Questions for this shipment:

Response: Time of day would be normal business hours, 8AM-6PM, monday-saturday, could be earlier or later, would have to coodinate with the person loading the shells. (10/8/2009)
Question: The best way to do it is to get local dump trucks to load onto a barge. Barge it to Charleston, then use again local dump trucks to deliver to final destination. I think that is the only way you might get this done. COS (10/8/2009)

Response: The material will be loaded with a front end loader by the person providing the shell. The product can be moved at your convienance, but will be limited to availability. The oyster shells are being provided by a shucking house and delivery is dependent on availability of shell. It would probably over the course of a few months. (10/20/2009)
