The waterway includes parts of the Neches River, Sabine River, Sabine Lake, and Taylor Bayou. The waterway ranks as third-busiest waterway in the U.S. in terms of cargo tonnage, according to the American Association of Port Authorities. It also ranks as the top bulk liquid cargo waterway, the top U.S. crude-oil importer, and is projected to become the largest LNG exporter in the United States.[1] The Gulf Intracoastal Waterway crosses the waterway near Port Arthur. Two of the top twenty (20) ports in terms of tonnage are located on the waterway. The Port of Beaumont, ranked fourth (4th) in the 2013 U.S. Port Ranking by Cargo Tonnage survey is located at the northern end of the waterway. The Port of Port Arthur, ranked eighteenth (18th) in the same survey, is located near the southern end of the waterway.[2] The Port of Orange is also served by the waterway. {{stack|}}The waterway is currently a minimum of 40 feet deep and a minimum of 400 feet wide. In 2014, federal congressional approval was received to deepen the waterway to a depth of 48 feet. The $1.1 billion deepening project is expected to start in 2017 with an estimated project length of 12 to 15 years.[3][4] HistoryThe governing navigation district, Sabine–Neches Navigation District was formed in 1909. The channel was deepened to twenty-five (25) feet in 1912. Channel depth was increased to thirty (30) feet in 1925. The channel was deepened to thirty-five (35) feet in 1935. The channel was deepened to its current depth of a minimum of forty (40) feet in 1962.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.navigationdistrict.org/about/the-waterway/|title=The Waterway|publisher=Sabine-Neches Navigation District|accessdate=October 10, 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://aapa.files.cms-plus.com/Copy%20of%202013%20U%20S%20%20PORT%20RANKINGS%20BY%20CARGO%20TONNAGE%5F1427222227746%5F1.xlsx | title=U.S. Port Ranking By Cargo Volume | publisher=American Association of Port Authorities | year=2013 | accessdate=October 9, 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|author1=Chelsea Henderson|title=Navigation district moving forward with waterway deepening project|url=http://www.navigationdistrict.org/navigation-district-moving-forward-waterway-deepening-project/|publisher=Sabine-Neches Navigation District|accessdate=October 10, 2015|date=September 26, 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Senate approves Sabine-Neches project|url=http://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/article/Senate-approves-Sabine-Neches-project-5498995.php|publisher=Hearst Newspapers, LLC|accessdate=October 10, 2015|date=May 22, 2014}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=SNND|url=http://www.navigationdistrict.org/about/snnd/|publisher=Sabine-Neches Navigation District|accessdate=October 17, 2015}} External links{{Portal|Texas}}{{Commons category|Sabine Neches Waterway}}
