Memo

In response to information provided by VOHMA member Sam Rogers, Manager Marine Operations / Security, China Shipping (NA) Agency Co., Inc. we have initiated a VOHMA public webpage for the publication of information on dangerous goods restrictions during the 2010 World Expo Shanghai China, May 1 - October 21, 2010.

In presentations made at the VOHMA Annual Meeting in Long Beach CA, April 1, 2009, Mr. Zhengcai Chen, Division Director, Ministry of Transport and Mr. Guigen Fan, Deputy Division Director, Port of Shanghai, indicated that they are working hard to ensure that transportation of essential materials continues to move as efficiently as possible while ensuring the safety and security of the over 70 million visitors that are expected to attend the event.
