加州七个港口获逾10亿美元联邦拨款:洛杉矶港4.12亿美元居全国之首

位于加利福尼亚州萨克拉门托的州长办公室10月29日宣布,美国环境保护署当天公布联邦「清洁港口计划」拨款结果,加州七个港口共获得逾10亿美元,用于建设零排放基础设施、更新装卸设备并改善港区空气质量。加州所得约占当天全国公布总额的三分之一。
七个港口中,洛杉矶港获4.1169亿美元,为全国单笔最大的清洁港口拨款,将用于推动港区作业向零排放转型、部署零排放货物装卸设备并扩建电动车充电设施。奥克兰港获3.2217亿美元,斯托克顿港获1.1047亿美元,圣迭戈港获5,860万美元,旧金山港获5,539万美元,怀尼米港获4,229万美元,红木城港获197万美元。旧金山港的项目将把港区渡轮运营转为零排放,预计减少45.5万吨二氧化碳排放。
州长 Gavin Newsom 表示,在拜登—哈里斯政府与加州国会代表团的历史性支持下,加州港口正快速向零排放转型,更清洁的港口意味着全州各社区更清洁的空气,这对作为世界第五大经济体支柱的港口是重大利好。州长办公室指出,加州港口承担全美约40%的集装箱进口与30%的出口。
Seven California Ports Win More Than $1 Billion in Federal Grants: Port of Los Angeles Gets $411.69 Million, the Nation's Largest
The Governor's Office in Sacramento, California, announced on October 29 that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency had awarded more than $1 billion under the federal Clean Ports Program to seven California ports, to build zero-emission infrastructure, deploy cleaner cargo-handling equipment and improve air quality around the ports. California received about a third of the total funding announced nationwide that day.
The Port of Los Angeles received $411.69 million, the nation's largest clean ports grant, to accelerate its shift to zero-emission on-terminal operations, deploy zero-emission cargo handling equipment and expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The Port of Oakland received $322.17 million, the Port of Stockton $110.47 million, the Port of San Diego $58.6 million, the Port of San Francisco $55.39 million, the Port of Hueneme $42.29 million and the Port of Redwood City $1.97 million. San Francisco's project will transition its ferry operations to zero emissions, removing an estimated 455,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide.
Governor Gavin Newsom said that with historic support from the Biden-Harris Administration and California's congressional leaders, the state's ports are undergoing a rapid transition to zero emissions, and that cleaner ports mean cleaner air for communities up and down the state. The Governor's Office noted that California ports handle about 40 percent of the nation's containerized imports and 30 percent of America's exports.
