- Vision [1]
- The St. Lawrence Seaway Act of 1954 directs the establishment of the Advisory Board of the Saint Lawrence Seaway Development
Corporation. Its statutory mandated five members are appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate.
The Seaway is a Government corporation, not an agency, and the Board is not the ordinary type of advisory committee, it is
a statutory board that is an inherent part of such a corporation. Although it is advisory in nature, it is the Federal equivalent
to a corporate board.It is important that the Corporation obtain the advice of such a varied group who, in an objective manner,
provide insight on how the Seaway operations affect various sectors of the public and on how its operations may be improved.
