PHARR, Texas - Each week Pharr International Bridge holds a “virtual” town hall meeting for the international trade community.
The series is called BridgeConnect LIVE. Before the coronavirus pandemic struck, the Pharr International Bridge Board would hold the events once a month. Now, because of social distancing, the events are held via Facebook and held once a week. The series is called “The Effects of COVID-19.”
Part 9 focused on ACE, which stands for Automated Commercial Environment. It is the system through which the trade community reports imports and exports and the Customs and Border Protection determines admissibility.
Part 9 was hosted by Pharr Bridge Deputy Director Fred Brouwen.
The series is being conducted in Spanish.
Here is a promotional flyer for No. 10 in the series:
