Port's 2007 Air Emissions Inventory Shows Encouraging Declines in Port-related Air Pollution
Despite only a one-percent drop in cargo volumes from 2006 to 2007, air pollution from cargo-related operations at the Port of Los Angeles during 2007 dropped markedly in key pollutant categories, according to the Port’s 2007 Inventory of Air Emissions. Port officials attribute the emissions reduction to the use of cleaner fuels in cargo ships (mandated by a 2007 California Air Resources Board rule) as well as truck-related idle reduction and clean fuel measures implemented as part of the San Pedro Bay Ports Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP). The CAAP was approved in November 2006 by the Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbor Commissions.
