Joint Conference of Harbor Safety Committees and Area Maritime Security Committees
Transcending Boundaries of Effort
Safety, Security, and Stewardship
June 8-10, 2010
Hyatt Regency Jersey City
Jersey City, New Jersey
In 2010, the United States Coast Guard harbor safety committees (HSCs) and area maritime security committees (AMSCs) will hold a joint conference aimed at transcending the boundaries of their efforts to improve safety and security and foster stewardship of port environments. HSCs are local coordinating bodies throughout the country that work with the U.S. Coast Guard to address issues relating to the safety, security, mobility, and environmental protection of a port or waterway. Membership is typically comprised of local representatives of government agencies, maritime labor and industry organizations, and public interest groups. AMSCs bring together representatives from a variety of sources in the port to assess security risks to the port and determine appropriate risk mitigation strategies. AMSC members may include U.S. Coast Guard personnel; federal, state, and local law enforcement and emergency response personnel; facility and vessel owners and operators; and labor.
