Coast Guard Commandant visits MXAK

Admiral Bob Papp Commandant of the Coast Guard..

...visited the Marine Exchange of Alaska on August 8th to see first hand how far MXAK’s vessel tracking system has come since the Automatic Identification System (AIS) pilot program was launched five years ago.  The 11 AIS sites the Coast Guard requested be established in 2004 have grown to over 85 sites today with the support provided by the State of Alaska and the marine industry.  Admiral Papp remarked how important partnerships like the one with MXAK have become for attaining marine safety goals during these fiscally challenging times. See article and photos
