2010 Waterfront Coalition Business Meeting



March 3, 2010 | The Hyatt Regency Long Beach| Long Beach, CA

Are you curious about how to get involved in efforts to eliminate congestion delays and reduce the carbon footprint of your company's supply chain both here in the U.S and abroad? Are you concerned that influential decision makers in California may consider new fees and tolls levied on cargo owners to pay for roads and bridges? Will the new Congress place fees on importers to pay for new highways and deficit reduction?

The Waterfront Coalition is committed to addressing these issues in the new year and we are pleased to announce the unveiling of our industry and government affairs agenda for 2010. If your company is a member of the Waterfront Coalition you can find out how to get involved in important policy discussions at the state and federal level that will impact the movement of your cargo. You will also find out what the Waterfront Coalition will be doing to support business practice changes around the country to improve your company's supply chain. If your company is not a Waterfront Coalition member, you can find out what this unique and fast growing group of shippers and transportation providers will be doing to make sure that international commerce moves efficiently in 2010.
