FROM THE CEO

Lock failure shows vulnerability of inland waterways system

Rich Cooper

Chief Executive Officer, Ports of Indiana

Before the gate failure, the Markland Lock and Dam moved more than 55 million tons of cargo annually.

A sonar image of the lock gate at the bottom of the Ohio River.

4 · Fall 2009 PORTSIDE MAGAZINE

On Sunday, Sept. 27, Markland Locks and Dam on the Ohio River suffered a major gate failure. This couldn’t have come at a worse time with harvest approaching.

Taking the lock out of commission a few weeks before its busiest time of year during an already harsh economic environment puts shippers in a tough spot. It is also an indicator of a bigger problem. Our inland river system is in need of infrastructure maintenance and repairs before more failures like this one disrupt our H2O highway.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released the Ohio River Mainstem System Study in 2006, resulting in a plan to modernize and upgrade the Ohio River lock system gradually.

Repairs to each lock were prioritized by need so repairs could be made proactively. One part of this massive study found that preventative maintenance is ultimately less expensive – something that shouldn’t come as a surprise to any of us.The Corps looked at the results of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on the locks. Unscheduled maintenance and repairs, such as this emergency situation, are more costly to government, industry and even consumers.

One of the situations studied was the 2004 McAlpine Lock and Dam closure. Advanced lock deterioration required a two-week repair. This was in the middle of an ongoing lock construction project, so the repairs completely closed down the Ohio River near Louisville, Ky. The costs exceeded $9 million, but didn’t stop there. The Waterways Council looked into things a bit deeper by surveying companies affected by the closure. More than 70 percent were negatively impacted. The results were lost sales, production cutbacks, delay costs and employee layoffs. And in this case, the repairs were even completed ahead of schedule. The slowed economy already creates a difficult work environment but setbacks on the river can really add to the difficulty.

The Markland lock gates were already scheduled to be replaced in 2011 but the delivery date for new gates has since been moved up to March of 2010. In the meantime, the failed gates are undergoing repair and barge transportation is relegated to the auxiliary 600-foot chamber – roughly half the size of the main chamber. Delays are frequent and extra care must be taken not to damage the smaller chamber. If the auxiliary chamber experiences problems while the main chamber is under repair, the costs to shippers could be devastating.

This was just one lock out of many that are at risk. According to the Corps, 25 percent of locks on the Ohio River have already been around longer than their design life. Within the next 10 years, the number of outdated locks jumps to 50 percent. More than half of the nation’s 240 locks are over 50 years old. The entire system is in dire need of additional funding.

The inland waterways system moves about 600 million tons of cargo annually, nearly double the tonnage moving through the Panama Canal. About one third of the inland waterways cargo travels on the Ohio River. While highways are becoming increasingly congested, the inland waterways have plenty of remaining capacity.

Consider that each 15-barge tow moves the same amount of cargo as 900 trucks.

The system is one of this country’s most under-utilized assets. To remain a viable and productive asset, it requires maintenance just like our highways do. The stakeholders of the inland waterways system do have a voice and should communicate the importance of maintaining our inland waterways to our state and federal leaders.

Let’s hope this incident is not the beginning of more critical infrastructure failures that might cripple our inland river system.

2009 SUMMIT AND DIRECTORY SHOWCASE INDIANA’S LOGISTICS POWER State ranks in top 10 for over 30 categories of freight logistics The Hoosier state ranks in the top 10 in 33 logistics categories according to the 2009 Indiana Logistics Directory which was unveiled at the state’s September logistics summit.

Nearly half of Indiana’s rankings are in the top five and only three other states can claim more than 30 top 10 rankings in these categories.

“The numbers give solid evidence to what most of us already know,” said Ports of Indiana CEO Rich Cooper. “Indiana is clearly a logistics leader.”

The Indiana Logistics Summit and the Indiana Logistics Directory are a part of an initiative by the Ports of Indiana and its partners to increase awareness of the state’s logistics advantages on a statewide, regional and national level. The summit began in 2003 and the directory was first published the following year.

The 2009 summit was again co-hosted by the Ports of Indiana and Purdue University. Now in its seventh year, the event brings together top officials from business, academia and government to discuss how to make Indiana’s transportation, distribution and logistics businesses more competitive and to provide firsthand accounts of how they see the state moving forward in the supply-chain sector.

