NEW SECURITY FACILITY AT PORT OF LONG BEACH

LONG BEACH – 04/16/07 – The Port of Long Beach has started construction of a $20 million Security Command and Control Center, a post-9/11 facility for the port’s expanding Security Division and law enforcement partnership.

The 25,000-square-foot facility will serve as the communications hub and headquarters for the Port of Long Beach Security Division and Harbor Patrol, and also house security units from the Long Beach Police Department and Port of Los Angeles.

The three-story structure will also accommodate the US Coast Guard, US Customs and Border Protection (USCBP), and Marine Exchange during any emergency situation. 
The new facility is being funded by the Port of Long Beach and the US Department of Homeland Security, which contributed $8.1 million toward the total cost.

According to the port, the facility will be a “regional resource” that will house emergency management facilities including a Department Operations Center (DOC) for use in coordinating law enforcement response to emergencies anywhere the San Pedro Bay port complex.

The San Pedro Bay is home to both the Port of Long Beach and its neighboring Port of Los Angeles, the two busiest container ports in the country. Together the ports’ combined container throughput makes them one of the three largest “load centers” in the world.

The Center is expected to open in late 2008.
