Barges nudge up to the Teevin Terminal on the Columbia River at Rainier, Oregon (UN/LOCODE US RAI), where tugboats load regional wood products for the trip downriver rather than deep-sea vessels calling directly. Opened in 2005 by Teevin Bros., the terminal falls under the jurisdiction of the Port of Columbia County, which spans 51 miles along the Columbia. The town itself has only about 2,000 residents, and cargo handling here is limited to barge traffic rather than ocean-going ships. Tug operators such as Shaver Transportation move barges between Rainier and points along the Columbia and Snake Rivers. The quay depth of roughly 6.4 meters is suited to river barges, not container or bulk vessels. For deep-sea shipping connections, the ports of Portland and Vancouver, Washington, roughly 100 km downstream, are the nearest alternatives.
