Discussion Outline AIS / VTS issues Ship-mediated Biological Invasions Surge in Deepwater Port Applications Crew Endurance Management Mariner Licensing & Documentation Program ICMTS R&T Symposium Harbor Safety Committees MTS / SEA 21 Legislation Maritime Domain Awareness
MTS/SEA 21 Legislation MTSNAC report to SECDOT. Recommendations for Investment in Our Nation s Marine Transportation System as Part of a Coherent, Coordinated, and Comprehensive Intermodal Transportation Policy Build on SAFETEA Recommendations Corridors and gateways program to improve intermodal transfer facilities Expanded TIFIA and STP eligibility Short Sea Shipping Create a Title XI loan guarantee like program for port infrastructure improvements needed to support Short Sea Shipping. Expand the Title XI Shipbuilding Loan Guarantee Program to facilitate Short Sea Shipping vessel and terminal construction, and shipyard revitalization. Permit the use of CCF deposits for the construction or reconstruction of vessels to be used in SSS. Prioritize SSS pilot projects
MTSNAC report to SECDOT Develop a public-private research partnership. Interagency Coordination Spend-down the Inland Waterways Trust Fund Spend-down of the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund Monies to be used for purposes for which they were intended Work in close collaboration with relevant agencies ( Homeland Security, USACE, NOAA, etc) Maintain accident prevention and protection of the environment as top MTS priorities. Develop policy for mariner recruitment and retention Draft Resolution May 4, 2004. Assess the economic consequences of a catastrophic event affecting the MTS affecting the MTS and identify mitigation strategies to recover the system of commerce.

Short Range Tracking Major Acquisition Project for AIS working to obligate $24M in FY04 Appropriations NDBC partnership to place AIS on offshore buoys & shore-side structures (over 70 units) Exploring additional short-term capabilities D1, D5, D7, D8, D9, D13, D14, D17 -Boston, New York, Norfolk, Miami, San Diego -National Data Buoy (3 buoys) -Gulf of Mexico (GOM) Platform AIS installs (7 sites) -D14 AIS install/test (C2CEN) (2 sites) -Alaska Secure Passive AIS (MISNA) (8 sites)
Long Range Identification & Tracking Plan Near Term (Current Year) - AIS Satellite (design and test) - Evaluate High Altitude Platforms (HALE) - Develop a voluntary vessel reporting program - Develop Rec Vessel Id Sys (VIS) Database plan - Pursue multilateral vessel reporting req at IMO - Draft and staff LRIT requirements Interim (2005 2010) - AIS Satellite (system build out possible 26 total) - GOM Phase II radar & EO/IR installs - National Data Buoy (potential of 80)
LRIT Plan (cont d) Interim (2005 2010) (cont d) -East &West Coast Platform installs (AIS, Radar, EO/IR) -Greater access to National Technical Means (NTM) -Integrate Deep Water and Rescue 21 capabilities -Test and implement automated intelligent agent technology -Stand up LRIT Tracking Facility/Integrate CG-2 arch -Institute multilateral, bilateral and, if necessary, unilateral vessel reporting capabilities Long Term (2010 beyond) -Achieve Persistent, Wide Area surveillance -Other Classified capabilities integrated into MHLS LRIT
MAXIMUM ESTIMATE VTS (PAWSS and CGVTS) St. Lawrence Seaway R&DCen Test Sites Current Capability (end of 2004)
Accelerated Capability (2005) Possible projects to be rolled into Nationwide Mostly receive only No buoys
2005 Initial NDBC capability (near shore) More networking
2006 Complete NDBC capability (offshore) Possible initial satellite capability (not shown)
