Communication and partnerships. Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) stakeholders would agree those are two words that have defined the Gulf Intracoastal Canal Association (GICA) for years. And in his two years as GICA president, Paul Dittman has carried that torch, communicating waterway issues to GICA members with lightning speed and partnering with local, state and federal partners through hurricanes and more to help ensure safe, reliable and efficient marine transportation throughout the Gulf Coast region. The Waterways Journal interviewed Dittman ahead of GICA's annual seminar to find out, in his words, what issues, challenges and opportunities are facing the waterway; what waterway stakeholders can anticipate for the future; and what continues to he GICA's "secret sauce" for success. |