The 2009 event featured industry outlooks from all modes of transportation as well as presentations by Indiana Secretary of Commerce Mitch Roob and keynote speaker Ron Foxcroft, a logistics entrepreneur, an NCAA basketball referee and the inventor, manufacturer and worldwide distributor of the most popular whistle on the planet. Speakers addressed the economic downturn head-on with topics like unlocking supply chain productivity and logistics leadership in a tough economy.

products, each with varying technologies, protection measures and lifecycles made by 21 manufacturing sites and 92 contract manufacturers.

“In a downturn, it’s easy to forget about the basics in supply chain processes and all of a sudden stop doing them,” said Bohl.

“It doesn’t take much to lose credibility, but it does take a heck of a lot to get it back.”

Another popular session covered the importance of infrastructure to logistics. Based around a recent study of agriculture logistics, the session looked at how closing one small town bridge can influence a region’s economy.

“For Indiana agriculture, transportation infrastructure is vitally important to move our grains and products to market,” said Emily Otto-Tice, director of grain marketing with the Indiana Soybean Alliance and the Indiana Corn Marketing Council. “It also gives us competitive advantage in the global marketplace. We must be able to maintain and upgrade our transportation infrastructure, which includes roads, rail and waterways, to meet the world’s growing demand for food, feed and fiber.”

The summit also introduced a new service for supply-chain professionals to get their resume in front of potential employers in an online searchable database available at www.indianalogistics.com.

“Past summits have proven to provide a fertile networking environment,” Cooper said. “That history coupled with recent inquiries from those wishing to attend this year’s event prompted us to create this service. Hopefully this will help put together qualified logistics professionals with companies looking for good employees.”

The summit attracted participants from 10 states and 56 different cities – the largest portion from Indianapolis (45 percent).

Approximately 67 percent of attendees came from the business sector, while government and university officials each represented about 12 percent and economic development leaders made up 9 percent. The most well-represented sectors of private industry were: ports, logistics, consulting, engineering, railroad, trucking, agricultural, manufacturing, financial, package delivery, legal, retail, real estate, media, security, staffing, packaging and barge shipping. Plans are underway for the eighth annual Indiana Logistics Summit to be held in the fall of 2010.

The 2009 Indiana Logistics Directory features perspectives from logistics experts and more than 2,000 business listings in 38 logistics-related categories. Preparations for the 2010 edition are underway now.

Visit www.indianalogistics.com for more information and to download or order a copy of the 2009 edition.

Some highlights from the Indiana Logistics Directory include: • A complete list of Indiana’s rankings in 33 logistics categories generated from the most recent reports by the Association of American Railroads, Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Highway Administration, Texas Transportation Institute, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics, U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Department of Commerce and U.S. Department of Transportation.

• A state for all modes: Indiana ranked 1st for number of pass-though interstates, 3rd in number of freight railroads, 7th in domestic waterborne shipping and is one of only eight states with multiple airports in the top 50 for air cargo – the Indianapolis airport comes in 6th ahead of JFK and O’Hare, and Fort Wayne is ranked 32nd.

Indianapolis is also home to the world’s second largest FedEx air hub, which recently completed a $300 million expansion.

• Infrastructure for miles and miles…: Indiana ranks 5th in local rail miles, 9th in total rail miles, 12th in interstate miles and has 400 miles of navigable waterways on the Ohio River and Lake Michigan.

• Home of the logistics experts: Indiana ranks 3rd in freight railroads, 6th in largest airports, 10th in trucking companies and has more than 250,000 Hoosiers employed by logistics firms with another 75,000 working in logistics jobs at manufacturing companies. For logistics employment, Indiana ranks 8th in trucking, 9th in freight rail and 12th in transportation/ warehousing.

Speakers addressed the economic downturn head-on with topics like unlocking supply chain productivity and logistics leadership in a tough economy.

Eli Lilly & Co.’s Director of Supply Chain Ron Bohl provided an inside look at the company’s complex global supply chain. Lilly must manage 420 dosage formulations in human and animal health 6 · Fall 2009 PORTSIDE MAGAZINE

products, each with varying technologies, protection measures and lifecycles made by 21 manufacturing sites and 92 contract manufacturers.

“In a downturn, it’s easy to forget about the basics in supply chain processes and all of a sudden stop doing them,” said Bohl.

“It doesn’t take much to lose credibility, but it does take a heck of a lot to get it back.”

Another popular session covered the importance of infrastructure to logistics. Based around a recent study of agriculture logistics, the session looked at how closing one small town bridge can influence a region’s economy.

“For Indiana agriculture, transportation infrastructure is vitally important to move our grains and products to market,” said Emily Otto-Tice, director of grain marketing with the Indiana Soybean Alliance and the Indiana Corn Marketing Council. “It also gives us competitive advantage in the global marketplace. We must be able to maintain and upgrade our transportation infrastructure, which includes roads, rail and waterways, to meet the world’s growing demand for food, feed and fiber.”

