摘要: A panel discussion from inland barge operators on connecting ports to global and domestic trade turned into a much different kind of talk during Kentucky's virtual riverport freight summit August 31.Ken Eriksen of IHS Markit, moderator for the session, spent 25 minutes speaking with Steve Alley, vice president of sales for Ingram Barge Company, based in Nashville, Tenn., about the effects of Hurricane Ida.Ingram has in excess of 4,000 barges and 150 towboats and is the largest dry cargo carrier on the inland waterways. Alley has 38 years of industry experience. He also serves as one of the original members of the Kentucky Water Transportation Advisory Board, appointed by the Kentucky governor.Eriksen was originally to be joined by representatives from American Commercial Barge Line and James Marine, but they were unable to attend because of the situation with Hurricane Ida."When she came ashore and made a little bit of a turn toward the east it created a number of challenges around that," Eriksen said.Specifically, Eriksen said he had heard from Barry Gipson of James Marine, who passed along his regrets for being unable to attend.
