Discussion w/Vice Admiral Kevin Lunday

October 10, 2023 @ 12:00 pm 2:00 pm EDT

Please join BENS for a luncheon conversation with Vice Adm. Kevin E. Lunday, US Coast Guard Atlantic Area Commander. We will discuss the Coast Guard’s strategic priorities and how they play out daily in the Atlantic Area, which oversees the transit of 58% of imports and 82% of total US maritime commerce through its ports.

Vice Adm. Lunday is responsible for directing Coast Guard forces and operations across all mission areas within a geographic region spanning from the Rocky Mountains to the Arabian Gulf and encompassing 40 states and their inland waterways. On an average day, Atlantic Area forces respond to more than 30 search and rescue operations, save more than $90,000 worth of property, respond to 20 pollution spills, interdict 5 migrants, seize 386kg of cocaine, and board 115 recreational vessels.
