GPA moves forward

Whilst Control Risks’ consultants will provide strategic assessment and advice on port and terminal security, PMSI, a subsidiary of Eurotunnel plc, will provide training on all aspects of security for Control Risks’ maritime clients. A priority will be ensuring clients comply with the ISPS Code which comes into force on 1 July.

The Georgia Ports Authority are spending $819,000 on security enhancements including terminal lighting upgrades, installation of pole-mounted lights and the supporting infrastructure of a planned intrusion detection system for both Savannah and Brunswick. The two contracts will be funded through $1.5m in Port Security Grants awarded by the US Department of Homeland Security.
