Water:
The port’s location at the northern end of the Tenn-Tom near its confluence with the Tennessee River at Mile 215.5 in the Pickwick reservoir provides immediate access to two federally operated and maintained waterways.


The port is responsible for keeping its dockside berths and maneuver areas suitable for barges. However, little maintenance is needed since the port is located in the Yellow Creek Embayment that is part of Pickwick Lake where natural depths exist.  

The port serves standard hopper & large deck barges as well as tanker barges hauling petroleum products.
