tered the now famous words ‘‘Damn the torpedoes!
Full speed ahead!’’.

federate forces surrendered Fort Morgan, giving
control of the last remaining southern port in the
Gulf of Mexico to the Union.

post until after World War II.

Island, 2 miles west of Fort Morgan, was con-
structed in 1850 and guarded the western side of
Mobile Bay with 26 guns.

for General Edmund Pendleton Gaines, who won
lasting fame for his tenacious defense of Fort Erie,

Aaron Burr.

a bombardment of Fort Gaines. The fort was sur-
rendered the next day.

findings:
(1) The City of New York is host to the diplo-

curred more than $21 million dollars in fines and
penalties on more than 200,000 parking tickets
issued by the municipality between 1997 and 2000.
(3) Many of the parking fines were issued due
to safety violations, including the blocking of fire hy-
drants, which put lives of residents of the city in
danger.
(4) The legal doctrine of diplomatic immunity
prohibits the imposition of traditional sanctions to
ensure payment of such parking fines.
(5) Section 545 of Public Law 107–115 pro-
vided that ‘‘an amount equivalent to 110 percent of
the total unpaid fully adjudicated parking fines and

To establish a joint United States-Canada customs inspection pilot project.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MAY 9, 2002

To establish a joint United States-Canada customs inspection

(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-
ings:

tacks in the United States on September 11, 2001,
need to be addressed.

vulnerability of the international bridges and tunnels
along the United States-Canada Border.
(3) It is necessary to ensure that potentially
dangerous vehicles are inspected prior to crossing
those bridges and tunnels, however, currently, these
vehicles are not inspected until after they have
crossed into the United States.
(4) Establishing a joint inspection site would
address these concerns by inspecting vehicles before
they gained access to the infrastructure of inter-
national bridges and tunnels leading into the United
States.
(b) JOINT PILOT PROGRAM.—
(1) IN GENERAL.—The Commissioner of Cus-
toms, in consultation and partnership with the Ca-
nadian Customs Service, shall seek to establish a

cles at the United States-Canada Border.

the pilot program at a bridge or tunnel on the
Northern Border that has high traffic volume, sig-
nificant commercial activity, and has experienced
backups and delays since September 11, 2001.
(3) PILOT
EVALUATION
REPORT.—The Com-
missioner shall prepare and submit a report evalu-
ating the pilot program to the appropriate commit-
tees by September 30, 2003.

Appropriations of the Senate and the Committee on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives.
(c) ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS.—In carrying out
the pilot program, the Commissioner—
(1) shall seek to involve the utilization of joint
customs inspection facilities, inspection and commer-
cial transaction technologies, and personnel, con-
sistent with the agreements that are developed and
implemented between the United States Customs
Service and the Canadian Customs Service; and
(2) shall ensure that the program is carried out
with special sensitivity to sovereignty issues affecting
both countries and is consistent with Canadian laws
and customs.
