Posted: 25 Feb 2013 14:52:17
The Shorepower website has been updated with new forms and information for the At-Berth Regulation. The website can still be found at www.arb.ca.gov/ports/shorepower/shorepower.htm. The updated pages can be found on the left side of the page under program links and include: Background, Forms and Tools, Frequently Asked Questions, and Photos. Terminal Plan and Vessel Plan updates are both due July 1, 2013. Forms for these plans are available on the Forms and Tools page: http://www.arb.ca.gov/ports/shorepower/forms/forms.htm If you have any questions regarding this program, 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.
