  • 2014 Annual Report Dear Friends of Freight
    IMPROVING FREIGHT CORRIDORS TO BENEFIT THE STATE’S ECONOMY & LOCAL COMMUNITIES FREIGHT MOBILITY STRATEGIC INVESTMENT BOARD 2014 ANNUAL REPORT DEAR FRIENDS OF FREIGHT: Freight Mobility Strategic Investment Board (FMSIB) members include representatives from ports, railroads, the marine sector, trucking, cities, counties, the state, and citizens at large. This representation is key to FMSIB’s success in facilitating partnerships to fund and to build complex projects. Freight movers, like other users of the system, benefit when the state invests in preserving and maintaining our state’s transportation system. For this reason, freight stakeholders are in strong support of a transportation package and can accept increases in fees and taxes if they are directly reinvested into the transportation network. Earlier this year, the Washington Freight Advisory Committee (WFAC), a FMSIB standing subcommittee, partnered with WSDOT in the development of the Washington State Freight Mobility Plan. Among other recommendations, the report urges the state to address the over $1 billion in identified at-grade rail crossing needs in a systematic way. Since its inception, FMSIB has participated in funding 22 grade separations at a total value of $353.5 million. But there remains a tremendous amount of work ahead. Washington State is at a transportation crossroads where new ways of doing business and new forms of partnership are needed. One example is the historic partnership announced by the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma in October 2014 to unify management of the two ports’ marine cargo terminals in a seaport alliance. By joining forces, Seattle and Tacoma will rank as the third-largest container gateway in North America.

  • Convention Brochure
    Welcome from your PNWA President Welcome to our 2019 Annual Convention. It’s fitting that we’re gathering and celebrating PNWA’s 85th anniversary here in Vancouver. Fort Vancouver was the Pacific Northwest’s original and foremost trading station, and the furs shipped from here often found their way across the Pacific Ocean to China. The Pacific Northwest is still one of North America’s key gateways to the Pacific Rim, and we still rely on our rivers and ocean to power our economy, in many different ways. It’s always a great pleasure to connect with representatives of so many industries and organizations who share that common bond. PNWA continues to be a respected voice for our diverse interests in our region and the nation’s capital, including the ten new members who joined us in 2019. Our funding and policy priorities remain at the forefront of agency and Congressional leaders’ deliberations. Industry analysts, the news media and– increasingly – the general public are also becoming more aware of the critical importance of our coastal, deepwater and upriver infrastructure, and of PNWA’s role in advocating for these projects. The number of reporters who sought PNWA’s perspective on the recent Bonneville navigation lock outage, for example, demonstrates our reputation. It’s been my great honor and pleasure to serve these past two years as your PNWA President. Thank you all for your support and guidance. I leave you in Dave Harlan’s capable hands, but you know I’ll always remain involved! Enjoy the conference, Rob Rich, Shaver Transportation President, PNWA Kristin Meira Executive Director (503) 234-8556 (direct) [email protected] As PNWA’s Executive Director, Kristin Meira leads the association’s work with Congress, federal agencies and regional decision makers on transportation, trade, energy and environmental policies and projects.
