Lewis H. Watkins, U. S. Engi- neer for the Jacksonville district. The hearing is significant, be- cause for the first time the pro- posed waterway is being consid- ered by the army as an integral \part of the nation’s inland wa-/ terway system, from the point of | view of commercial as’ well as national defense and other pub- jlic benefits. The hearing on the barge ean-| al will also include the proposed | link from the Anclote river to St. | Marks in the Gulf and the West} | Coast-Intra-coastal Waterway. | “These two waterways, if con- structed”, said Col. Watkins, “will constitute important links! in the federal system of water-| ways and in the system required for the most economic develop- jment of Florida. They will pro-| vide a ready means of transpor- tation from the Atlantig to yee {Gulf and vice versa”. | The public forum will be hela | to provide data for a report to) Congress, and all interested par- ties are invited to be present or} represented at the hearing.
