Thank you Dick for getting an interesting discussion going. I do not personally think a barge would be a workable solution for either the POTB or Coos Bay, the only thing to do is either bite the bullet (FEMA has ok'ed paying for POTB)and fix it or kill it then pay for the 18k truck's a year extra over the highways. Coos Bay needs to be taken over by the Port of Coos Bay along with state money for the tunnels only way it will work.
