In Shipping 202 we look at the business of shipping from the perspective of the cargo as it moves, including different types of cargo; labor demands; and modes of cargo transportation. We discuss the needs of supply chain & logistics, and the role of regulatory compliance, as it effects the economy of the Columbia River.
