7 Project to improve locks chamber lighting Started in May 2005, completed in June high mast light fixtures were replaced, resulting in an increase in brightness as high as 300% between poles. 107 retractile luminaries installed in Miraflores Locks; 40 in Pedro Miguel; and 132 in Gatun.

8 New Tugboats Eight new tugboats arrived between January 2007 and August Contracted 13 more tugboats, the first tugboat is scheduled to arrive by mid The contract also includes 2 options for 7 additional tugboats each, which will augment the current fleet to 42 tugboats by FY RFP for 2 new tender dredge tugboats in FY 2009, to assist dredging work for the Expansion Program.

9 Second Tie-Up Station North of Pedro Miguel Locks Completed in December additional transits each day, important during fog season.

10 Merry-Go-Round System in Gatun Locks Merry-Go-Round operations with the new turn tables began in October, The gain in throughput, together with the second tieup station in Cartagena will increase capacity by two Panamax transits a day.

11 New Cutter Suction Dredge RFP for new cutter suction dredge which will eventually replace the existing dredge, Mindi.

23 China s Growth Crecimiento del PIB - China Fuente: EIU, Dec 2008 China s GDP Growth?_ UPDATE 1-IMF: lower China growth, unprecedented slowdown Mon Dec 15, :22am EST MADRID, Dec 15 (Reuters) - The IMF could cut its forecast for Chinese 2009 economic growth to around 5 percent in its next revision as the global economy suffers an unprecedented slowdown, IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn said on Monday. In its last forecast released in November, the International Monetary Fund had predicted that China's growth would fall to 8.5 percent in 2009 from 9.7 percent this year. November's forecast for 2009 was 0.8 percentage points lower than the IMF's previous forecast. "We started with China at 11 pct growth, then 8, then 7 then China will probably grow at 5 or 6 percent. The possibility of a global recession is real, we realize something must be done," " said Strauss-Kahn during a conference in the Spanish capital. "We are facing an unprecedented decline in output and we have evidence of substantial uncertainty limiting the effectiveness of some fiscal policy measures," he said. "We anticipate that the gross effect will last some time. We need large and diversified stimulus support that will last longer than one or two quarters." "An adequate level will be around 2 percent of (world) GDP -- $1.2 trillion -- and this may make a sizeable difference and reduce the risk of a damaging global recession," he said. "The good news, with some exceptions, maybe a lot of exceptions, we can see the beginning of the recovery end of 2009, beginning of 2010, but there are a lot of downside risks," he added.
