The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued a press release announcing that DHS Secretary Tom Ridge and Mexico's Secretary of the Interior Santiago Creel have agreed on significant border safety and security initiatives in bilateral meetings in Mexico City.
According to the release, these agreements will preserve the free flow of $630 million in trade across the U.S./Mexico border every day, while maintaining the integrity of the border.
"We are dedicated to one goal: to protect the American and Mexican people from the threat of terrorism," said Secretary Ridge following the meeting.
One of the agreements that developed from the meetings was on the further expansion of the Free and Secure Trade (FAST) program, which is designed to enhance the security and safety of the commercial flow of goods along the Southern border while facilitating the economic prosperity of both countries. Ridge and Creel announced that they plan to establish FAST lanes at five additional land ports of entry this year: Pharr, TX; Brownsville, TX;Calexico, CA; Otay Mesa, CA; and Nogales, AZ.
"Companies using FAST lanes agree to rigorous inspections of their plants, warehouses and employees as well as to safety procedures, including special container seals that ensure the integrity of the cargo and eliminate vulnerabilities. In exchange, participating companies receive fast electronic processing and reduced inspections," the DHS release noted.

ULTRAVISION TO DEPLOY NAVINI NETWORKS' WIRELESS BROADBAND SOLUTION IN PUEBLA MEXICO
Ultravisión, S.A. de C.V., the most widely deployed MMDS television operator in Mexico, announced its intent to begin commercially deploying a Non-Line-of-Sight wide-area wireless broadband network using equipment from Navini Networks.
Ultravisión, which provides TV programming in 44 metro markets within nine states in Mexico, covering more than 13 million people, will commercially deploy Navini's 2.6 GHz MMDS technology. The initial deployment will cover approximately 334,960 households in Puebla, San Andres Cholula and San Pedro Cholula and will soon expand to other towns in the area. Puebla, about 60 miles southeast of Mexico City, is the 4th largest city in Mexico, and is world renowned for its milling, textiles, exquisitely decorated pottery and tiles, and for the architectural beauty of its buildings.
With this technology, Ultravisión can offer their customers high speed Internet access that is comparable to T-1, DSL or cable modern service. The technology is plug-and-play, requiring no external antenna, and is portable throughout the coverage area.
Ultravisión has a great vision for Mexico: to bring broadband services to areas where there is little or no reliable high speed Internet access today.
