Miscellaneous International Trade Notices
According to The Journal of Commerce, the Intermodal Container Inspection System (ICIS), developed by a San Diego-based company and a Hong Kong container terminal association has been extended beyond its six-month trial run in order to give Department of Homeland Security officials and congressional staff more time to see the system in action. The article states that the ICIS project is designed to record data from a container and collect a gamma-ray image of its interior as the truck approaches the terminal gate.
