ASPA Application for TWIC Escort Sponsorship

In accordance with 33 CFR 101.514, all persons requiring unescorted access to restricted Alabama State Port Authority (ASPA or "the Authority") facilities must possess a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) before such access is granted. Persons seeking access to ASPA facilities who do not physically possess a TWIC may only enter ASPA facilities with an ASPA approved TWIC escort as a side-by-side companion. Each designated TWIC escort will be allowed to escort a maximum of five (5) individuals at any one time.

The sponsoring employer making the nomination for TWIC escorts shall submit the application at least (7) days prior to assignment as a TWIC escort. Application shall include a full-size color copy of the TWIC of the nominated employee and certification of training as per 33 CFR 105.215. In addition, the sponsoring employer must certify that the nominated TWIC escort is a full time employee of the company.

In requesting application for TWIC escorts, the sponsoring company assumes all responsibility for each nominated employee to meet the mandated TWIC escorting requirements relating to restricted area access and agrees to assume any liability imposed by competent Federal authorities for failure of such nominated employee to discharge all responsibilities in accordance with all federal law and policy.
