COLUMBIA COASTAL EXPANDS PROJECT CARGO SERVICE TO GULF

COLUMBIA COASTAL EXPANDS PROJECT CARGO SERVICE TO GULF    Columbia Coastal Transport LLC has extended its project cargo operations to the U.S. Gulf region.
   The company has moved a barge called the 'Columbia Savannah' into Houston.
   Project cargo moves “continue to be a logical extension of our container barge services, since we can easily accommodate breakbulk, outsized and overweight cargoes on our barge decks,” said Bruce A. Fenimore, president of Columbia Coastal Transport.
   Columbia Coastal’s container barges call at Boston; Portland, Maine; New York-New Jersey, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Wilmington, N.C., Charleston; Savannah, Ga.; Jacksonville, Port Everglades and Miami, Fla.; Houston; New Orleans; and Freeport, in the Bahamas.
   The Liberty Corner, N.J.-based company deploys 14 U.S.-flag container barges in regularly scheduled feeder services to and from major ports on the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf coasts.
