| 摘要： | After canceling its 2021 meeting due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Mississippi Valley Trade & Transport Council (MVTTC) held its annual conference February 24, marking the groups 40th anniversary. Held in New Orleans in the days leading up to Mardi Gras, the conference captured the celebratory spirit of the city, while also focusing on core topics of infrastructure, the economy, workforce development and commodities. David Ryan, MVTTC chairman and vice president of sales for Associated Ter- minals, opened the conference with a welcome to attendees, while Louisiana Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser delivered a keynote address. The conference then got down to business with a river operations and infrastructure panel discussion that featured Sean Duffy, executive director of the Big River Coalition, as moderator; Capt. Will Watson, captain of U.S. Coast Guard Sector New Orleans; Eddie Belk, director of programs for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Mississippi Valley Division; R. Christian Johnsen, a partner with Jones Walker LLP; and Mike Steen- hoek, executive director of the Soy Transportation Coalition. |
