Session 6: Influences on Shipping Traffic and Waterways Safety

Date: 6/26/2019
Time: 3:30 PM - 5:00 PM
Location: Discovery AB

The Marine Transportation System (MTS) is a dynamic environment with a wide range of
competing activities which faces the challenge of growing its capacity to meet
increasing demand while simultaneously absorbing greater complexity. This situation
presents challenges for shared governance. In this session, panelists will discuss a number
of evolving developments which illuminate this dynamic, including changes in oil
movement, growing wind energy initiatives, and whale protection measures.
