The Homeland Security Department said it was legally impossible under the committee's rules to reconsider its approval without evidence DP World gave false information or withheld vital details from U.S. officials. The 30-day window for the committee to voice objections has ended.

We have foreign registered ships coming into the US every day and no one has voiced concerns. Foreign nationals routinely work on US installations overseas. Before I stick my neck out on this, I would want to know what port facilities are affected, the size of the facilities, where they are located and the arrangements for monitoring and inspection.

I am not believing this! An important decision like this---and it has a thirty day "window" for someone to PROTEST.
Decisions this important, should be open to reconsideration ALWAYS!! Maybe we need to look more closely at the individual making this decision at the HSD. Hopefully, its not Chertoff himself.
