Regional Perspectives on“Beyond the Border” David Davidson Border Policy Research Institute April 17, 2012
Progress!! • Rail and ferry preclearance • NEXUS benefits and marketing • New NEXUS ports (Sumas/Huntingdon + Lynden/Aldergrove) • Single-window • Law enforcement operations • Shiprider • NEXTGEN – “Jeeprider”
Progress?? – Primum non nocere… • Border wait-time measurement • Binational port operations committees (BPOC) • Trusted-trader modifications (“Tier 2”) • RFID-enabled documents
Wait-time Measurement via Magnetic Loop • Depends on: • Channelization • Booth status (open/close, NEXUS/std.) • Service rates
