COLBECK & CLARKE INC., Canada, again approved participant of the Air Cargo Security (ACS) Program

As part of the Canadian government’s ongoing effort to improve air cargo security, the Air Cargo Security Program was put in place to mitigate the risks to airline passengers as a result of breaches in cargo security. Colbeck & Clarke has been actively involved in the program since its inception in 2005 and believes quite strongly in doing their part to make airline travel safer on a global basis. This includes maintaining a secure cargo facility and aligning only with respected industry partners and secure shippers. Maintaining these high standards is key and all Colbeck & Clarke Inc. team members are fully trained and compliant with the current Transport Canada regulations.

The specific requirements of the Air Cargo Security program are as follows:

require air carriers to secure all air cargo before loading onto the aircraft to the same level of security as that for passenger baggage;
recognize technological and other screening processes as acceptable ways to screen air cargo;
detail performance standards for screening equipment, cargo screeners and their training, and supply chain system operations;
formalize supply chain security requirements for those handling air cargo from the time cargo is accepted until it is loaded into aircraft; and
provide for adding specific measures for all-cargo flights.
On June 10th, 2015, an audit and inspection of Colbeck & Clarke Inc. facilities was conducted by Transport Canada and their renewal in the program was granted. Colbeck & Clarks Inc.’s approved participant (AP) status is granted as Colbeck & Clarke Inc. exceeds the security regulations set forth by Transport Canada.
