All designated publishers of the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority’s Port Pass have suspended operations as of yesterday, March 19th at noon. Port Passes expiring over the next six (6) weeks will be extended for 30 days beyond the expiry date in the CAMS system to enable continuation of port operations – this ‘system override’ action will only be performed by VFPA Security. The VFPA Security Office at Canada Place will continue to operate limited hours to facilitate Marine Transportation Security Clearance appointments on Wednesdays from 08:00 to 17:00 until further notice. Note that the VFPA cannot extend the Marine Transportation Security Clearance expiry dates. Sponsorship for MTSC will be done by VFPA during this period. Questions regarding Port Pass procedures can be sent by email to portpass@cosbc.ca or visit our MTSC webpage.
