2 2 Highway and Motor Carrier  Hazmat Truck Security Pilot (Jan. 05 – Dec. 07) Objectives  Identify, test, and evaluate technologically different tracking solutions (50 states) commercially available  Prototype centralized truck tracking center  Non-proprietary universal interface between tracking systems and a tracking center  Feasibility of utilizing a universal interface between a truck tracking center and a government intelligence operations center  Independent evaluation of tracking center, interface, and feasibility study.

3 3 Highway and Motor Carrier The HAZMAT Truck Security Pilot was a congressionally mandated pilot project to design and build a centralized truck tracking center capability. TSA developed a set of protocols capable of interfacing with existing truck tracking systems. The desired outcome was to test the feasibility of a centralized truck tracking center and capability that allowed TSA to continually track truck locations and HAZMAT load types in all 50 states and to receive exception based events.
