MORE LIGHT FOR LESS MONEY AT CONTAINER TERMINAL

The story behind the installation of lighting at Maher Terminal's new 45-acre expansion at Port Elizabeth, New Jersey which reduced its lighting bill to about one-quarter of its previous total, while providing greatly improved conditions. The stevedoring company chose low-pressure conditions. The stevedoring company chose low-presure sodium (SOX) lamps and luminaires, thereby cutting its lighting costs over a 200-night period to $3,705, compared with $14,483 for a similar period using metal halide lamps.
