestic traffic. The fish
landing data in Tables 4-3 and 5-3 are furnished
by the National Marine Fisheries Service.
In tables containing domestic tonnage totals
for the U.S., the commodity “Waterway
Improvement Materials” is not included.
“Waterway Improvement Materials” tonnage is
included in domestic ports, waterways and
waterway systems. This is the same procedure
that has been used in years prior to 1990;
therefore, the tonnages for years 1990 and later
are comparable to tonnages in years prior to
1990.

NATIONAL SUMMARIES
Foreign Commerce
Foreign commerce is waterborne import,
export and in-transit traffic between the United
States, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands and
any foreign country. These statistics do not
include traffic between any foreign country and
the United States Territories and Possessions
(American Samoa, Guam, North Mariana
Islands and U.S. Outlying Islands).
Beginning with the calendar year 2000
publication, foreign waterborne import, export
and in-transit cargo statistics are derived
primarily from data purchased from JOC Group
Inc., Port Import Export Reporting Service, and
supplemented by data furnished to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers by the U.S. Bureau of
the Census and the U.S. Customs and Border
Protection. Foreign cargo is matched to the
vessel moves to improve geographic specificity.
The Republic of Panama is considered a
foreign country. However, individual vessel
movements with origin and destination at United
States ports traveling via the Panama Canal are
considered domestic traffic. Alaskan crude oil
(origin at Valdez, AK) shipped via the Panama
pipeline (west to east) and destined for gulf and
east coast ports is also considered domestic
commerce.
Import and export shipments for use of the
United States Armed Forces abroad are not
reported to the Waterborne Commerce Statistics
Center (WCSC). Beginning with calendar year
1989 shipments under the military assistance
program of the Department of Defense are
included in the statistics under the appropriate
commodity code. In prior years these cargoes
were given as commodity code 9999.
Commodity Descriptions
The first two digits of the WCSC publication
codes correspond with the Lock Performance
Monitoring System (LPMS) commodity codes.
Both LPMS AND WCSC codes were
standardized to reflect the hierarchical structure
of
the
Standard
International
Trade
Classification (SITC) Revision 3 commodity
codes. SITC, REV. 3 commodity codes conform
to the Harmonized Commodity Description and
Coding System (HS). Using SITC, Rev. 3 allows
direct comparisons with U.S. imports, exports,
and in-transits, as well as, with commodity
movements of other countries.

INTRODUCTION
Tonnage
Ton-Miles
The tonnage figures provided throughout the
WCUS, Parts 1-5 represent short tons (2000
pounds). In WCUS, Part 5 only, where noted,
tonnage figures are rounded to the nearest
million or thousand. If tonnage figures are
rounded to the nearest million, then a zero
represents less than 500,000 tons but more than
zero. If tonnage figures are rounded to the
nearest thousand, then a zero represents less
than 500 tons but more than zero. A dash
means no tonnage. Columns and rows may not
add up exactly to totals and subtotals due to
rounding.
Ton-miles shown in Part 5 are national totals.
For domestic movements, ton-miles equal the
cargo tonnage times the distance between the
point of loading on the water and the point of
unloading on the water. For U.S. - Canada
movements on the Great Lakes, ton-miles equal
the tonnage times the distance between the U.S.
and Canadian locations. For overseas imports
and exports, foreign ton-miles are computed by
multiplying the cargo tonnage by the miles
carried on U.S. waterways and channels.
Ton-miles are rounded to the nearest million
ton-miles.

