                    HONORING CHANNEL LOGISTICS, LLC

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. ROBERT E. ANDREWS

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, July 28, 2006

  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend and honor Channel 
Logistics, LLC for their recent achievement in maritime domain and 
seaport security.
  On April 1, 2006, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic 
Engineers presented their Annual Corporate Innovation Award to Channel 
Logistics, LLC during the Institute's annual awards dinner in 
Philadelphia. The award recognizes the company's development of the 
Computer Assisted Threat Evaluation System. This system evaluates 
potential maritime and port security threats among ships, crew and 
cargo entering our ports. It is able to evaluate threats by analyzing 
information contained within maritime databases through the processes 
of data fusion, pattern and choke point mapping.
  This technology plays an important role in uncovering possible 
terrorist threats to our vulnerable maritime and port infrastructures. 
I am proud that Camden, NJ-based Channel Logistics, LLC is a leader in 
developing innovative technologies designed to secure our country and 
ports, and I congratulate them on receiving the IEEE's distinguished 
Annual Corporate Innovation Award.
