Great-Lakes-StAINT-Lawrence Seaway

Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway: clean shipping and energy options

The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway is a vital North American economic and environmental resource, transporting more than 135.7 million tonnes (Mt) of cargo with a value of US$26.1 billion in 2022 across a 2,300 miles deep-draft inland navigation system.
