CAMS Can Fill Void Left by Administration’s Decision to Cancel Nuclear Detection Program

Business Wire
On July 29th the New York Times reported that the US
Administration has cancelled its nuclear weapon detection program
for port scanning of cargo containers due to ineffectiveness and
false positive alerts. GateKeeper USA’s (OTC: GTKP.PK) CAMS device
(Container Automated Monitoring System) is the ready solution to
fill the void created by the halted A.S.P. program, install
effective automatic screening of cargo containers, facilitate
efficient supply chain transport, alleviate cargo traffic
congestion through CSI compliant ports, and ensure compliance with
Public Law and the CSI.
The recent announcement by the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office
of DHS that their ongoing program of equipping ports across the
country with Advanced Spectroscopic Portal monitors is being
discontinued will render compliance with Public Law 110-53
virtually impossible. PL 110-53 mandates inspection and
confirmation of safety of contents of all containers shipped into
the United States beginning March, 2012. Delaying that mandate
raises the risk of a non-compliant cargo container entering the
supply chain, leading to a potentially catastrophic disruption of
commerce and places at-risk, public safety and critical
infrastructures.
GateKeeper USA has previously announced 3rd party validation of
the superior detection capabilities of its proprietary CAMS for
CBRNE [Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosive],
which demonstrated that the technology inherent in its CAMS device
exceeds the requirements set forth in the law, and confirms that
the false-positive problem affecting competing devices currently
being implemented is not an issue for CAMS. Additionally, CAMS has
features not available with any other device, including video and
GPS real time monitoring and detection of spoilage in perishable
cargo, which are particularly appealing to large scale shippers
(retailers) with a need to track in excess of one million
containers each. Adoption of this technology by such shippers will
serve to increase efficiency and security throughout the entire
supply chain on a worldwide basis.
As GateKeeper’s approach to compliance with PL 110-53, the
Rotterdam Rules and the Safe Port Act can be compared to how
vehicular security safety rules are enforced, the use of CAMS in
containers can potentially save shippers thousands of dollars
annually in port delays, insurance liability, and re-routing costs
for containers denied unloading privileges due to non-compliance.
Additionally, CAMS can help eliminate a significant portion of the
financial and manpower burden on the Federal Government to conduct
physical scans, since CAMS creates electronic manifest and security
data scan updates that are sent to the destination port’s
Portmaster in real time, well in advance of the ship’s arrival. In
this manner, any WMD threat can be alerted and dealt with before
the ship has arrived. This protocol keeps any host country’s
harbors safer than the riskier method of scanning containers
already on the nation’s waters and soil.
