PASSPORT SYSTEMS VISITED BY MASSACHUSETTS STATE REPRESENTATIVE WILLIAM GREENE, JR.
Billerica, Mass.—August 27, 2009—Passport Systems, Inc., a developer of next generation cargo screening equipment that can non-intrusively identify the composition and location of materials in cargo containers, was visited today by Massachusetts’ State Representative William G. Greene, Jr. Representative Greene toured Passport’s offices and manufacturing facilities located in Billerica, Massachusetts and observed the progress made by the Company in building a full-scale scanner for cargo inspection at seaports, airports and border crossings. Representative Greene was particularly interested in the new capabilities that Passport’s technology would provide to customs and other authorities to help them rapidly detect nuclear weapons, explosives, and other threats to the Nation’s security as well as controlled substances and other forms of illegal contraband. ![]() Picture: Representative Greene (right) and Robert Ledoux, President and CEO Passport Systems, Inc.
