This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OSHA 1917 Marine Terminals II Textbook for Specialized Terminals - Terminal Facilities - and Related Terminal Operations and Equipment, is the continuation of OSHA Marine Terminals of Part I for Subpart A - General Provisions; Subpart B - Marine Terminal Operations, and Subpart C - Cargo Handling Gear and Equipment. A direct copy of our reference text of 29 CFR OSHA Part 1917 Marine Terminals, February 2017 is included with our work. While the reference copy is reasonably accurate we have made minor corrections of spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors. However, private individuals do not have the right to correct errors written into public documents. Thus, to obtain a true copy of OSHA 1917 Marine Terminals, the student should key in key in OSHA Part 1917. Do this to recognize the misspelled words of government documents. Misspelled words frequent appear of professional licensing examinations. Only the federal or state statute book as written is correct. The official Government Publishing Office (GPO) book is always correct because it is the law. Professional exams are not about personal opinions of what the individual thinks, guesses or has an opinion of what the law should say.

Book Port Management and Operations

Download or read book Port Management and Operations written by Maria G. Burns and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-07-21 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With 80 percent of the world’s commodities being transported by water, ports are the pillars of the global economy. Port Management and Operations offers readers the opportunity to enhance their strategic thinking and problem-solving skills, while developing market foresight. It examines global port management practices at the regulatory, commercial, technological, operational, financial, and sociopolitical levels. This powerful sourcebook describes how seaports are being affected by the changes occurring nationally, regionally, and globally. Evaluating the new regulatory framework, it pinpoints the industry’s implementation readiness and identifies potential problem areas. The book classifies the spectrum of interrelated port management principles, strategies, and activities in a logical sequence and under four cornerstones—Port Strategy and Structure, Legal and Regulatory Framework, Input: Factors of Production, and Output and Economic Framework. Detailing best practices and the latest industry developments, the book highlights emerging challenges for port managers and identifies opportunities to develop forward-thinking strategies. It examines the effectiveness of current strategies, tactics, tools, and resources of numerous global ports and highlights the necessity of adopting a proactive stance in harmonizing the laws, regulations, and policies pertaining to the maritime, oil, and gas industries. The shipping industry has myriad complexities and this book provides maritime managers and professionals with the wide-ranging and up-to-date understanding required to thrive in today’s highly competitive and evolving environment.

Book Terminal Operators and Their Role in U S  Port and Maritime Security

Download or read book Terminal Operators and Their Role in U S Port and Maritime Security written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The failed attempt by Dubai Ports World (DP World) to operate marine terminals at some U.S. ports raises the issue of whether foreign marine terminal operators pose a threat to U.S. homeland security. Notwithstanding the proposed sale of U.S. terminal operations by DP World to a U.S. entity, the underlying issue remains because many U.S. marine terminals are operated by foreign-based companies and a similar transaction could occur in the future, given the global nature of the shipping industry. Evaluating the potential security ramifications of foreign-based terminal operators requires first understanding how ports work and who is in charge of their security. Most major U.S. ports are publicly owned by a "port authority," which is a public organization associated with a city, county, regional, or state government. A port typically contains many terminals that are each designed to handle different types of cargo. Some port authorities operate all or some of their marine terminals, but most ports lease their facilities to several different terminal operating companies. All of the cargo handling that takes place on a marine terminal is performed by members of a longshoremen's union. The Coast Guard is in charge of the security of port facilities and vessels, and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is in charge of the security of cargo. Coast Guard regulations and CBP security guidelines require terminal operators to provide basic security infrastructure, such as fences, gates, and surveillance cameras, and follow certain security practices when handling cargo. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is developing a credentialing process for screening port workers. However, port security involves much more than the measures put in place within the immediate vicinity of a U.S. port complex. Not finding a terrorist-placed weapon until after it reaches a U.S. port could be too late to prevent a potentially catastrophic event. Thus, securing the cargo and ships in transit to U.S. ports is critical and consequently the bulk of federal security activity takes place before cargo is unloaded at U.S. ports. Key layers of security are CBP's scrutiny of U.S.-bound cargo at the overseas port of loading and the Coast Guard's scrutiny of ships before they enter U.S. harbors. The necessity of pushing the border out to counter the terrorist threat requires the cooperation of shippers, carriers, ports, and border agencies in the country of origin to take security precautions with U.S.-bound cargo. Global terminal operators like DP World may handle U.S. cargo at the overseas loading port, even if they do not handle it at a U.S. port. Thus, a key issue for policymakers is deciding under what conditions the United States should trust foreign cargo-handling entities and whether they should be treated as partners in securing U.S. supply lines. The DP World controversy refueled debate about whether the nation is doing enough, with sufficient urgency, to secure U.S. ports. In its oversight role, Congress is assessing the effectiveness of Coast Guard and CBP maritime security initiatives and faces pressing questions about the overall security of ports and maritime commerce.

Book Analyses of Interactions Between the Marine Terminal and Highway Operations

Download or read book Analyses of Interactions Between the Marine Terminal and Highway Operations written by Birnur Özbaş and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changes in vessel sizes arriving at United States ports may influence the operating regimes and schedules at the port terminals. However, the impacts to highway and rail operations outside of the port terminals because of changing port terminal operations are less clear. For example, anticipated changes in frequency and peak volume of the inbound marine cargo may translate into a corresponding change in highway demand as more trucks seek access to port terminals during peak hours, leading to increased traffic congestion disruptions in traffic operations. Therefore, the researchers seek to understand and quantify the effect of the increasing introduction of the mega-ships and related changes in port operations on a regional highway and rail system. Increased understanding will help planners and engineers identify and evaluate solutions to prevent the disruption of regional freight transportation systems. The research team developed a simulation model of a hypothetical port terminal to analyze “what- if” scenarios depicting changes in vessel size and arrival frequency. Researchers examined two policies commonly used to control the truck arrival patterns at the gate, extended gate hours and gate appointment systems, to assess the performance of the simulation model. Overall, four scenarios illustrate the performance of the combined terminal and highway system by comparing truck wait times, and truck queues at the terminal gate. The simulation model performs well in generating order of magnitude scenario results for comparison. Detailed model applications, and potential a combination of modeling software, may improve results.
