    Spring 2017 Industry Study Industry Report Transportation The Dwight D. Eisenhower School for National Security and Resource Strategy National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319-5062 i TRANSPORTATION 2017 ABSTRACT: The transportation industry has long been the keystone of America’s security, military strength, and economic prowess. Today, challenges besiege this vital industry, directly impacting its ability to meet national resourcing requirements and continued economic expansion. The most significant challenges are labor shortages, inadequate infrastructure, and barriers to automation (to include cyber security threats), each of which is impacted by burdensome regulation. The government, in coordination with industry stakeholders, must address these challenges by making strategic investments in infrastructure, reviewing, revising or rescinding current regulations, and implementing new policies to incentivize growth and industry efficiency.

  • Matthew Henson (August 8, 1866 – March 9, 1955) “First African-American Artic Explorer”
    The Clerk’s Black History Series Debra DeBerry Clerk of Superior Court DeKalb County Matthew Henson (August 8, 1866 – March 9, 1955) “First African-American Artic Explorer” Matthew Henson was born August 8, 1866, in Nanjemoy, Maryland, to freeborn black sharecropper parents. In 1867, his parents and three sisters moved to Georgetown to escape racial violence where his mother died when Matthew was seven years old. When Matthew’s father died, he went to live with his uncle in Washington, D.C. When Matthew was ten years old, he attended a ceremony honoring Abraham Lincoln where he heard social reformer and abolitionist, Frederick Douglas speak. Shortly thereafter, he left home, determined to find his own way. After working briefly in a restaurant, he walked all the way to Baltimore, Maryland. At the age of 12, Matthew went to sea as a cabin boy on the merchant ship Katie Hines, traveling to Asia, Africa and Europe under the watchful eye of the ship’s skipper, Captain Childs. After Captain Childs died, Matthew moved back to Washington, D.C. When Matthew was 21 years old, he met Commander Robert E. Peary, an explorer and officer in the U.S. Navy Corps of Civil Engineers. Impressed with Matthew’s seafaring experience, Commander Peary recruited him for an upcoming voyage to Nicaragua. After returning from Nicaragua, Matthew found work in Philadelphia, and in April 1891 he met and married Eva Flint. But shortly thereafter, the two explorers were off again for an expedition to Green- land and the marriage to Eva ended. Matthew and the Commander would cover thousands of miles across the sea and the world, exploring and making multiple attempts to reach the North Pole.

Abstract This report examines the potential effects of short sea shipping (SSS) development on the Texas transportation system. The project region includes Texas, Mexico, and Central America. In the international arena, the most likely prospects are for containerized shipments using small container ships. In the domestic arena, the most likely prospects are for coastwise shipments using modified offshore service vessels or articulated tug/barges. Only three Texas ports handle containers consistently (Houston accounts for 95% of the total), and three more handle containers sporadically.

  • The Maritime Dimension of Csdp
    DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR EXTERNAL POLICIES OF THE UNION DIRECTORATE B POLICY DEPARTMENT STUDY THE MARITIME DIMENSION OF CSDP: GEOSTRATEGIC MARITIME CHALLENGES AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS FOR THE EUROPEAN UNION Abstract The global maritime security environment is in the midst of an important transformation, driven by a simultaneous intensification of global maritime flows, the growing interconnectedness of maritime regions, the diffusion of maritime power to emerging powers, and the rise of a number of maritime non-state actors. These changes are having a profound impact on the maritime security environment of the EU and its member states and require an upgrading of the maritime dimension of the EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). This study analysis the impact that the changing maritime security context is having on the EU’s maritime neighbourhood and along the EU’s sea lines of communications (SLOCs) and takes stock of the EU’s existing policies and instruments in the maritime security domain. Based on this analysis, the study suggests that the EU requires a comprehensive maritime security strategy that creates synergies between the EU’s Integrated Maritime Policy and the maritime dimension of CSDP and that focuses more comprehensively on the security and management of global maritime flows and sea-based activities in the global maritime commons.

    Commentary THE FLOOR OF THE ARCTICOCEAN: GEOGRAPHIC NAMES M. A. Beall, F. Edvalson2, K. Hunkins3, A. Molloyl, and N. Ostenso4 HE NAMING OF OCEAN FLOOR features in the Arctic seems to have been done Twithout thought to standardization in geographic nomenclature. W. K. Lyon, Director of the Arctic Sciences and Technology Division of the US.Navy Electronics Laboratory, called a meeting of the authors of the present paper to arbitrate the naming of these features in the hope that it would help to stem the proliferation of new namesand to standardize the names of the major features. The decisions of the meeting which was held in San Diego on 10 and 11 January 1966 were based on the following criteria: 1. Consistency with the Undersea terms and definitions proposed by the Advisory Committee on Undersea Features to the U.S. Board on Geo- graphicNames (Washington, D.C.: 1964) andLimits of Oceans and Seas, InternationalHydrographic Bureau Special PublicationNo. 23 (Monte Carlo: 1953) 2. Common usage 3. Priority of discovery or naming 4. Association withestablished geographic features 5. Minimizing ambiguity Fifty-four major features were discussed. Table 1 lists the names considered, the final suggested name, the approximate location, and the status of the name with the U.S. Board on Geographic Names and the International Hydrographic Bureau. The final suggested names represent the majority decision of the authors but it should be noted that in certain cases there was not complete unanimity. For the most part, however, it it felt that the accepted names should raise little controversy. The authors will endeavour to use the final suggested namesin future publications, and it is hoped that other investigatorswill find them suitable for their use.
