Around 512,000 short tons of waterborne cargo (2001), a 12-foot channel and five commercial wharves sum up Norwalk on Connecticut's Long Island Sound - a barge port, not a container or liner gateway. Its trade is fuel oil, sand, gravel, crushed stone and shellfish, the harbour being well known for its oyster and clam fishery. The shallow channel admits only barges and small coastal craft, with no container, heavy-lift or international customs operation on site. For ship-size or containerised cargo in south-western Connecticut, Bridgeport or New Haven offer greater depth and terminal capability.