TERMINOLOGY
Terminology
Types of Traffic
Foreign
Inbound: Includes waterborne imports and inbound in-transit merchandise.
Imports
Overseas: Inbound merchandise originating in foreign countries other than Canada and
arriving by marine vessel for direct U.S. consumption and entries into custom bonded
storage and manufacturing warehouses.
Canadian: Inbound merchandise originating in Canada and arriving by marine vessel for direct
U.S. consumption and entries into custom bonded storage and manufacturing warehouses.
Inbound In-transits: Merchandise coming into the United States by marine vessel from a foreign
country and shipped to a foreign country without having been entered as an import. In-transit
merchandise is treated as inbound when unloaded from a marine vessel.
Outbound: Includes waterborne exports and outbound in-transit merchandise.
Exports
Overseas: Outbound domestic merchandise and re-export of foreign merchandise from a U.S.
foreign trade zone shipped by marine vessel to foreign countries other than Canada.
Canadian: Outbound domestic merchandise and re-export of foreign merchandise from a U.S.
foreign trade zone shipped by marine vessel to Canada.
Outbound In-transits: Merchandise coming into the United States from a foreign country and
shipped by marine vessel to a foreign country without having been entered as an import.
In-transit merchandise is treated as outbound when loaded onto a marine vessel.
Domestic
Coastwise: Domestic traffic receiving a carriage over the ocean, or the Gulf of Mexico, (e.g. New
Orleans to Baltimore, New York to Puerto Rico, San Francisco to Hawaii, Alaska to Hawaii).
Traffic between Great Lakes ports and seacoast ports, when having a carriage over the ocean, is
also termed Coastwise.
Lakewise: Waterborne traffic between the United States ports on the Great Lakes System. The
Great Lakes System is treated as a separate waterway system rather than as a part of the inland
waterway system. In comparing historical data for the Great Lakes System, one should note that
prior to calendar year 1990, marine products, sand and gravel being moved from the Great Lakes
to Great Lake destinations were classified as local traffic. From 1990 on, these activities are
classified as lakewise traffic.
Internal: Vessel movements (origin and destination) which take place solely on inland waterways.
An inland waterway is one geographically located within the boundaries of the contiguous 48
states or within the boundaries of the State of Alaska.
The term “internal traffic” is also applied to these vessel movements: those which involve
carriage on both inland waterways and the Great Lakes; those occurring between offshore areas
and inland waterways (e.g., oil rig supplies and fish); and those taking place within Delaware Bay,
Chesapeake Bay, Puget Sound, and the San Francisco Bay, which are considered internal
bodies of water rather than arms of the ocean.

TERMINOLOGY
Intraport: Movement of freight within the confines of a port whether the port has one or several
arms or
channels included in the port definition. This traffic type will not include car-ferries and general
ferries moving within a port.
Through: Movements transiting a waterway, or stretch thereof, as defined in the project description
of individual tables, and having origins and destinations outside of the defined area.
Intra-waterway: Shipments and receipts within the limits of a river, waterway or canal. This traffic
will not include car-ferries and general ferries moving within a waterway or Corps project.
Intra-territory: Traffic between ports in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, which are considered a
single unit.
Traffic Direction
Waterways
Upbound: Traffic that moves in an upstream direction. For waterways without a characteristic
monodirectional flow (e.g. the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway), “upbound” means in a northerly or
easterly direction.
Downbound: Traffic that moves in a downstream direction. For waterways without a characteristic
monodirectional flow, “downbound” means in a southerly or westwardly direction.
Inbound: Traffic moving from one waterway into another where the destination is on the subject
waterway.
Outbound: Traffic moving from one waterway into another where the origin is on the subject
waterway.
Ports
Receipts: Traffic moving from one location to another where the destination is within the limits of the
subject port.
Shipments: Traffic moving from one location to another where the origin is within the limits of the
subject port.
Commodity Descriptions: The first two digits of the Waterborne Commerce Statistics Center (WCSC)
publication codes correspond with the Lock Performance Monitoring System, (LPMS), commodity
codes. Both LPMS and WCSC codes were standardized to reflect the hierarchical structure of
the Standard International Trade Classification (SITC) Revision 3 commodity codes. SITC, Rev.
3 commodity codes conform to the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS).
Using SITC, Rev. 3 allows direct comparisons with U.S. imports and exports, as well as with
commodity movements of other countries.
Tons: The tonnage figures provided throughout the Waterborne Commerce of the United States, WCUS,
Parts 1-5 represent short tons (2000 pounds).
In WCUS, Part 5 only, where noted, tonnage figures are rounded to the nearest million or
thousand. If tonnage figures are rounded to the nearest million, then a zero reprsents less than
500,000 tons, but more than zero. If tonnage figures are rounded to the nearest thousand, then a
zero reprsents less than 500 tons, but more than zero.A dash means no tonnage.Columns and
rows may not add up exactly to totals and subtotals due to rounding.
Ton-miles: Ton-miles in Part 5 are national totals. Water carriage ton-miles were first compiled and
published in calendar year 1962. The distances used are statute miles.

