Yeah, that's the Savannah. However, I doubt it transports anything, because it is dammed up in a number of places. The Southeast doesn't really have much in the way of waterways, so most stuff is transported by rail and truck. Abundant waterways are a big reason why the Northeast dominated the national economy during the first century of America's existance. The city of Atlanta originated as the railway hub of the region.

<edit> Those pics are of the ocean-side city Savannah, not the river. It is a major port, and those ships are ocean liners dropping stuff off, not river-going transports.
