Dear «Name»
Thank you for talking with us today. We invite you to take part in the Survey. This is an
important study for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to evaluating policy changes related to
the maintenance and support of the navigable waterway along the Upper Mississippi River in
your area. In order to assess the potential impact and demand responses to different levels of
investment, the Corps is collecting information related to transportation movements along this
waterway. This information will help shape the future of transportation on the river system.
We need to know more about the transportation and shipping decisions you make when
shipping your commodities. Please complete regarding your experiences with shipping on the
Upper Mississippi River. This study is voluntary, and results will remain confidential. The survey
will take about 15 minutes. Your participation is critical to understanding your and others
experiences with the river system. The web survey is available online:
