PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION

ANNUAL REPORT

FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1987

PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION

Balboa, Republic of Panama

OFFICE OF THE ADMINISTRATOR

FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR

It is a pleasure to submit the annual report of the Panama Canal

Commission for fiscal year 1987.

This report covers the eighth year of operation under the terms of the

Panama Canal Treaty. During this period, Canal traffic and tolls revenue edged moderately upward over the previous year. Oceangoing transits increased 2.4 percent with a near parallel increase in tolls revenue of 2.2 percent. Most of the growth resulted from a sharp improvement in corn

shipments and gains in a number of other commodities. While overall

traffic was slightly up from last year, average vessel size remained near

1986 levels.

To ensure the long-term effective operation of the Canal, continued

emphasis was placed on maintenance and modernization programs.

Important major projects included the overhaul of the massive sea gates at Miraflores Locks, the addition of five new towing locomotives at Gatun

Locks, dredging of the Pacific approach channel and enhancement of the new, second generation computerized marine traffic scheduling and

monitoring system.

In the area of human resources, training programs continued to receive

high priority to ensure increased participation by qualified Panamanians
throughout the organization. Panamanian citizens now comprise approximately 83 percent of the Commission work force with increasing involvement at all management levels. During the past year, the Commission's

binational work force demonstrated exceptional esprit de corps, while

providing high quality transit service.

The Panama Canal Commission's performance during fiscal year 1987

demonstrated once again that the waterway remains an important and

efficient conduit for world trade. I am confident that our dedicated work

force and the effectiveness of our ongoing modernization and mainte- nance efforts will allow the Panama Canal to continue handling the demand for its unique transit service well into the future.

INTRODUCTION

ORGANIZATION

The Panama Canal Commission is an agency of the Executive Branch of

the United States Government, provided for by the Panama Canal Treaty

of 1977, and established by the Panama Canal Act of 1979 (93 Stat. 452; 22

U.S.C. 3601 et seq), enacted September 27, 1979. The authority of the

President of the United States with respect to the Commission is exercised

through the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Army. The

Commission is supervised by a nine-member Board. Five members are nationals of the United States appointed by the President with the advice

and consent of the Senate. Four members are nationals of the Republic of

Panama who are proposed by the Republic of Panama for appointment by

the President.

The Commission was established to carry out the responsibilities of the United States with respect to the Panama Canal under the Panama Canal

Treaty of 1977. In fulfilling these obligations, the Commission manages,

operates, and maintains the Canal, its complementary works, installations,

and equipment, and provides for the orderly transit of vessels through the Canal. The Commission will perform these functions until the treaty ter- minates on December 31, 1999, when the Republic of Panama will assume

full responsibility for the Canal.

The Commission is expected to recover through tolls and other revenues

all costs of operating and maintaining the Canal, including interest, depreciation, capital for plant replacement, expansion and improvements, and

payments to the Republic of Panama for public services and annuities, in accordance with paragraph 5 of Article III and paragraphs 4(a) and (b) of

Article XIII, respectively, of the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977. Revenues

from tolls and all other sources are deposited in the U.S. Treasury in an

account known as the Panama Canal Commission Fund. Appropriations

for operating expenses and capital improvements are enacted annually by

the Congress and are limited to the sum of the estimated receipts for the

year, plus any unexpended balances in the Panama Canal Commission

Fund.

THE CANAL

The Panama Canal is a lock-type canal approximately 51 miles long

from deep water to deep water. The minimum width of the navigable
2 INTRODUCTION

channel is 500 feet. Navigable channel depth can vary according to the amount of water available in Canal storage areas; however, the normal

permissible transit draft is 39 feet 6 inches tropical fresh water. Vessels transiting the Canal are raised in three steps to the level of Gatun

Lake, the principal source of Canal water, then lowered to sea level again

in three steps. The three sets of Canal locks are paired so as to permit

simultaneous lockage of two vessels in the same or opposite direction. Since August 15, 1914, the official date of its opening, the Panama

Canal has served world trade virtually without interruption. Through this

fiscal year, a total of 677,521 vessels of all types have transited with 570,239

or 84.2 percent of the total being of the oceangoing commercial class. TOLL RATES

Toll rates are: (a) on merchant vessels, Army and Navy transports,

hospital ships, supply ships, and yachts, when carrying passengers or

cargo, $1.83 per net vessel ton of 100 cubic feet of actual earning capacity,

as determined in accordance with the "Rules of Measurement of Vessels

for the Panama Canal;" (b) on such vessels in ballast, without passengers

or cargo, $1.46 per net vessel ton; and (c) on other floating craft, $1.02 per ton of displacement.

By treaty, the United States continues to provide to Colombia free transit through the Canal of its troops, materials of war, and ships of war.

CANAL TRAFFIC
Chapter I

CANAL TRAFFIC

TRAFFIC

Canal traffic and tolls revenue continued upward in fiscal year 1987,

although at a more moderate rate than the previous year. Most of the growth resulted from a sharp improvement in corn shipments and

moderate gains in a number of other commodities.

Oceangoing transits in fiscal year 1987 increased 2.4 percent to 12,313, or 33.7 vessels daily, from 12,023, or 32.9 daily, the prior year. Commercial

vessels accounted for 12,230 of the total oceangoing transits, up from

11,925 in fiscal year 1986. Vessels owned or operated by the U.S. Government and free Colombian and Panamanian Government vessels accounted

for 83 transits, compared with 98 last year. While overall traffic showed growth over the prior year, vessel size remained near 1986 levels. Transits by vessels having beams of 100 feet and

over totaled 2,668 compared with 2,627 transits the prior year. As a result, transits in this beam category as a proportion of total oceangoing transits decreased from 21.8 percent in 1986 to 21.7 percent, the first decline in this important traffic element since 1984. Vessels having beams of 80 feet and

over accounted for 5,908 transits or 48 percent of total oceangoing transits compared with 5,898 or 49.1 percent in 1986. The lull in vessel size growth was reflected in the average Panama Canal net tonnage of oceangoing

commercial vessels, which dropped slightly to 15,248 tons from the record

15,328 tons reached in the prior year. Total Panama Canal net tonnage increased 2.0 percent to 187.3 million

in fiscal year 1987 from 183.8 million tons in the prior year. Correspondingly, tolls revenue rose 2.2 percent to $329.9 million from the $322.7

million in 1986. The high level of traffic was achieved despite a major landslide in Gaillard Cut on October 13, 1986, and persistent political unrest in Panama, which prevailed during the latter part of the fiscal year.

COMMODITIES AND TRADE ROUTES

Cargo movements in 1987 registered a fairly high rate of increase with

other compared elements of traffic, with total commercial tonnage rising 6.2 percent to 148.7 million long tons from 139.9 million tons in the prior

year. This relatively strong performance reflected an improvement in bulk

cargoes, particularly grains.

Reversing the declining trend of the prior four years, grain shipments

increased 41.1 percent to 32.4 million tons from the 22.9 million tons which

passed through the Canal in fiscal year 1986. The increase was mainly

fueled by a substantial improvement in corn shipments. Corn tonnage

totaled 15.9 million tons, increasing 83.7 percent over the 8.6 million tons shipped via the Canal last year. Nearly 94 percent, or 14.9 million tons, was

U.S. corn shipped to the Far East, with Japan receiving 10.7 million tons
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 7

and South Korea 2.4 million tons. Other components of the grain commodity group showing improvement included soybeans, which rose from 6.8 million tons to 7.8 million tons; wheat, which was up from 3.8 million tons

to 4.5 million tons; and sorghum, which increased from 2.3 million tons to

2.6 million tons. The increased grain tonnage via the Canal reflected an

overall recovery in U.S. grain exports generated by a number of factors,

including the lower value of the dollar, reduced harvests in other major

grain producing nations, and the U.S. Government export enhancement

program.

Petroleum and petroleum products decreased 15.9 percent to 25.9

million long tons in fiscal year 1987. The decline in this commodity group was primarily due to a sharp drop in the crude oil movement, which was down to 9 million tons from 12.9 million tons. This drop reflected reduced

oil flows from diverse sources, particularly Ecuador. On March 5, 1987,

Ecuador was struck by an earthquake which damaged a section of the trans-Ecuadorian pipeline, forcing the country to halt oil exports for about

six months. As a result, Ecuadorian oil exports via the Canal totaled 3.5 million tons this year versus the 5.8 million shipped in 1986. The petroleum

products segment of this commodity group declined to 17.0 million tons from 17.9 million tons, with most of the reductions concentrated in diesel

oil and residual oil shipments.

The nitrates, phosphates and potash commodity group improved significantly to 12.0 million tons from the depressed 9.9 million tons registered

in 1986. Phosphates, which accounted for 54.2 percent of the group, rose

23.7 percent to 6.5 million tons from 5.3 million tons. Over 90 percent of

phosphates moving via the Canal originated in the U.S. East Coast and

were primarily destined for South Korea, Japan and China.

The coal and coke trade continued downward, falling to 7.9 million tons compared with 10.2 million tons in the prior year. Coal exports from the U.S. East Coast accounted for 5.8 million tons, with Taiwan and Japan as the main destinations.

The automobile trade, which generated most of the sharp traffic in- creases of the prior year, continued strong but did not attain further significant gains. The trade, included in the machinery and equipment group,

totaled 2.5 million tons, up slightly from 2.4 million tons. Automobiles

from Japan destined for the U.S. East Coast, accounting for 71.4 percent

of the trade, totaled 1.8 million tons versus 1.7 million tons in 1986. Most other commodity groups, with the exception of ores and metals,

showed increases during the year. Fairly high gains were achieved in a number of trades, including refrigerated foods, lumber and products, and

containerized cargoes. Trade between the East Coast United States and Asia remained the leading trade route in Canal traffic, accounting for 39. 1 percent of total
8 CANAL TRAFFIC

Canal commercial cargo. The cargo tonnage carried by ships on this voyage route totaled 58.1 million long tons, up from 50.6 million tons in the prior year. The following chart and table show the principal commodity groups

moving in oceangoing commercial vessels during fiscal year 1987 and a comparison of the major trade routes in fiscal years 1987 and 1986.

12 CANAL OPERATIONS

One of four massive 750 ton sea gates, removed during the Miraflores Locks overahul, is partially lifted from the water by the floating crane HERCULES to allow workmen to seal closure plates. Lhe gate was then floated and towed in barge-like fashion to the Mt. Hope

Industrial facility for thorough overhaul. Major maintenance efforts such as this are critical to the effective and efficient operation of the Canals lockage system.
Chapter II

CANAL OPERATIONS

Canal operations are comprised of Transit Operations and Maintenance

and Related Canal Projects. The various functions are divided among the operating bureaus within the Canal agency. On October 1, 1986, the Marine Bureau designated several new divisions and units to handle the functions formerly performed by the Navigation Division, which was dis- established on that date. The organizational chart on page VI reflects the present structure of the Marine Bureau. TRANSIT OPERATIONS

Daily average transits by oceangoing vessels increased from the 32.9 per day during fiscal year 1986 to 33.7 per day during fiscal year 1987. Average

time in Canal waters increased from 23.4 hours in fiscal year 1986 to 24.0 hours in fiscal year 1987.

MAINTENANCE AND RELATED CANAL PROJECTS

Maintenance and improvements to the Canal continued at high levels throughout the year. The various divisions and units of the Engineering

and Construction Bureau are generally responsible for the overall physical

maintenance and improvement of the waterway. The Marine Bureau

operates and maintains the locks and related facilities. During the first quarter of the fiscal year, considerable resources, materials and equipment were dedicated toward cleanup of the major landslide

which occurred in Gaillard Cut on October 13, 1986. The slide resulted in approximately one-half million cubic yards of rock, earth and debris flowing into Canal waters. About half of this material was deposited in the shipping lanes, causing a narrowing of the navigable channel in the area of

Gold Hill. All available dredging equipment was immediately stationed in the area to begin removal of the slide material. Given the significance of

the slide, two dredges and related equipment were contracted from a dredging firm in the United States to assist in the removal project. Efforts were

simultaneously undertaken by the Panama Canal Commission to successfully settle unstable areas affected by the slide. Precautionary transit measures temporarily implemented in the interest of navigational safety, were

progressively withdrawn until full channel width and normal Canal

operations were restored on December 23, 1986. From January through September, maintenance dredging of the Pacific

approach channel was completed to restore maximum channel depth. This

project served to remove shoal formations and siltation caused by tidal variations and propellor wash. A similar dredging project is contemplated

for the Atlantic approach channel.

A new miter gate lifting device was designed by the Engineering Division

and built by the Industrial Division to facilitate removal and installation of

miter gates. The device was successfully used during the Miraflores Locks

overhaul, wherein Miter Gates Nos. 120, 121, 122, 123, the tallest and

heaviest gates in the locks system, were removed for rehabilitation at the Mount Hope Industrial Division. A spare set of gates, refurbished six months in advance of the overhaul, were installed in the east lane of

Miraflores Locks while the original gates were reconditioned and shifted to the west lane. The original west lane gates were then rehabilitated and now

serve as spare gates.
16 CANAL OPERATIONS

Several other locks related projects performed during the year involved

the replacement of 6,000 linear feet of fendering at the Pacific Locks,

rehabilitation of a combined total of some 7,500 linear feet of locomotive

tow track, conductor slot and rack sections at all locks, and inspection and

maintenance of rising stem and cylindrical valves. Other significant marine-related maintenance work included major

overhauls of the dipper dredge Christensen, the tugs Harding, Trinidad,

Rousseau and Parfitt, and drum gate No. 3 at Madden Dam.

Major equipment acquisitions in support of Canal operations consisted

of the delivery of five new towing locomotives increasing the total fleet to

80, the dredge tender Chagres which is also capable of assisting with

transits, and four aluminum hull pilot/ linehandler launches Xares, Umbla,

Trucha, and Albacore II. Contracts were awarded for the fabrication of two tractor tugs, the Guia

and Lider, the construction of a tug refueling facility at Miraflores landing,

two locomotive cranes incorporating OSHA standards, and the fabrication and delivery of two locomotive turntables for subsequent installation

at the north approach walls of Gatun and Miraflores locks respectively.

The second generation Marine Traffic Control computer system continued to undergo upgrading to further improve vessel monitoring and

scheduling. This system, as well as other computer systems throughout the Commission, will also benefit from advanced telecommunication capabilities upon installation of a newly acquired telephone exchange system and

fiber optic wiring.

SUPPORTING OPERATIONS

Supporting operations of the Panama Canal Commission provided

essential support services to the operation and maintenance of the water- way and the Agency's facilities, as well as to other U.S. agencies on the Isthmus and to employees and their dependents. These operations included

logistical services, community services, sanitation and grounds management, transportation services, public utilities, fire protection, Canal

protection, health and safety and other employee services. LOGISTICAL SERVICES

The Logistical Support Division provided centralized procurement,

inventory management, warehousing, distribution, contract administration, and supply and property disposal support to Canal operations.

A total of $72.0 million in goods and services were procured during fiscal year 1987, including $24.2 million from sources in Panama. Major contracting obligations included approximately $3.7 million for Bunker "C"

fuel oil for thermoelectric power generation, $4.6 million for light diesel

fuel, $3.5 million for a tractor tugboat, $2.1 million for vehicles, $1.6

million for two towing locomotive turntables, $1.4 million for locomotive

cranes and $1.3 million for a salvage barge.

Approximately $18 million in Commission inventory items were issued

for Commission use, and $21.2 million was obligated for new inventory

purchases during the year. A total inventory of 38,734 line items with an

average cost value of $28.7 million was on hand at year end.

Activities of the Excess Disposal Branch included no-cost transfers to other U.S. Government agencies of excess equipment having an original

acquisition value of approximately $879,225, while surplus property sold

to the Government of Panama at current fair market value amounted to approximately $92,244.

The New Orleans Branch in Louisiana expedited urgent purchases and

19
20 SUPPORTING OPERATIONS

coordinated all Commission cargo shipments from the United States to Panama. Under the coverage of the Military Sealift Command's contract,

12,326 measurement tons of containerized and breakbulk cargo were

shipped to the Port of Balboa. An additional 5,274 measurement tons of

general cargo and vehicles were shipped under commercial contract with an ocean freight shipper from New Orleans to the Republic of Panama.

COMMUNITY SERVICES

The Community Services Division is responsible for managing employee

housing, Commission-owned buildings, a technical resource center

(library) and the employee fitness program for the agency. Other services are provided by the Office of Area Coordination.

The Housing Management Branch utilized Commission and contract

forces to maintain and repair its quarters inventory, with a strong emphasis on safety and security upgrades. The agency continued its multiyear

housing management plan designed to concentrate resources on diminishing housing requirements in selected areas. Implementation of the plan

is intended to utilize remaining housing and related maintenance resources

in the most cost-effective manner, while at the same time preserving optimum housing for eligible employees and meeting ongoing responsibilities

under the Panama Canal Treaty. Under these criteria, 56 housing units located in Balboa, Gamboa and Margarita were transferred to the Government of Panama. By the end of the fiscal year, the Commission

retained 1,573 housing units, representing 37% of the inventory of approximately 4,300 units owned by the Panama Canal Company immediately

prior to entry into force of the Panama Canal Treaty in 1979. The Buildings Management Branch maintains and operates Commission buildings and structures not specifically assigned to other Commission units, a centralized custodial service and the agency's moves and

relocations. This unit was designated as the agency space manager responsible for implementing and managing Executive Order 12411 and other

regulations. The branch managed major renovations at four buildings and

is actively engaged in the implementation of energy conservation

programs.

The Technical Resources Center (library) provided mission-support

information and research to all units of the Commission, other U.S. agencies, the Government of Panama and maintained a collection of library

and three-dimensional materials relating to the history and operation of

the Panama Canal. By September 30, 1987, this unit had relocated from

Building 0610, Ancon, to Building 38, Balboa.

The Employee Fitness Branch provides comprehensive fitness programs

for Commission employees and manages a variety of recreational areas used by employees and their dependents. The branch also provides services

to the Commission such as certifying all job applicants and employees
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 21

required to be proficient in swimming, instructing employees from various

divisions (i.e. Canal Protection, Fire, Dredging, Apprentice School,

Locks, etc.) in basic rescue and water safety, advanced lifesaving, drownproofing, survival floating and water safety instructor's courses. SANITATION AND GROUNDS

Mosquito control and other environmental health measures essential to maintain a high level of health of employees were carried out by the Sanitation Branch. Surveillance and control of biting insects and vermin

capable of transmitting disease were continued, with emphasis on nonchemical control methods such as drainage maintenance in lieu of extensive dispersements of chemical insecticides Some 220 miles of surface water drainage ditches were maintained to eliminate mosquito breeding

around employee work and housing areas. Specialized mosquito control measures continue to be necessary for the prevention of such major insect- borne tropical diseases as malaria, yellow fever, and dengue. Additional

control efforts were directed against cockroaches, houseflies, bats, rats, venomous snakes and other vermin.

Approximately 2,900 acres of improved grounds were maintained within

and around Commission residential areas, buildings, the locks and industrial facilities. Vegetation control was maintained by Grounds Branch

crews along utility line rights-of-way, earthen saddle dams, Gatun Dam,

Canal bank stability drainage systems, and around the perimeters of aids

to navigation towers and targets.

Following the major landslide in Gaillard Cut, referred to on page 15 of

this report, Grounds and Sanitation workers participated in soil stabiliza- tion of the area by dispersing lime on the water saturated soil at the slide

sites. Later, slopes of Gold Hill were planted with 4,700 tree seedlings of

the Gmelina—arborea and Acacia—magniwn species to reforest the area

of the landslide and increase bank stability.

Africanized bee control operations remained stable in FY 1987 with 173

bee swarms and nests destroyed by Commission bee control teams. Four

Africanized bee swarms were removed from transiting ships in FY 1987. TRANSPORTATION SERVICES

The Motor Transportation Division operated and maintained a consolidated motor pool of 884 vehicles designed to meet the vehicular transportation requirements of the Commission. The vehicle fleet in fiscal year 1987 included 633 trucks of various types, 208 passenger- carrying vehicles, and

43 special-purpose vehicles. Vehicle mileage decreased slightly from

7,187,895 miles in fiscal year 1986 to 7,112,193 miles in FY 1987. Fully

equipped shops, including a tire retreading facility and heavy duty repair

shops, provided facilities for overhauls, maintenance and repairs to the Motor Transportation Division fleet and equipment of other Commission

units. In addition, some services were contracted out where they were
22 SUPPORTING OPERATIONS

available in required quantity and quality in Panama. The vehicle inspection facility located within the Motor Transportation Division, Ancon

area garage, also was used by the Government of Panama during the first six months of the fiscal year to conduct inspections of privately-owned

vehicles and by the Motor Transportation Division to perform

Commission vehicle inspections.

PUBLIC UTILITIES AND ENERGY

Panama Canal Commission facilities include electric power generation

and distribution systems, communication systems, water purification and

distribution systems, and a central chilled water air conditioning system

for certain public buildings.

Total Canal area energy demand during fiscal year 1987 was 518 giga- watt hours, a 8.1 percent increase from the 479 gigawatts used last year. The peak hourly demand of 84 megawatts reached on September 28, 1987, was 2.4 percent above the peak of 82 megawatts in the prior year. Agencydirected energy consumption in fiscal year 1987 for electrical power and

fuel, calculated together in Btu's, was reduced a total of 17.9 percent in relation to the fiscal year 1975 baseline established by the Federal Energy

Management Program. Electrical power consumption by the Commission,

76.3 gigawatt hours, was 2.6 percent above the usage levels recorded for comparable operations in fiscal year 1975; fuel consumption, excluding

fuel for power generation, 5.0 million gallons, was 34.9 percent below the corresponding 1975 fiscal year baselines. The water treatment and distribution systems operated by the Commission provide potable water for the Canal area and areas of the Republic

of Panama. The Pacific side system serves the Canal area, portions of

Panama City, and suburban areas; and the separate Atlantic side system

serves the Canal area, portions of Colon, and suburban areas. During

fiscal year 1987, the two systems supplied 3. 1 1 billion cubic feet of potable water to consumers, an increase of about 2.64 percent from the previous

year. Water supplied by the Panama Canal Commission to Panama City

and Colon metropolitan areas amounted to approximately 55.4 million

gallons per day.

FIRE PROTECTION

The Panama Canal Commission Fire Division and the Bomberos,

Republic of Panama, in accordance with the Panama Canal Treaty of

1977, are responsible for providing fire protection, firefighting, and rescue operations in Canal operating areas, defense sites, civilian and military areas of coordination and shipboard firefighting on all vessels in Canal

area waters. The total number of responses for fiscal year 1987 were 5,748 compared

to 5,804 for fiscal year 1986. About 43 percent of the responses for this year were attributable to a marine standby program initiated during the last
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 23

quarter of fiscal year 1985. Under this program, Fire Division personnel

respond with foam apparatus on standby at the locks for certain vessels identified by the Marine Bureau as transporting hazardous or flammable

cargoes, particularly during the critical period when a vessel is entering the

locks. Requests for ambulance service increased from 1,366 last year to 1,476

this year. Bomb threats also increased from 15 last year to 31 this year. Excluding ship fires, there were 517 fires during the year. As in the past, the vast majority of these incidents were grass and brush fires, most fre- quently occurring during the vulnerable dry season period. Additional Fire

Division statistics appear in Table 16 on page 120 of this report.

CANAL PROTECTION

The Canal Protection Division provides operational security for the Panama Canal Commission and plant protection of installations and facilities devoted to the management, operation, and maintenance of the waterway. Security improvements to vital installations and support activities continued throughout the year with site surveys, inspection of facilities and installation of essential security hardware/ systems. Recruitment of

in-service employees into upward mobility program guard positions continued heavy during the year to meet the increased coverage requirements.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

The Occupational Health Division and the Safety Division are components of the Office of Personnel Administration. The Personnel Director is the Designated Agency Safety and Health Official. The Panama

Canal Commission is committed to ensuring a safe and healthful workplace for its employees, an objective which enjoys support from top

management down.

During fiscal year 1987, the Commission experienced 628 performanceof-duty accidents/ illnesses for which employees required medical attention

beyond first aid, as compared to 598 such accidents/ illnesses in fiscal year

1986. The incident rate rose slightly from 7.5 in fiscal year 1986 to 7.9 per

100 employees in fiscal year 1987. There were no fatalities recorded in either fiscal year 1987 or fiscal year 1986. As a means of enhancing safety and health in the Commission workplace during fiscal year 1987, on- and off-Isthmus training was increased,

workplace inspections and evaluations were intensified, ongoing publicity was accomplished, and a safety incentive awards program was revitalized to recognize safe workers and foster positive safety attitudes. A Dive

Safety Board was established to recommend improved safety and technical

standards and procedures in dive operations. Also, controlled alcohol and

drug testing procedures were continued as a means to further ensure a

safe working environment. In addition, the 'certified Safety and Health

Committee continued its active role in the safety and health program.

Chapter IV

ADMINISTRATION AND STAFF

PERSONNEL

FORCE EMPLOYED AND PAYROLL

At the end of fiscal year 1987, the total Isthmian force of the Commission was 8,562 compared to 8,338 employees in fiscal year 1986. Of the

total Isthmian force, 7,561 were permanent and 1,001 temporary. Of the permanent work force, 6,269 (82.9%) were Panamanians, 1,151 (15.2%) were U.S. citizens and 141 (1.9%) were third-country nationals. Nineteen

persons, all U.S. citizens, were employed by the Commission in New

Orleans and Washington, D.C.

The total Commission payroll was $196.2 million in fiscal year 1987

compared to $190.8 million in fiscal year 1986. Of the total Commission

fiscal year 1987 payroll, $133.6 million was paid to non-U. S. citizen employees and $62.6 million to U.S. citizen employees.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM

The new Multi-Year Affirmative Action Plan covering fiscal years 1988

through 1992 for this agency was initiated in fiscal year 1987. The Affirmative Action Accomplishment Report for fiscal year 1987 indicated that the agency met its stated affirmative action goals and exceeded its employment

goal for the severely handicapped.

Formal EO complaints filed remained at the same level as the previous

fiscal year. Under an ongoing educational program, several workshops

were conducted on sexual harassment, and the EEO complaint process.

Special" emphasis program activities included commemorations of National Employ the Handicapped Week, Black History Week, National

Hispanic Heritage Week, and Women's Week. Ongoing monitoring of the

Panamanian Preference Program reflected continued increasing participa25
26 ADMINISTRATION AND STAFF

tion of Panamanian nationals at all levels. At the end of fiscal year 1987,

the composition of the work force by sex and minority group designation was as follows: By sex Male 88.6%

Female 1 1.0% By Minority Group Designation

Hispanics Blacks Whiles Orientals Amer. Ind. 61.7% 23.9% 12.8% 1.3% 0.3% PUBLIC AFFAIRS

The Office of Public Affairs is responsible for handling all public affairs,

guide services and informational activities of the Panama Canal Commission, both locally and internationally. In this connection, through the Commission publication Spillway, local press releases, video tapes, films and exhibits, matters of related interest were disseminated to the work

force and the public at large. The Graphic Branch assisted in the accomplishment of this task by providing a broad range of photographic and

audio-visual support services. Such support included the development of

exhibits for international shipping exhibitions and conferences like Expoship 87 in London and the Seatrade Cruise Shipping Conference in Miami, and audio visual assistance for engagements where key agency

officials served as guest speakers. Similar support was provided for Commission exhibits at the annual regional fair held in David; Expocomer, an

international exhibition held in Panama City; a display commemorating

the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution; and a photographic display

featuring the work of Canal construction day photographer Ernest Hallen.

English and Spanish language press releases, films, video and audio tape

segments were also developed for internal agency use and for distribution

to the press services. The landslide in Gaillard Cut and political events in Panama placed

greater than usual demands on the office to provide local and international

media representatives with information on the Canal under various

formats.

The guide service handled a total of 305,416 visitors at the Canal and

conducted 680 VIP tours. Visitors included representatives of major news

services, officials from various sectors of the shipping industry and

shipping related publications, and government and business officials from

around the world.

OMBUDSMAN

The Office of the Ombudsman was established pursuant to implementing legislation of the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977. The office responds to employees and dependents' complaints, grievances, and requests for
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 27

information; and channels many issues to the proper authorities for processing under existing statutes or administrative regulations. Generally, the Office of the Ombudsman investigates administrative problems, inefficiencies, omissions and policy conflicts existing within the Panama Canal

Commission and other U.S. Government agencies on the Isthmus of

Panama resulting from the Treaty. However, the office provides the widest latitude possible for handling problems affecting employee morale

and the quality of life. During fiscal year 1987, there was marked increase in telephone traffic, particularly during the last quarter. Much of the increase was attributable

to heightened concerns of Canal area employees and residents fueled by

ongoing political unrest in Panama. A "hotline" was activated to more

effectively handle the high volume of calls. A total of 275 cases were processed by the Ombudsman as compared to 264 cases in FY 1986. A number of complaints continue to flow from

the progressive deterioration and lack of maintenance of highways,

streets and railroad crossings within the Canal Area, which are outside the

responsibility of the Panama Canal Commission.

INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

During the past year, contract administration activities continued routinely. Efforts to promote more constructive and harmonious labor rela- tions have resulted in an increased willingness on the part of management

officials to meet with union representatives to discuss changes in the work

place and attempt resolution of disputes without resort to third parties.

The collective bargaining agreement with Local No. 13, International

Association of Firefighters, was extended for an additional year, until April of 1988. The agreement with the Professional Bargaining Unit,

represented by the Maritime/ Metal Trades Council, was extended for

three more years. The Commission was one of several U.S. Federal agencies directly affected by a landmark decision of the Federal Labor Relations Authority

(FLRA) which held that union proposals concerning pay and fringe

benefits are not intrinsically non-negotiable. The FLRA ruled in four

cases involving the Commission that eleven such union proposals were

negotiable. Negotiations are pending.

GENERAL COUNSEL

On December 23, 1985, the President signed into law the Panama Canal

Amendments Act, Public Law 99-209, which authorized the Panama

Canal Commission to settle all vessel-accident claims, regardless of the amount and irrespective of the site of the accident. Prior to the enactment

of this Act, the Commission was precluded from considering claims of more than $120,000 for out-of-locks accidents. At the time of the passage
28 FINANCIAL REPORT

of the Panama Canal Amendments Act, 30 out-of-locks vessel-accident

claims had been filed and were pending, with either the United States Congress or the Commission. Since the enactment of the Amendments

Act, the Commission has steadily reduced this backlog of vessel-accident

claims. By the end of fiscal year 1987, 24 of these claims had been settled,

and $15,702,367 (out of a total of $21,266,200 claimed) had been paid to the aggrieved shipowners.

Two lawsuits for out-of-locks vessel-accident damage were filed before

the passage of the Amendments Act and an additional seven were filed after its enactment. By September 30, 1987, one case had been dismissed by

the Court, while six suits have been settled out of court for a total payment

of $2,084,899.

In fiscal year 1987, one phase of litigation arising from the termination

of a contract for the purchase of a tugboat was successfully completed. The

litigation concerned the Commission's termination for default of a contract with a New England builder for the construction of the tugboat Paz. The contract was terminated in August 1984 when the contractor failed to make timely delivery of the tug. In the ensuing litigation in the Claims

Court, the contractor demanded $1.9 million in damages, and the Canal

Commission counterclaimed for approximately $750,000. The Claims

Court in June 1986 denied the contractor's claim and granted judgement in favor of the Commission on its counterclaim. This decision was affirmed

by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on February 2, 1987.

PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 41 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The Comptroller General of the United States approved the Accounting

Principles and Standards Statement of the Panama Canal Commission in

his letter dated September 14, 1982. A summary of significant accounting

policies follows:

a. Accounting and reporting. As required by section 1311(a) of the Panama Canal Act of 1979 (Public Law 96-70), hereinafter referred to as the Act, the accounts of the Commission are maintained pursuant to the Accounting and Auditing Act of 1950. This requires that the principles,

standards and related requirements be met, as prescribed by the Comptroller General of the United States, after consulting with the Secretary of

the Treasury and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget

concerning their accounting, financial reporting and budgetary needs. The

Accounting and Auditing Act of 1950 also requires that the accounts be

maintained on an accrual basis.

b. Cost recovery. As required by section 1341(e)(1) of the Act, the application of generally accepted accounting principles to the Panama

Canal Commission, a United States Government agency comparable to a

rate-regulated public utility, determines the manner in which costs are recognized. The basis for tolls rates is prescribed in section 1602(b) of the

Act. This section of the Act, known as the "statutory tolls formula,"

provides that:

"Tolls shall be prescribed at rates calculated to produce

revenues to cover as nearly as practicable all costs of maintaining

and operating the Panama Canal, together with the facilities and

appurtenances related thereto, including unrecovered costs incurred on or after the effective date of this Act, interest,

depreciation, payments to the Republic of Panama pursuant to paragraph 5 of Article III and paragraph 4(a) and (b) of Article XIII of the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977, and capital for plant

replacement, expansion, and improvements. Tolls shall not be

prescribed at rates calculated to produce revenues sufficient to cover payments to the Republic of Panama pursuant to para- graph 4(c) of Article XIII of the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977."

Under this statutory tolls formula, any unrecovered costs are to be

recovered from subsequent revenues. The amount for recovery from subsequent revenues is transferred from Invested Capital to an account within

the Other Assets classification. Unrecovered costs are charged back to
42 FINANCIAL REPORT

Invested Capital to the extent subsequent annual revenues exceed annual

costs.

c. Property, plant and equipment. Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, or if acquired from another United States Government

agency, at the value determined by the Director of the Office of Management and Budget. Administrative and other related general expenses are recovered currently and therefore not capitalized. The cost of minor items

of property, plant and equipment is charged to expense as incurred.

d. Advances for capital. A portion of tolls in excess of depreciation

recoveries may be programmed annually by the Board of Directors for plant replacement, expansion, or improvements. In fiscal year 1986, $3.1

million were programmed for this purpose. In fiscal year 1987 no amounts

were programmed. Such funds are considered capital advances from Canal

users. Upon utilization, these advances are amortized through an offset to depreciation expense in an amount calculated to approximate the depreciation on assets acquired with such advances.

e. Depreciation. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated over

their estimated service lives at rates computed using a straight-line method

with additional annual depreciation, identified as composite, to provide

for premature plant retirements.

The recurring costs of dredging the waterway are charged to expense. Non-recurring dredging costs for substantial improvements and bet- terments to the waterway are considered additions to plant and are

capitalized and depreciated over their estimated service lives.

f. Accounts receivable. Uncollectible accounts receivable of the Panama

Canal Commission are recognized as a reduction in revenue when written

off. Any subsequent collections of Commission accounts receivable

previously written off are recorded as revenue.

g. Inventories. Operating materials and supplies are stated at average

cost, plus cost of transportation to the ultimate destination on the Isthmus

of Panama. An allowance has been established to reflect the estimated cost of obsolete and excess stock.

h. Retirement benefits. Employer payments to the contributory United

States Civil Service Retirement System and to the Republic of Panama

Social Security System are charged to expense. The Commission has no

liability for future payments to employees under these systems.

Non-United States citizen employees who retired from predecessor

agencies prior to October 5, 1958, are not covered by the United States

Civil Service Retirement System but do receive benefits under a separate

annuity plan. Payments made under this annuity plan are recorded as a

current year expense. Annual amounts expended were $1.4 million in fiscal year 1987 and fiscal year 1986. The liability of the Commission for future
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 43

annuity payments to these former employees or their eligible widows is reflected in the balance sheet as retirement benefits to certain former

employees of predecessor agencies and an equal amount is recorded as a Deferred charge.

As required by the Act, the Panama Canal Commission is liable for the increase in the unfunded liability of the United States Civil Service

Retirement Fund which is attributable to benefits payable from that fund

to, or on behalf of, employees and their survivors under the early retire- ment provisions of the Act. The annual installment to liquidate the increased liability is determined by the Office of Personnel Management.

i. Reserve for lock overhauls. A reserve is provided through an annual

charge to expense to cover the estimated cost of periodic lock overhauls.

j. Reserve for casualty losses. A reserve is provided through an annual

charge to expense to cover the estimated cost of marine accidents and

other casualty losses.

k. Reserve for floating equipment overhaul. A reserve is provided

through an annual charge to expense to cover the estimated cost of

overhauls to the Commission tugboat fleet.

