| 摘要： | Capt. Alan Bernstein's column in WorkBoat is always one of the first I turn to in each edition (March, Captain's Table, "Negative effects of TWIC"). I have to say, though, I much prefer the TWIC program as is. If I remember right, its genesis pre-dated 9/11. The pilot program cut down pilferage at marine terminals. I think it was in Florida ... 9/11 just accelerated the roll out. More importantly for mariners though, before TWIC we had to travel to U.S. Coast Guard exam centers to get fingerprinted with each renewal. For me that was two states away, a 10-hour round trip drive, plus sitting in the REC during precious time ashore. There are now many, many more TWIC enrollment centers which makes it easy. And the cost is now negated by not having to pay for TSA Pre-Check. |
