Introduction Objective: Find a cost effective, emission friendly, and realistic solution to transporting freight 2

Transportation Infrastructure Condition and Capacity Pennsylvania’s infrastructure is one of the worst in the nation, with bridges, inland waterways, and roads all classified as Ds. 3 PA has a total of 41,000 miles of state highways and 79,000 local roads, 44% oh which are rated fair to poor Pa has the third highest number bridges in the country and the highest number of structurally deficient bridges, about 23%. Reconstruction has began!! PA inland waterway system given an overall grade of D+, only 18% of the bridges were “satisfactory” rating. Pittsburgh was the busiest port in the nation in 2012!!

Standard Capacity for Alternate Transportation Modes The typical cargo ship capacity ranges from 1,500 tons for a single barge and 2,250 tons for a 15 barge tow. An average transport truck may hold up to 26 tons, and the capacity of trains ranges from 100 tons for a single car to 10,500 tons for an 100 car unit. 4

Transportation Costs and Concept of Operations (ConOps) Barges and Railroads have had decreases in cost or are already low cost, making them more cost efficient than trucks! 5 MethodCost per MileEvaluations Truck$1.68Costs are increasing yearly, as well as road congestion and negative emission effects Barge$0.97Least costly, but do produce environmental issues due to emissions Railroad$0.04Cost per mile is drastically decreasing (43% less in last 30 years)

EPA Diesel Emission Standards 6

Diesel Engine Exhaust Emissions (DEEE) 7

Locomotive Fleet Upgrade Upgrade from Tier 2 to TIER 4!!!!!! Get 2 barges for MAXIMUM CAPACITY!!! Sell the Tier 2 locomotives 8

Summary We chose an environmental friendly solution that will hold for a long time Sell Tier 2 Buy Tier 4 Get 2 barges (Capacity) Get money ($$$) 9

Closing Thanks for an awesome class Prof. B!!!!!!!!!!!! 10
