Statewide Interest: |
Port Everglade is proposing an agressive strategy to address the vulnerabilities identified in the FDLE and US Coast Guard security assessments. Port Everglade ranks 2nd in the world in cruise passenger activity handling approximately 4.1 million passengers annually. An effective Closed Circuit Video surveillance system is required to protect cruise terminal, and will enhance the Port's ability to respond to active or passive threats. Currently, the ability to detect and appropriately respond to any threat is minimal. |
