3. 3 Environment/Challenges  The CBSA port infrastructure is suffering from rust-out and building fatigue;  Since 2000 the Agency has invested over $300M to modernize and improve the infrastructure at ports of entry across Canada  Investment has been focused on the large volume ports of entry with an emphasis on the Designated Commercial Offices (DCO);  The majority of the CBSA’s larger DCO ports have been, or are in the process of being redeveloped and are functional and provide adequate serviceability;  The CBSA has targeted 77 other POEs for modernization/replacement in the near to mid term (5-10 years)  The challenge is to sustain the operational integrity of the existing facilities while securing the capital resources required to address those facilities that can no longer efficiently and effectively support the CBSA’s border services mandate.

9. 9 Moving Forward  The provision of effective and efficient Port of Entry inspection facilities is essential to supporting the CBSA’s commitment to modern border management;  The Agency is aggressively exploring options that will allow for an acceleration in the pace of border infrastructure modernization and replacement projects;  The CBSA has developed 3 standard POE templates that will provide a consistent standardized approach to port replacement projects: o Micro port design that was developed under the Small Port Infrastructure Replacement Initiative; o Small Port design that was used at the recently completed POE projects at Goodland, Lyleton and Coulter; and o Medium and Large port design that has been used at St. Stephen, Prescott, Kingsgate and Aldergrove.  The Agency will continue to use forums such as the TBWG to share experiences and seek input from our stakeholder community.