1. Housing use rights. No monetary value is assigned to the rights

granted to the United States Government by the Republic of Panama to use Canal Area housing transferred to the Government of Panama under

the terms of the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977. The cost to manage,

maintain and provide livability improvements to these quarters is charged

to expense. Rental income is included in other revenues. m. Work injuries compensation benefits. Under provisions of the Act,

the Panama Canal Commission is liable for payment of all benefits due

under the Federal Employees' Compensation Act (FECA) which provides compensation for workplace injuries for eligible employees. The

Commission accounts for these costs on an accrual basis.

2. Plant Valuation Allowances.

At July 1, 1951, certain valuation allowances for property, plant and

equipment transferred from the Panama Canal (agency) to the Panama

Canal Company and the Canal Zone Government were established, to reduce to usable value the costs of the assets transferred. At October 1, 1979, such valuation allowances as were applicable to the assets transferred from the Panama Canal Company and the Canal Zone Government to the Panama Canal Commission were carried forward and are comprised of: (a) $4.7 million at September 30, 1987, and 1986, to reduce to usable value

the cost of property, plant and equipment transferred; (b) $50.9 million at September 30, 1987, and 1986, to offset interest costs imputed for the

original Canal construction period; and (c) $42.3 million at September 30,

1987, and 1986, to offset the cost of defense facilities and suspended con-
44 FINANCIAL REPORT

struction projects, the latter being principally the partial construction of a

third set of locks abandoned in the early part of World War II. Property, plant and equipment offset by valuation allowances, when

fully or partially reactivated, are reinstated by a reduction in the valuation

allowance and by an increase to the non-interest-bearing investment of the United States Government in proportion to the value to the Commission

of the reactivated asset.

3. Cash and Fund Balances.

As of September 30, 1987, the cash and fund balances totaled $94,181,435. Of this total, $91,744,064 represents current unexpended

appropriated funds for operations, capital and the emergency fund, and

$2,437,371 represents postal and trust funds. These funds are deposited:

$87,961,303 in the United States Treasury, $2,717,457 in commercial banks

and $3,502,675 on hand.

As of September 30, 1986, the cash and fund balances totaled $117,985,850. Of this total, $116,143,178 represented unexpended appropriated funds for operations, capital and the emergency fund, and

$1,842,672 represented postal and trust funds. These funds were deposited:

$111,480,204 in the United States Treasury, $2,209,950 in commercial

banks and $4,295,696 on hand.

The unexpended appropriated funds for operations are limited to paying

operating obligations incurred but not yet liquidated. The unexpended

appropriated funds for capital are limited to paying for the acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment.

The emergency fund represents the amount on deposit in the United

States Treasury which is to be used ". . . to defray emergency expenditures and to insure the continuous efficient and safe operation of the Panama Canal when funds appropriated for the operation and

maintenance of the Canal prove insufficient for such purposes. ..."

The postal fund consists of outstanding money orders, postal savings

and interest accrued thereon. This fund will remain available until liquidated. The trust fund primarily includes deposits made by customers

for future tolls and other service payments.

4. Panama Canal Commission Fund.

The Panama Canal Commission Fund as established by the Panama

Canal Act of 1979 (the Act) is made up of receipts deposited in the United

States Treasury less appropriation warrants issued during the fiscal year. The balance in this account, $176.9 million as of September 30, 1987, and

$167.7 million as of September 30, 1986, is available for future

appropriations.
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 45

Section 1302 of the Act provides that all appropriations necessary to operate the Panama Canal shall be issued from the Panama Canal Commission Fund. The appropriations for fiscal year 1980 were issued to the Commission from the General Fund of the United States Treasury. The

status of the amount still owed to the General Fund of the United States Treasury for fiscal year 1980 is as follows:

Millions of Dollars Operating Appropriation $427.2

Capital Appropriation 36.6 $463.8

Repaid to General Fund (07/81) (350.0) Repaid to General Fund (12/82) (28.2) (378.2) Amount owed General Fund of U.S. Treasury as of September 30, 1987 $ 85.6

5. Unrecovered Cost Due From Subsequent Revenues.

Pursuant to the provisions of section 1602(b) of the Panama Canal Act

of 1979 (Public Law 96-70), the net loss from fiscal year 1987 operations of

$0.6 million was deferred as an unearned cost to be recovered from subsequent revenues. Also, in accordance with section 1341(b) (2) of the Act

such unearned costs must be deducted from any future net operating revenue due to the Government of Panama.

6. Net Revenue Payable to Government of Panama.

Based on the provisions of paragraph 4 (c) of Article XIII of the Panama

Canal Treaty, which states that an annual amount of up to $10 million will be paid out of Canal operating revenue to the extent that such revenue exceed expenditures of the Panama Canal Commission, net revenue in the

amount of $2.0 million from fiscal year 1986 operation was payable to the Government of Panama. This net revenue was paid to the Government of

Panama on July 20, 1987.

7. Cost of Work Injuries Compensation.

The Commission administers a self-insured program to compensate

certain employees for death and disability resulting from workplace in- juries or illnesses as set forth in the Federal Employees' Compensation Act

(FECA). All United States citizen employees are eligible for coverage, as are non-United States citizen employees hired prior to October 1, 1979

who elected coverage on that date. As provided by FECA, employees and

certain dependents are beneficiaries for various periods that can extend to

life.The liability and deferred charge recorded in these statements reflect the

net present value of all expected future payments for accidents occurring

prior to October 1, 1987, adjusted for inflation. The gross amount to be
46 FINANCIAL REPORT

recovered from tolls over the remaining life of the Treaty to retire this

liability is $75.6 million.

