🔍 Key Concepts

• Mississippi River ship channel between Baton Rouge and New Orleans • Typical project depth and width used for deep‑draft commercial traffic on major U.S. rivers • Difference between common 30‑ft, 40‑ft, and 45‑ft channels in U.S. port approaches

💭 Think About

• Think about what size ships regularly call at Baton Rouge and New Orleans. What minimum depth would they reasonably need? • Compare the listed depths: which one is normally associated with barge-only rivers, and which with deep‑draft ocean‑going ships? • Among the widths given, which is most typical for a heavily used, deep‑draft, one‑way or controlled two‑way traffic channel on a large river like the lower Mississippi?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which project depth is associated with the lower Mississippi River deep‑draft channel (not the Intracoastal Waterway). • Make sure the channel width you choose matches a major commercial deep‑draft route, not a small harbor or shallow river channel. • Eliminate any option that seems too shallow for ocean‑going ships regularly trading to New Orleans.
