River Transport

Our Barge Terminal is a "water gateway" to the entire world. At the confluence of the Holston and French Broad Rivers, the Tennessee River begins its voyage out of the rolling hills of East Tennessee to the Tennessee TomBigbee Waterway System, the Mississippi River System, Ohio River System, and the intra-costal waterways to all water ports of the world.

At the Intersection of these three rivers Burkhart Enterprises, Inc. sits at mile 652.2 on the Tennessee River.
