With the addition of the new Tier 4 locomotive, Metro Ports is “operating in lock-step with the Port of Long Beach and their award-winning Clean Air Action Plan,” company President Robert Dickey said.
Terminal operator and stevedoring company Metro Ports has acquired a second Tier 4 locomotive for its Pier G operations at the Port of Long Beach in California.
With the $1.2 million investment, Metro Ports said it expects to reduce air emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM) and reactive organic gas (ROG) by more than 4.5 tons over the next 15 years.
