Event Description:
JOIN WITOC for our 24th Annual Seaport Operations Tour & Harbor Cruise Luncheon. Learn from and network with port authorities, industry professionals, container terminal and freight station operators, warehouse and distribution proprietors and view cargo movements and port operations from the ground, rail and sea. (continental breakfast will be served on the bus en route to the Port)
Highlights of this year’s tour include: Tour of the Long Beach Container Terminal (LBCT) to see the Pier E redevelopment project combining two aging shipping terminals into the greenest, most technologically advanced container terminal in the world. Pier E facility opened in April of 2016 so we will witness the latest environmental and technological achievements and see first-hand unloading of cargo from a vessel calling into port.
Narrated 90 min tour of the Port of Long Beach aboard Spirit Cruises w/lunch for a close-up view of the largest port complex in the United States with the opportunity to meet and greet Harbor officials. See towering cranes, the most advanced and green terminal in the world, new infrastructure projects such as the Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement, and possibly even catch a glimpse of local marine life.
Tour of Price Transfer’s MET (Trade Compliance) Facility. Price Transfer is the Industry Leader in CBP Centralized Examination Stations. Join this tour to get an exclusive behind the scenes look at their MET (Trade Compliance) Facility and witness Trade Enforcement Examinations.