8. Accounting Changes.

a. Effective in fiscal year 1987, the Commission changed from a cash

basis to an accrual basis in accounting for workmen's injury compensation

costs under the Federal Employees' Compensation Act. To implement this change, the cost of accidents will be expensed as incurred starting in fiscal year 1989. Also beginning in 1989, the unamortized cost of accidents which

occur prior to that year will be amortized to expense over the remaining

life of the Treaty. In fiscal year 1987, the total liability for past accidents was recorded. This change has no impact on the fiscal year 1987 financial

position or operating results of the Commission.

b. Effective with fiscal year 1987 financial statements, advances for

capital will no longer be shown as separate line items on the Statement of

Operations and Non-Interest-Bearing Investment. In prior years, advances

for capital were shown as deductions from tolls and other revenues. This

presentation has been discontinued because those collections represent

direct capital contributions by Canal users and not operating revenues. The fiscal year 1986 presentation was changed to be consistent with fiscal year 1987.

c. Effective January 1, 1986, the Commission implemented a change in the treatment of interest required by enactment of Public Law 99-195 on December 23, 1985 which amended, prospectively, the interest provision of

the Panama Canal Act of 1979. Under the Act as amended, interest on the United States investment in the Panama Canal will be deposited into the General Fund of the United States Treasury as miscellaneous receipts rather than into the Panama Canal Commission Fund. Accordingly, as of

January 1, 1986, interest will no longer reduce the investment base. Interest for fiscal year 1986 amounted to $6,786,828 of which $4,838,299 was de- posited into the General Fund of the United States Treasury in accordance

with the Act, as amended.

d. Public Law 99-209, dated December 23, 1985, amended the Act to authorize the Commission to adjust and pay damages from marine acci- dents which occurred outside the locks where the amount of the claim

exceeded $120,000. The authority under Public Law 99-209 is retroactive

to October 1, 1979. Prior to this amendment, the Commission's authority was limited to those claims for accidents which occurred (i) prior to October 1, 1979, (ii) within the locks after September 30, 1979, or (iii) outside

the locks where the claim was $120,000 or less. Claims exceeding $120,000

for accidents occurring outside the locks were, prior to the amendment,

required to be submitted to Congress for approval and were booked as non-fund liabilities. Beginning in fiscal year 1986, the Commission elimi-
PANAMA CANAL COMMISSION 47

nated the non-fund category of marine accident liabilities and recognized

all these liabilities as funded.

9. Interest-Bearing Investment of the United States Government.

The interest-bearing investment of the United States Government in the Panama Canal is determined based on section 1603(a) of the Act. The

interest-bearing investment of the United States Government at September 30, 1987, and September 30, 1986, was determined as follows:

Millions of Dollars Investment at September 30, 1985 $76.9

Fiscal year 1986 transactions: Disbursements $411.9

Receipts (437.0) Net property transfers (2.0) Net change (27.1 ) Investment at September 30, 1986 49.8

Fiscal year 1987 transactions: Disbursements 456.4

Receipts (441.2) Net property transfers (0.3) Net change 14.9 Investment at September 30, 1987 $64.7

10. Advances for Capital— Transit Booking System Fees. With the approval of the Board of Directors, a system was activated in fiscal year 1983 whereby shippers, for a fee, can make an advance reservation for

vessel transit. This system generated funds of $5.8 million in fiscal year 1987 and $7.4 million in fiscal year 1986. Such funds are considered capital

advances from Canal users. By direction of the Board of Directors, these

fees are set aside for capital improvements. Upon utilization, these advances are amortized through an offset to depreciation expense in an amount

calculated to approximate the depreciation on assets adquired with such

advances.

11. Contingent Liabilities and Commitments.

In addition to recorded liabilities, the estimated maximum contingent

liability which could result from pending claims and lawsuits was $19.6

million at September 30, 1987, and $14.1 million at September 30, 1986. In

the opinion of management and Commission counsel, these pending

claims and lawsuits will be resolved with no material adverse effect on the

financial condition of the agency. Commitments under uncompleted construction contracts and unfilled purchase orders amounted to $40.0 million at September 30, 1987, and

$39.9 million at September 30, 1986. Of these amounts $0.1 million in unfilled purchase orders were prepaid as of September 30, 1987, and 1986.

Cash and negotiable securities of a kind acceptable by the United States Government in the amount of $11.4 million were held by United States depositories designated by the Panama Canal Commission at September 30, 1987, and $8.9 million at September 30, 1986, to guarantee

payment by third parties of their obligations.

The Panama Canal Treaty of 1977, Article XIII, paragraph 4(c), provides that an annual amount of up to $10 million per year be paid to the

Government of Panama out of operating revenues to the extent that such

revenues exceed expenditures. Payment to the Government of Panama is subject to the limitations set forth in section 1341(e) of the Act. In the event operating revenues in any year do not produce a surplus sufficient to cover

this payment, the unpaid balance shall be paid from operating surpluses in future years up to the amount available from these surpluses. As of September 30, 1987, the balance contingently payable to the Government of

Panama amounts to $71.1 million. As of September 30, 1986, the balance

contingently payable to the Government of Panama amounted to $61.1

million.

12. Treaty Impact.

On September 7, 1977, the United States of America and the Republic of

Panama signed the Panama Canal Treaty of 1977. The Treaty provided for the establishment of the Panama Canal Commission on October 1, 1979,

to assume certain operational responsibilities for the Canal until December 31, 1999. When the Treaty terminates on December 31, 1999, the Republic of Panama shall assume total responsibility for the management,

operation, and maintenance of the Panama Canal, which shall be turned over in operating condition and free of liens and debts, except as the two

Parties may otherwise agree. The effects of these long-range requirements

are not considered in the financial statements.

13. Recent Legislation— Public Law 100-203.

Public Law 100-203, converted the Panama Canal Commission from a

special fund agency to a revolving fund agency effective January 1, 1988. This conversion to a revolving fund financial structure is not expected to

result in any major change in the accounting policies and principles of the Commission. In addition to affecting the financial format of the agency,

Public Law 100-203 provides: (a) for reimbursement to the General Fund

of the U.S. Treasury of the $85.6 million balance of the 1980 appropriation

to the Commission, as described in note 4; and (b) for restoring $61.7

million to the interest-bearing investment of the United States Government

in the Panama Canal by transferring interest collections prior to January 1, 1986 to the General Fund of the U.S. Treasury.

1 Includes only commercial vessels of 300 net tons and over, Panama Canal measurement, or of 500 displacement tons and over on vessels paying tolls on displacement basis (dredges, warships, etc.).

2 Includes 8 transits where no registered tonnage was reported. NOTE. —In Canal traffic statistics, foreign naval vessels such as transports, supply ships, tankers, etc., with a measure-ment of 300 net tons (Panama Canal measurement) and over, and vessels of war, dredges,

etc., with a displacement of 500 tons and over, are classified as oceangoing commercial vessels. Statistics on

these vessels, except as related to displace-ment tonnage, have been included in the table above. As

displacement tonnage cannot be combined with net tonnage, the following table shows statistics covering

24 vessels which transited the Canal during fiscal year 1986 and paid tolls on displacement tonnage.
