Crowley Maritime Announces Major Restructuring Following nearly a year of plan- ning and preparation, Crowley Mari- time Corporation of Oakland, Calif., has completed the restructuring of its organization, separating its busi- nesses into two major operating units. Effective August 1, Crowley's liner services businesses are being con- ducted by Crowley American Trans- port, Inc., and all marine contract services are being conducted by Crowley Marine Services, Inc. The two companies are direct subsidiar- ies of Crowley Maritime Corpora- tion, which now operates as a hold- ing company. In his formal announcement, Crowley Maritime Corporation Holding Company president and COO, James B. Rettig said, "The separation of Crowley's liner ser- vices business from its contract ser- vices business reflects the different operational requirements, risks, markets, financing needs and cus- tomers of these businesses, and will increase the market concentration and operational efficiency of each." Crowley American Transport (C.A.T.), under the leadership of president James J. Carey II, pro- vides liner services between the U.S., Central America, South America and the Caribbean. before yon meet the Coast Guard!

J.-based Sea-Land Ser- vice, Inc., has joined an interna- tional consortium that proposes to build a container terminal on Telfers Island, Cristobal, Panama, and mod- ernize Panama's freight transporta- tion network. The $600-million project was recently presented to the Panamanian government for review. Under the plan, Sea-Land would operate the five-berth Telfers Island terminal that would be used by ships serving the Panamanian market and Colon Free-Trade Zone, and act as a transshipment center for boxes bound for the Caribbean and Latin America. The Panama Transshipment Cen- ter (PTC) Consortium, which con- sists of 11 construction, engineering and investment companies from Europe, the U.S., Japan and Panama, would also carry out major improvements to Panama's highway and rail infrastructure. Evergreen Group of Taiwan has also proposed a $30 million Telfer Island container terminal that it has decided to make available to all shipping lines, placing it in direct competition with the PTC Consortium's complex. The consor- tium had hoped that Evergreen's terminal would only be used by that company's fleet. Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
