Since June of 2006, the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach took unprecedented joint action to improve air quality in the South Coast Air Basin by introducing the San Pedro Bay Ports Clean Air Action Plan. It was a sweeping agenda that aimed at significantly reducing the health risks posed by air pollution from port related ships, trains, trucks, terminal equipment and harbor craft. It called for a 50% reduction in pollution related to the port industry within 5 years.

Under the Clean Air Action Plan, diesel particulate matter (PM) would be reduced by a total of 1,200 tons a year and nitrogen oxide (NOx) would be reduced by 12,000 tons a year. This would be a huge undertaking for the Ports where more than $260 billion a year in trade and more than 40% of the nation’s containerized cargo moves through to the country’s marketplaces.

CSC Transport Inc, being one of the most creative and innovative of the   drayage trucking companies, didn’t hesitate to upgrade our Fleet. In response to this strong call to reduce emissions from the ports, the company implemented a radical but efficient change to have more 75% of our fleet  compliant of Natural Gas Port Truck Project by 2009 & were became 100% compliant in 2010, now serving the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

The alternative fuel trucks in San Pedro Bay Ports now emit 83% less nitrogen oxide (NOx), no diesel particulate matter (PM) and 23% less greenhouse gases than the cleanest late model year diesel trucks. In addition to our LNG fleet, the company has upgraded the rest of its operation to new state-of-the-art clean diesel technologies.

CSC Transport Inc. accomplished this changes, well ahead of the Ports 5 year plan of energy conservation and environmental sustainability.