The summit also introduced a new service for supply-chain professionals to get their resume in front of potential employers in an online searchable database available at www.indianalogistics.com.

“Past summits have proven to provide a fertile networking environment,” Cooper said. “That history coupled with recent inquiries from those wishing to attend this year’s event prompted us to create this service. Hopefully this will help put together qualified logistics professionals with companies looking for good employees.”

The summit attracted participants from 10 states and 56 different cities – the largest portion from Indianapolis (45 percent).

Approximately 67 percent of attendees came from the business sector, while government and university officials each represented about 12 percent and economic development leaders made up 9 percent. The most well-represented sectors of private industry were: ports, logistics, consulting, engineering, railroad, trucking, agricultural, manufacturing, financial, package delivery, legal, retail, real estate, media, security, staffing, packaging and barge shipping. Plans are underway for the eighth annual Indiana Logistics Summit to be held in the fall of 2010.

Commission receives special briefing on Corps lock repairs and river shipments at Jeffersonville meeting Proposed streamlined FTZ process, warehouse repairs approved for ports JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. – The Ports of Indiana commission heard updates on river shipping and the Markland Locks and Dam repairs at its Oct. 22 meeting in Jeffersonville City Hall. The commission also approved a new Foreign-Trade Zone framework and awarded funds for warehouse repairs at Burns Harbor.

Eugene Dowell, operations manager for locks and dams with the Louisville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, reported that the broken lock gate had been retrieved from the river bottom and was in the process of being repaired, but no timetable has yet been established for getting the main lock working again.

New gates were scheduled to be installed in 2011, but that construction process has been accelerated by nine months.

Matt Smolek, the new port director at the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville, made a presentation to the commission about the economics of the inland waterways system, as well as the environmental and safety benefits of waterborne transportation.

In Ports of Indiana business, the commission approved the submittal of an “Alternative Site Framework” application for Foreign-Trade Zone #152 at the Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor. This new designation, recently created by the U.S. Foreign-Trade Zones board, allows zone grantees, such as the Ports of Indiana, to streamline the application process for companies applying for FTZ designation.

The commission also awarded $56,604 to Larson Danielson Construction Co. of LaPorte, Ind., for roof repairs to the dry bulk warehouse building at the Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor. The project will repair steel roof panels that are showing signs of corrosion.

Making lime “green” Carmeuse Lime & Stone leads efforts to reduce green house gases

By Pedro A. Maiz, Corporate Process Engineer Carmeuse Lime & Stone

The lime industry, like many others, generates green house gases.

But working to reduce those emissions and be environmentally responsible has been part of the Carmeuse culture for years. The company has committed to reduce its energy usage 9 percent by 2012, and a large percentage of Carmeuse’s products are also used to better the environment in other industries, such as flue gas desulphurization for power plants or removing contaminants in water treatment.

In September, the EPA issued new regulations that require many industries to start tracking and reporting green house gas emissions.

Carmeuse is ahead of the game since it has been voluntarily tracking CO2 emissions since 2002.

In order to further reduce emissions, Carmeuse has focused on reducing fossil fuel consumption by using more alternative fuels and making processes more efficient. This requires everyone in the company to be involved and, in many cases, new capital has been invested to make processes more fuel efficient. Carmeuse’s environmental initiatives include: · Alternative fuels that reduce waste going into landfills · Switching processes to natural gas which emits less CO2 than typical fossil fuels

Carmeuse Lime & Stone provides high-quality lime, limestone and industrial sand products for diverse applications in steel manufacturing, utilities, construction, water/waste treatments and other industries throughout the U.S. and Canada. It has a network of 35 plants, including one at the Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor. www.carmeuse.com

The lime industry will not be able to completely eliminate green house gases but Carmeuse is taking responsibility and putting great efforts to reduce them.

Another way that Carmeuse has taken environmental responsibility is by creating a team to inform employees about green house gases. The training focuses on reducing emissions at work and home. Carmeuse believes that everyone should be informed about how their actions impact the environment and the future.

The culture of the company has always held environmental concerns and safety as its highest priorities.

Port handles 220-ton cyclotron for cancer treatment center

Cimbar Perfomance Minerals joins Mount Vernon port

In September, a 220-ton cancer-fighting cyclotron made its way from Belgium to Warrenville, Ill., by way of the Port of IndianaBurns Harbor. Currently, there are only six facilities in the nation using this type of proton therapy equipment.

