THE COLLAPSE of the Hope River bridge - a significant link between Kingston and eastern Jamaica has reduced access by the island's sole cement manufacturer to critical raw materials and could speed up plans by Carib Cement Company to acquire a barge to transport inputs.
Even though we are cut off, one (good thing) is that we have significant inventories now, so it's not affecting operations," said [Anthony Haynes].
"We are looking at a barge option," said Haynes. "So our operations are not expected to be impacted in any way.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - It isn't so much the amount of water churning its way down the Missouri River that has people along the nation's longest waterway on edge. It's how long all that water will stick around.
The annual "spring rise" on the Missouri will last deep into this soggy summer, as a torrent of early season rains and winter snowpack flows through wide-open gates of South Dakota's Gavins Point Dam upriver and toward the confluence with the Mississippi River. The Missouri might start to crest soon, but it won't start to fall until August or later.

THOMASTON - Which mode of transportation works best often depends on the product to be transported, and at Dragon Cement in Thomaston, the product is as unwieldy as anything.
Heavy, bulky and finicky against the elements, Dragon's cement nonetheless has made it to foundations, bridges and buildings from Canada to southern New England, with most of Maine and Boston's Big Dig in between. To achieve that kind of distribution, Dragon relies on all forms of transportation with the exception of the skies. According to Ray DeGrass, who manages Dragon's iconic cement plant on Route 1 in Thomaston, distribution is the easy part.
... the cement is loaded onto a Dragon-owned barge bound for Boston Harbor. "Anything that's going to...
