Abstract:This report documents recent efforts to examine the vessel traffic conditions on the Chicago River and to develop recommendations to the City of Chicago, Department of Transportation for establishing a River Management Plan. Interviews were held with numerous stakeholders from city, state and federal governmental personnel as well as individuals representing commercial, private and environmental concerns. Historical data on river usage by industrial and commercial interests as well as private recreational craft (power and human-powered) were examined. There are two general issue areas and four more specific issues that are discussed in this paper. The general issues refer to overall data collection, storage, and analysis and the potential terrorist threats in a post-9/11 era. The specific issue categories are Operations, River Banks, Capital Projects, and Programming.
