The property is located at river mile 18 on the Columbia River adjacent and connected to the Columbia River Deepwater Shipping Channel via a 34 foot access channel. This location on the Columbia River Corridor makes North Tongue Point a well-situated portal to the Pacific Rim.
Each year, the Columbia and Snake Rivers carry 17 million tons of cargo to and from the Pacific Ocean along a 465-mile waterway. A series of eight locks facilitates the passage of ships from the ocean inland as far as Lewiston, Idaho.
From the ocean to Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington, dredging assures that a 40-foot-deep open river channel remains open year-long for ocean-going vessels. This 106-mile segment connects with the 359-mile segment that extends inland to Lewiston, Idaho.
