1. Discussion Questions: Container security is absolutely critical to the operation of the Maritime Transportation Security (MTS). There are 16,000 containers A DAY brought into this country so you have a good sense of the magnitude of this issue. To understand this issue, consider how you would categorize the vulnerabilities of Port systems to disruption by discussing the significance of the Secure Freight Initiative. In your discussion, be sure to explain the importance of CPB’s Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CT-PAT), and the resultant implications in delays in screening cargo on port operations.

2. Discussion Questions: The vulnerability of shipping from a variety of threat vectors is well documented. Small Boats, floating IEDs, submerged attacks and CBRNE attacks. After reading this week’s reference material consider all the threat vectors and pick the one you believe most probably in one of America’s top twenty ports…i.e. Los Angles, Houston etc.  Address why you believe that this threat vector is most probable. Additionally, consider port critical infrastructure such as oil refineries and their vulnerabilities. Pick a specific type of infrastructure and discuss what threat vector that you believe is most significant.
