Port of Redwood City Joins Green Marine Program

The Port of Redwood City is the latest port to take part in Green Marine and its environmental certification program.

“It is always exciting to welcome a new participant from California, and the Port of Redwood City is no exception,” said David Bolduc, Green Marine’s executive director. “The port already demonstrates a true commitment to sustainability and will be able to share their valuable experience with our membership network, perhaps starting with community relations as they have notably strengthened their ties and trust with local stakeholders through their environmental stewardship."

The port will offer its data on greenhouse gases and air pollutants, spill prevention and stormwater management and other performance indicators to achieve the certification.

“Serving the Silicon Valley region, the Port of Redwood City is always seeking to advance our global economic vitality while ensuring the most sustainable operations,” said Kristine A. Zortman, the port’s executive director. “Taking part in Green Marine’s rigorous and transparent environmental program is a natural progression of our vision and ambitions.”
