Integrating Air Emission Management into Port Planning, Engineering and Construction

In recent years, the impact of port related air emissions has become a major concern of ports, port communities and air quality regulators around the nation. The pressure to reduce port related emissions while also accommodating projected cargo increases is one of the most significant challenges facing U.S. ports today. It is a technological, legal and political challenge. This paper is intended to provide a broad overview of the port air emission issue and how it is changing the business of port planning, engineering, and construction.
