| 摘要： | After two difficult years, operations on the inland waterways have moved toward normality over the past year. Cargo shipments have rebounded, Covid protocols have been integrated more smoothly into daily operations, and major infusions of federal funds for lock and dam improvements coupled with new opportunities in the offshore wind sector have given tug and barge operators hope for the future. Yet the pandemic has taken its toll, as mariners reported more stress, anxiety and depression, and the industry faced labor shortages and supply chain disruptions. Shifts in the energy market also forced some operators to reassess coal transport, attacks against the Jones Act revved up, and the inland barge market has most recently begun to feel the effects of the ongoing war in the Ukraine. |
