Port Lauds Coast
Guard's Oil Spill Response Efforts
The Port of New Orleans is at the center of the world’s busiest port complex – Louisiana’s Lower Mississippi River. Its proximity to the American
Midwest via a 14,500-mile inland waterway system, six Class One railroads and the
interstate highway system makes New Orleans the port of choice for the movement of cargoes such as steel, rubber, coffee, containers and manufactured goods. |
