Opinion: Dredging Houston Ship Channel is Good for Business and the Environment<span-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black">
<span-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black">The Houston Ship Channel is the busiest waterway in the country and arguably one of the most strategic waterways in the world. The long-planned expansion and widening
of the channel is an essential improvement for Houston and far beyond. Despite COVID-related downturns, Houston’s imports and exports have been resilient, and as we recover that activity will lead the nation’s rebound. Our U.S. Army Corps of Engineers partner
says the channel “creates value for the nation” and that’s never been truer. The $876 million channel expansion, set to begin in 2021, is also good for the environment. A wider channel is safer, lowering risks of collisions and related adverse economic and
environmental impacts. It will also make getting in and out of the port easier for big ships, and that will reduce delays for everyone.
