  7. Recommendation #1 • Request that the implementation of all southbound vehicle, rail and pedestrian inspection operations by the United States Department of Homeland Security and Mexican General de Aduanas be coordinated with all state and local agencies. This enhanced cooperation and coordination will alleviate the potential for cross border traffic delays and congestion resulting in a safe, efficient and cost-effective transportation system that links the U.S.-Mexico border region to the global economy.

  8. Recommendation #2 • Without compromising U.S. and Mexico’s border security concerns, highway vehicular safety and trade, request both federal governments to honor the North American Free Trade Agreement’s long haul commercial vehicles regulations to allow U.S. and Mexican trucks to safely operate across our international border between our countries.

  9. Recommendation #3 • Request that the Federal Governments of Mexico and the United States establish a program to provide customs clearance for cargo containers prior to arrival at eligible U.S.-Mexico Border Ports of Entry. Such Customs Clearance Program would use cutting-edge technology for screening and clearing freight containers in a quick, efficient and secure fashion which will provide incentives for the various members of the supply-chain to become certified under current customs cooperation mechanisms such as Business Alliance for Secure Commerce (BASC) and Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT).

  10. Recommendation #4 • Request that both federal governments adopt an official policy to appropriate full funding necessary for prioritized projects along the U.S.-Mexico border.