TERMINOLOGY
Domestic ton-miles are calculated by multiplying the tons of commerce being moved by the
number of miles actually moved on the water from the point of loading onto the vessel to the point
of unloading off of the vessel. Coastwise ton-miles includes the distance across open ocean and
the Gulf of Mexico.
For rivers, inland waterways and coastal routes the distances were computed from waterway
survey maps , NOAA charts and records of the Corps of Engineers.
For the Great Lakes system the ton-miles are computed for movements of cargo west of the
international boundary of St. Regis, Quebec, Canada to head of Lake Superior at Duluth, MN and
Superior, WI.
For lakewise domestic movements, ton-miles equal the cargo tonnage times the distance
between the U.S. Great Lakes ports.
For Canadian imports and exports, and in-transits across the Great Lakes foreign ton-miles are
computed as the tonnage times the distance between the U.S. and Canadian ports.
For overseas imports and exports, and in-transits foreign ton-miles are computed by multiplying
the cargo tonnage by the miles carried on U.S. waterways and channels. Distances across the
oceans are not included in the computation of the overseas foreign ton-miles.
Ton-miles are rounded to the nearest million.
Trip Ton-miles: Trip ton-miles is a measure of a single waterway’s contribution to the whole waterway
system. Trip ton-miles are computed by identifying every commercial cargo-carrying vessel that
has plied a particular inland waterway and summing the products of the tons times the total
trip-miles for each vessel trip. “Trip-miles” is the total distance from origin (loading) to destination
(unloading). For example, a barge carrying 1,200 tons of wheat might only travel 30 miles on the
Illinois River but its total trip to New Orleans might be 1,000 miles. This trip would contribute
1,200,000 trip ton-miles to the Illinois River. Small rivers often contribute to the traffic on larger
rivers. Published trip ton-miles do not include coastal and Great Lakes vessel movements.
Trans-Shipments: Ports and offshore anchorages where cargo is moved from one vessel to another.
These are: St. Lucia, Virgin Islands; Heald Bank off the Louisiana and Texas coasts; Chirqui
Grande, Panama; Puerto Armuelles, Panama; and Hondo Platform-Pacific Ocean.

* Based on distance transported on Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River to International Boundary at St. Regis, Quebec, Canada
** Based on distance transported on United States Waterways from entrance channels to ports and waterways.
*** Excludes intra-territory traffic for which ton-miles were not compiled.
+ An error in the routing network caused the coastal port foreign ton-mile totals to be slightly inflated for calendar years
1990-1993. The corrections are reflected in these revised totals. Ton-miles for individual ports were not affected.
++ Beginning in 1996, fish was excluded.
+++ “Average Haul” is the average distance a ton of cargo travels by water. It is computed by dividing the number of
ton-miles by the number of tons.

*** Excludes intra-territory traffic for which ton-miles were not compiled.
+ An error in the routing network caused the coastal port foreign ton-mile totals to be slightly inflated for calendar years
1990-1993. The corrections are reflected in these revised totals. Ton-miles for individual ports were not affected.
+++ “Average Haul” is the average distance a ton of cargo travels by water. It is computed by dividing the number of
ton-miles by the number of tons.
