Description According to a newly released U.S. Army Corps of Engineer's report, seaports are seeing a steady rise in waterborne cargo volumes. The 2014 freight tonnages have increased by 3.1 percent over 2013's totals. Based on the report, the American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA) said that while volume of goods moving through U.S. ports in 2014 boosted the nation's economy, it placed added burden on America's aging and deficient freight transportation network.
