TWIC card to offer extension

Nice find! Thanks

 

Been to all kinds of fancy ports but never have seen a reader yet. Just another way for someone to make money off the working man.
Union Pacific is the only one close with finger print readers that have big issues !!

 

good report, thank you. i do have a "TWIC card", but i do not think that i will renew it or extend it.

i do not haul for anyone that needs to go into a seaport area, airport, etc.etc.

i think that i wasted my money for something that takes up space in my wallet. it DOES NOT necessarily make one more employable. i been finding that out.

 

Here's the information link you need. Remember this starts in August. Unfortunately mine was already going to expire so I had to renew it early.

I actually had to get my TWIC for a non-trucking contract job that I had in a port in New York. I think I'll take advantage of the extension.

 

Evidently you haven't been in any of the chemical plants or refineries. BASF, Rubicon, IMTT,Dow and a host of others both require and check em at security. Saw a van hauler get mouthy about being "escorted" in last week at IMTT and they just sent him away.

 

Yep. I used mine daily and I was nowhere near a large body of water or an airport.

 

Where do yo use yours at? I used mine at the airport gong though security to ride a jet.

 

I was hauling sulfuric acid and I load at a couple of places that are supplied by barges on a canal/river. Plus I deliver to some chemical plants that have river/canal access.
