I joined state and regional leaders in Newport Beach to celebrate a "win-win" regional partnership. Newport Harbor will be dredged to improve safety and water quality, and the recycled material will be used in the #POLB's Pier G terminal expansion project.

Congratulations to COSCO on the maiden voyage of the 16,000 TEU Carnation to Long Beach. This ship is the third of three dual methanol-fueled ships. We take pride in welcoming the ship to #POLB. Partners like COSCO are what make the Port of Long Beach the Port of Choice.

I've said it before – 92, 71, 98. These numbers – % drops in emissions of diesel soot, NOx, SOx – represent the Port of Long Beach's commitment to Leading Green. We're sharing the message at the @GPLongBeach today with our Port-sponsored zero-emissions pace car.

The Green Port is moving to new heights and driving to zero! Zero-emissions that is, and we’re close. Our goal is to push 92, 71, & 98 percent reductions of key emissions to 100% and as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Green Port Policy, I am confident we will get there.
