comprehensive approach to maritime climate and clean air action Vision to be zero- 2020 Northwest Ports Clean Air emission by 2050 with Strategy objectives shared by Northwest Ports Maritime Climate and Air Port of Seattle's Action Plan Implementation Plan for the next 10 years Clean Energy Strategic Plan Early implementation action for Port of Seattle Projects and programs to To be identified through support zero emission energy strategic planning transition process, ongoing community and industry engagement 3 Timeline for 2020 NWPCAS adoption and early implementation February-March 2021: The final 2020 NWPCAS will be presented to the Northwest Seaport Alliance Managing Members in two readings in February and March, and adopted through a dual action by the homeports and one resolution; Port of Vancouver on similar schedule April 2021: Present final Maritime Climate and Air Action Plan to Port of Seattle Commission, Port of Seattle's implementation plan for the 2020 NWPCAS Begin implementation; report annually on progress 2022: Complete the Seattle Waterfront Clean Energy Strategic Plan 4 25+ perspectives shaped the 2020 Strategy 3 Engagement workshops: summer 2019, spring

timelines: the need for emissions and interest urgent action vs. concern in collaboration with cost and readiness of zero-emission technology Vision must be Maintain strong measurable and engagement consistent with latest through Clarify role of ports climate science implementation 6 New vision recognizes urgency, aligns with latest climate science Phase out emissions from seaport-related activities by 2050, supporting cleaner air for our local communities and fulfilling our shared responsibility to help limit global temperature rise to 1.5C. 1,749,194 metric tons GHG The four ports

programs that By 2030, install shore power at all major By 2050, adopt zero-emission promote equipment cruise and container berths cargo-handling equipment, harbor efficiency, phase out old high- By 2030, sufficient infrastructure is in vessels trucks, and on-terminal rail emitting equipment, and place to enable transition to zero-emission support lower emission By 2050, port authorities have cargo-handling equipment, trucks, harbor interim fuels (ongoing) adopted zero-emissions vessels, and on-terminal rail vehicles, equipment, and vessel Continually increase By 2030, port authority passenger fleets fleets efficiency in port authority are zero-emissions vehicles or use fleets, facilities, and lighting By 2050, zero-emission buildings renewable fuels (ongoing) and high-efficiency lighting are in place Support international efforts toward phasing out emissions from ocean-going vessels (ongoing) 8 94% of the Port's climate emissions come from maritime activity 2019 Port of

Waterfront Clean Energy Strategic Plan Update green lease terms and incorporate into all new and renewed landside leases Advocate for local, state, and federal policy and funding that supports climate action Engage with community, industry, and government 10 Implementation will prioritize transparency and sustainable, costeffective, and equitable Shilshole outcomes Tools to prioritize implementation: MIC Sustainable Evaluation Framework FT Cost-benefit analyses T91 Port of Seattle's Equity Index T86 Continuous improvement of emissions data P69 Ongoing engagement and collaboration throughout P66 implementation T46 Washington T30 Environmental Health T5 T18 Disparities Map MM Compares communities across the state for environmental health disparities 11 Waterside Strategies: focus on shore power, research, and demonstration Ocean-Going Vessels and Harbor Vessels (tugs, fishing, commercial, recreational vessels) Shore power: Install shore power at Pier 66 by 2023, achieving NWPCAS objective early Reach 100% shore power-equipped calls and 100% connection rate by 2030 Research: Complete Port of Seattlespecific cruise ship emission research and a cruise environmental strategy Participate in development of IAPH at-berth cruise reporting Evaluate emissions benefits of slow steaming with the Quiet Sound program Demonstration: Work with governments, industry, and NGOs to support development and demonstration of a zeroemission oceangoing vessel and harbor vessel by 2030 Demonstrate zeroemission outboard engines in Portowned vessel fleets and communicate results 12 Landside Strategies: focus on engagement, research, demonstration, advocacy Cargo-Handling Equipment, Cruise/Fishing Trucks and Buses, On-Terminal Rail Industry engagement: Engage Port tenants to begin planning and designing infrastructure to support zero-emission cargo-handling equipment and on-terminal rail Engage commercial fishing and cruise trucking industry to discuss truck fleet needs and opportunities for alternative fuels or zeroemission technology Work with Port tenants to accelerate replacement of unregulated switcher locomotives for near or zero-emission alternatives Research: Evaluate environmental incentive programs to accelerate Port tenant and customer cargo-handling equipment upgrades or low carbon fuel use Research and develop strategies to reduce emissions from passenger ground transportation serving cruise terminals Demonstration: Collaborate with terminal operators and fishing operations to assess the feasibility and demonstrate zero emissions equipment, trucks, and buses Advocacy: Explore opportunities to advocate for regulatory changes that reduce emissions from Class I Railroads. 13 Port Administration Strategies: focus on reducing energy and fuel use, shifting from fossil energy, leveraging carbon sequestration opportunities Eliminate fossil natural gas in portmanaged properties by 2030 Transition port-owned fleet vehicles to electric vehicles or renewable fuel by 2030 Encourage use of flexible work arrangements Maximize diversion of recyclable and organic material and minimize solid waste
