🔍 Key Concepts

• Lock capacity and safety when mixing commercial barges with pleasure craft • Differences between dry cargo barges (like sand, coal, cement) and liquid cargo barges • Risk factors such as fire, explosion, or hazardous spills in confined lock chambers

💭 Think About

• Which type of barge cargo would create the greatest hazard if there were a leak, spark, or ignition source inside a confined lock? • Are all these cargoes handled the same way with respect to how close other vessels can be, or do special precautions apply to one type in particular? • Think about which cargo type might have extra separation or restriction rules around pleasure craft in narrow or enclosed spaces.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which listed barges normally carry bulk solid (dry) cargo versus flammable liquid cargo • Consider lock procedures regarding proximity of pleasure craft to hazardous or flammable cargoes • Verify which cargo type would most likely require additional safety distance or separate locking rather than maximizing capacity by combining traffic
