Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement

The Maritime Administration (MARAD) announces establishment of the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA), pursuant to provision of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended. The purpose of the VISA is to make intermodal shipping services/systems, including ships, ships' space, intermodal equipment and related management services, available to the Department of Defense as required to support the emergency deployment and sustainment of U.S. military forces. This is to be accomplished through cooperation among the maritime industry, the Department of Transportation and the Department of Defense.
