Abstract

THE PURPOSE OF THE CARGO SECURITY CONFERENCE WAS TO DEFINE THE LINES OF DEMARCATION BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT'S AND INDUSTRY'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR CORRECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS AND TO IDENTIFY THE ROLES OF GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES AT ALL LEVELS THAT WILL BEST LEAD TO AN EFFECTIVE NATIONWIDE CARGO SECURITY PROGRAM. THE TWO-DAY JUNE SESSION WAS DEVOTED TO A DISCUSSION OF GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSIBILITIES--FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL--IN MEETING THE CHALLENGE OF THE CARGO SECURITY CRISIS. THE TWO-DAY JULY SESSION OF THE CARGO SECURITY CONFERENCE SHIFTED THE FOCUS TO THE ROLES OF MANAGEMENT AND LABOR IN FORMULATING AN EFFECTIVE CARGO SECURITY. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT)
