shorepower -- At-Berth Regulation Workshop - Save the Date of March 25, 2015
Posted: 10 Feb 2015 14:54:05
The California Air Resources Board (ARB/Board) staff asks that you save the date of March 25, 2015 to continue discussion on proposed amendments to the At-Berth Regulation. At the workshop, ARB staff will continue a dialogue on potential concepts for amendments to clarify regulatory requirements and improve implementation. The workshop will be held at the following time and location: Date: Wednesday, March 25, 2014 Time: 1:30 PM – 4:00 PM Cal/EPA Headquarters Building Sierra Hearing Room 1001 I Street, 2nd Floor Sacramento, California 95814 If you have any questions regarding this workshop, please contact Jonathan Foster, Air Resources Engineer, at (916) 327-1512 or shorepower@arb.ca.gov. Background: In December 2007, the Air Resources Board approved the At-Berth (Shorepower) Regulation. The purpose of the regulation is to reduce emissions from diesel auxiliary engines on container ships, passenger ships, and refrigerated-cargo ships while berthing at a California Port. The regulation provides two options to reduce at-berth emissions: 1) turn off auxiliary engines and connect the vessel to some other source of power; or 2) use alternative control technique(s) that achieve equivalent emission reductions. California is in a drought emergency. Visit www.SaveOurH2O.org for water conservation tips.
