Pacific River Maritime Security Continues Safety Patrols at Tacoma Narrows Bridge

Tacoma, WA (PRWeb) November 25, 2006 -- The Tacoma Narrows Bridge Project contacted Pacific River Maritime Security recently to secure their boat patrol services at the site of the new bridge project. Pacific River has been providing the project with two security patrol boats since July of 2006. The work will continue in December to finish raising the remaining bridge pieces.

Pacific River is there to aid in public safety by keeping boaters and other seagoing vessels out of harms way during lift operations. "We are customer service first, but safety is a priority" said Alan Espasandin, President and CEO of Pacific River. Many boaters are curious and want to watch the operations. We are there to allow them to observe but from a safe distance. The U.S. Coast Guard has declared a safety zone around the operation that requires boaters to stay at least 500 feet from all vessels involved in the construction operations.

"So far the project has gone without incident and we are working hard to insure the remaining days are safe for boaters and the construction crew." said Darrin Taylor, Pacific River's Special Operations Director. The company recognizes peoples desire to take photos and observe the lifting of the large bridge sections, but is contracted to enforce the Coast Guard Safety Zone.

Pacific River Maritime Security spends hours under and near the bridge project on their two patrol boats; the Misty Blue America and the Pacific River Freedom. Because of the long hours and their concern for safety the boat operaters work in varied shifts and are able to rest using their company mobile office. The security officers have also made good use of their time near the project by taking several photos, most of which are sure to become historical archives for the bridge's history.

You can go to their website where you can learn about their other services they provide in the Northwest such as on-site Maritime Compliance Officers at shipyards and armed MCO services for merchant vessels.

Mish Handwerker, Operations Director for Pacific River Maritime Security wants to remind the public to use extreme caution when transiting the area of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge during the construction. For more information about Pacific River Maritime and their services you can find them on the web at www.pacificriver.com they are based in Vancouver, Washington.

He even tried to force a particular car on me that I didnt even want, and the finance company that they deal with tried to push my rates close as 13 percent which is outrageous. I felt like I was being suckered into a deal so I turned towards the internet to get some information which is the best way to be successful in buying a car in todays world in my opinion.
