Traffic
Mitigation
Seaworthy provides turnkey services for new water transportation
system start-ups, reducing road traffic of both people and
freight. One on-going example is our roll-on, roll-off barge
transport system for Boston Harbor’s Water Resources
Authority. Daily, up to two hundred “18 wheelers”
can be transported to and from the construction

site, eight miles across Boston Harbor. We designed and
financed a major part of the system and its hauling equipment.
Noise
Mitigation
The impact of elevated noise levels on operating personnel,
passengers, and the surrounding environment is becoming
increasingly important. Our engineers are involved with
noise surveys, source identification and control. Recently,
a new passenger ferry had noise levels so high that it could
not be placed in service. Through our efforts the noise
level in the passenger spaces was reduced to below owner’s
requirements. We also developed noise specifications and
test procedures for a double hull tank barge so that it
could utilize its diesel powered pumps 24 hours a day in
a residential neighborhood.
