摘要: While barges, railcars and trucks may be frequent sights at the Ports of Indiana's three ports, only one also has oceangoing vessels. Its Burns Harbor site, on Lake Michigan, moves freight both from the Illinois River system to Lake Michigan and on the Great Lakes/St. Lawrence Seaway System. Ports of Indiana's other two ports, Mount Vernon and Jeffersonville, are both on the Ohio River. The Ports of Indiana-Burns Harbor opened in 1970, laying the foundation for future development of the region's steel production and leading to the eventual creation of the other two state ports. The port has celebrated several achievements. In 1995, a $13 million project at Bums Harbor redesigned the breakwater and created a new underwater segmented reef to reduce wave force on the breakwater. In 1999, Federal Marine Terminals/ Fednav moved its Fednav Atlantic Lakes Line (FALLine) division from Chicago to the port.
