Press-Telegram - Port workers give biometric data for access

Kurt Alvarado, Marine Terminal Supervisor for ConocoPhillips, is fingerprinted as he applies for an ID card from the Department of Homeland Security's Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC)credential program in Long Beach, Calif. on Wednesday, December 12, 2007. The program's goal is to ensure that any individual who has unescorted access to secure areas of port facilities and vessels has received a thorough background check and does not pose a threat to security.The Ports of L.A./Long Beach are two of the first 25 ports in the nation to begin enrolling applicants for the TWIC.
