The
selection, service, and appointment of
representative organizations to the
Board are covered by provisions of
Section 302 of Public Law 99–662. The
substance of those provisions is as
follows:
a. Selection. Representative
organizations are to be selected from the
spectrum of commercial carriers and
shippers using the inland and
intracoastal waterways, to represent
geographical regions, and to be
representative of waterborne commerce
as determined by commodity ton-miles
and tonnage statistics.
b. Service. The Board is required to
meet at least semi-annually to develop
and make recommendations to the
Secretary of the Army on waterways
construction and rehabilitation
priorities and spending levels for
commercial navigation improvements,
and report its recommendations
annually to the Secretary and Congress.
c. Appointment. The operation of the
Board and appointment of
representative organizations are subject
to the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(Pub. L. 92–463, as amended) and
departmental implementing regulations.
Representative organizations serve
without compensation but their
expenses due to Board activities are
reimbursable. The considerations
specified in Section 302 for the
selection of representative organizations
to the Board, and certain terms used
therein, have been interpreted,
supplemented, or otherwise clarified as
follows:
(1) Carriers and Shippers. The law
uses the terms ‘‘primary users and
shippers.’’ Primary users have been
interpreted to mean the providers of
transportation services on inland
waterways such as barge or towboat
operators. Shippers have been
interpreted to mean the purchasers of
such services for the movement of
commodities they own or control.
Representative firms are appointed to
the Board, and they must be either a
carrier or shipper or both. For that

purpose a trade or regional association
is neither a shipper nor primary user.
(2) Geographical Representation. The
law specifies ‘‘various’’ regions. For the
purposes of the Board, the waterways
subjected to fuel taxes and described in
Public Law 95–502, as amended, have
been aggregated into six regions. They
are (1) the Upper Mississippi River and
its tributaries above the mouth of the
Ohio; (2) the Lower Mississippi River
and its tributaries below the mouth of
the Ohio and above Baton Rouge; (3) the
Ohio River and its tributaries; (4) the
Gulf Intracoastal Waterway in Louisiana
and Texas; (5) the Gulf Intracoastal
Waterway east of New Orleans and
associated fuel-taxed waterways
including the Tennessee-Tombigbee,
plus the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway
below Norfolk; and (6) the ColumbiaSnake Rivers System and Upper
Willamette. The intent is that each
region shall be represented by at least
one representative organization, with
that representation determined by the
regional concentration of the firm’s
traffic on the waterways.
(3) Commodity Representation.
Waterway commerce has been
aggregated into six commodity
categories based on ‘‘inland’’ ton-miles
shown in Waterborne Commerce of the
United States. These categories are (1)
Farm and Food Products; (2) Coal and
Coke; (3) Petroleum, Crude and
Products; (4) Minerals, Ores, and
Primary Metals and Mineral Products;
(5) Chemicals and Allied Products; and
(6) All Other. A consideration in the
selection of representative organizations
to the Board will be that the
commodities carried or shipped by
those firms will be reasonably
representative of the above commodity
categories.
d. Nomination. Reflecting preceding
selection criteria, the current
representation by the one organization
for the vacant position includes the
Upper Mississippi River (Region 1),
shipper or carrier/shipper
representation and commodity
representation of Farm and Food
Products, Minerals, Ores, and Primary
Metals and Mineral Products, and All
Other. Consideration of qualified
candidates will be consistent with the
current composition of the Board to
remain well-balanced, and consistent
with the Board’s balance plan.
Individuals, firms or associations may
nominate representative organizations
to serve on the Board. Nominations will:
(1) Include the commercial operations
of the carrier and/or shipper
representative organization being
nominated. This commercial operations
information will show the actual or
