• Abstract:
  This report directly supports the priorities outlined in the U.S. National Strategy for the Arctic Region (NSAR). Under the NSAR’s subsequent January 2014 Implementation Plan, the Department of Transportation is listed as the lead agency for the Implementation Plan component “Prepare for Increased Activity in the Marine Domain.” On March 31, 2014, Secretary Foxx directed the CMTS on behalf of the Department, to manage the three marine transportation-related action items under this component. The first action item is to complete a 10-year projection of maritime activity in the U.S. Arctic region.
