Please join us for a timely seminar on political issues facing Pacific ports. Find common ground with surrounding communities on vital economic growth as well as safety. Learn how to communicate your port’s benefits to communities during times of controversial projects. Find out the most effective avenues for your constituents’ voices to be heard. There will also be plentiful time to learn what's new at other ports and network with colleagues - all in beautiful Portland, Oregon!