Measuring 8-feet-high and 18-foot in diameter, the cyclotron traveled from Antwerp to the port on a cargo ship operated by Fednav. The port regularly handles unique project cargoes with mobile cranes that have 185-ton lift capacity. The cyclotron was moved in two pieces on 19-axle, 180-foot-long trailers and traveled at a top speed of 40 mph for the 130-mile trip to Illinois.

The cyclotron uses proton therapy for cancer treatment as an alternative to traditional radiation. With traditional radiation, healthy tissue near the cancer can be damaged. Proton therapy can be much more specific in delivering treatment. Not only can this beam of treatment be adjusted for a specific depth, it also can be shaped to conform to a tumor’s distinct size and shape, minimizing damage to healthy cells.

The cyclotron will be part of the new Central DuPage Hospital Proton Therapy Center, just outside of Naperville, Ill. A partnership between the hospital and ProCure Treatment Centers, the 60,000-square-foot facility is set to open in the spring and the cyclotron should be treating patients by early 2011. The new cancer facility will be capable of treating 1,500 patients a year.

The largest producer of barium sulfate products in the world, Cimbar Performance Minerals, has joined the family of businesses at the Port of Indiana-Mount Vernon. In October, the company acquired previous port tenant Barretts Minerals Inc.’s multi-mineral processing plant and all associated business operations.

In addition to barium sulfate products, used in the industrial, pharmaceutical and paint industries, Cimbar produces magnesium hydroxide, calcium carbonate, iron oxide and other industrial minerals. With this acquisition, Cimbar has added talc and new calcium carbonate product lines, including Barretts Minerals’ trademarked Ultratalc®, a highly pure form of talc used in food, pharmaceuticals and body powders, as well as Microtuff® and Microtalc®, both used in automotive and appliance parts. According to company officials, no products will be discontinued at this facility but new products from the Cimbar line will be added to production with emphasis on the talc lines. The port location will join Cimbar’s other U.S. production facilities located in Postosi, Mo., Chatsworth, Ga., Houston, Texas, and Cartersville, Ga., also home to the corporate headquarters.

With the recent acquisition, Paul Householder was named plant manager of Cimbar Performance Minerals. A native of Reed, Ky., he started at Barretts Minerals in 2003 in automation controls.

Most recently, Householder was Barretts’ maintenance manager.

In January, the U.S. Foreign-Trade Zones Board introduced a new designation available to grantee’s, such as the Ports of Indiana. The “Alternative Site Framework” (ASF) designation makes the application for expansion of FTZ sites much easier.

As you may know, foreign-trade zones are restricted-access areas that are considered outside of U.S. Customs and Border Patrol territory.

Companies within FTZ sites may be entitled to reduce or delay the payment of customs duties on foreign products brought into a zone, thus making the company more cost-competitive with overseas facilities.

As grantee for three FTZs – #152, #170 and #177 – Ports of Indiana will have greater flexibility in adding new companies to each of its zones using the ASF. Once an ASF application is approved, companies within the multi-county service area may take advantage of the ASF designation. Previously, this was regulated to areas within the port or a few select areas nearby. With the establishment of each zone’s service areas, the ASF designation and its streamlined application requirements, companies can be added to an FTZ within approximately 30 days. Previously, the application process for the expansion of a zone took about a year from start to finish.

One of the first steps required for application of the ASF designation is the establishment of the zone’s service area. A requirement for inclusion in the service area is adjacency to a customs port of entry. Through the customs ports of entry, U.S. Customs and Border Protection enforce import and export laws, federal government regulations and immigration policy. The adjacency requirement is defined as being a site within 60 miles or 90-minutes drive time from the port of entry. The Port of Indiana-Burns Harbor’s customs port of entry is located at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. The Port of IndianaJeffersonville and the Port of Indiana-Mount Vernon ports of entry are Louisville and Owensboro, KY-Evansville, Ind., respectively. The service areas will be made up of individual counties that meet the adjacency requirements and each of these counties must approve its inclusion in a zone’s service area.

One of the new changes the ASF designation brings is time limits for activation of a zone site. Before, there were no time limits.

For existing zone sites, there is a five year limit on magnet sites if no portion is activated. For new individual expanded sites, the time limit for activation and utilization of the zone site is three years.

If these deadlines are not met, the site will lose zone status.

However, the ASF designation provides that a site’s zone status may be reinstated within 30 days.

Currently, the Ports of Indiana is in the process of filing an ASF application with the U.S. Foreign-Trade Zones Board for Burns Harbor. Applications for Mount Vernon and Jeffersonville ports will soon follow.
