3.2.2.5 Other Modes
Completion requirements
Other modes of transportation such as couriers and pipelines are less commonly used and typically quite product specific. Remember the original mode of product delivery ... by hand, on foot. Though less frequent, in many communities mail (and small
packet mail-order products) are still delivered to the consumer's doorstep by letter carriers.
Generally, pipelines carry water, chemicals, or petroleum products. They are usually owned by the producer and carry only the producer's product. Often, pipelines face significant environment opposition during the planning stages. However, after they are built, pipelines are relatively inexpensive to operate.
