VIPA cannot reopen the seaports without the permission of the U.S. Coast Guard.

We appreciate your patience as these safety assessments are completed as quickly as possible.

VIPA employees should report to work as scheduled and use their ID’s as a curfew pass.  (A curfew is implemented until 8 AM in the St. Thomas/St. John district. The curfew has been lifted on St. Croix.)
