EPA Clears California’s Rules for Ships to Eliminate At-Berth Emissions

"A divisive regulation aimed at compelling ocean-going vessels (OGV) to plug into shore power at California’s busy ports is set to take effect over the next 30 days after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) granted its approval. In what is a major win for the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the EPA has approved the At-Berth Regulation passed in 2020, which adds auto carriers and tankers as well as additional ports and marine terminals to the emissions control requirements."
