Land Acknowledgement

The Native and Indigenous lives are systemically unrecognized in our country,
and we can begin dismantling this by bringing value and honor to the
acknowledgment of first peoples and the lands they originally resided on. The
Land Acknowledgement helps create a culture that centers equity and combats
erasure of Native and Indigenous people. This land acknowledgment is one
small act in the ongoing process of working to be in good relationship with the
land and the people of the land. Below is an example statement to read at the
beginning of meetings and events.

Statement
The Port of Seattle exists on Indigenous land. We acknowledge the ancestral
homelands of those who walked here before us and those who still walk here,
keeping in mind the integrity of this territory where Native peoples identify as
the Duwamish, Suquamish, Snoqualmie, and Puyallup, as well as the tribes of
the Muckleshoot, Tulalip, other Coast Salish peoples, and their descendants. We
are grateful to respectfully live and work as guests on these lands with the Coast
Salish and Native people who call this home. This land acknowledgment is one
small act in the ongoing process of working to be in good relationship with the
land and the people of the land.

Pier 69 is required to have a commute trip reduction plan to keep commuting routes moving and reduce
carbon emissions per the Washington State Commute Trip Reduction law. The Port offers a wide range of
commuter benefits, but is not currently achieving commute trip reduction targets.

SOLID WASTE
Strategies
^t Maximize diversion of common recyclable 
and organic materials
^t Minimize solid waste generation
^t Expand specialized items recycling
^t Enhance communication and education with 
employees and tenants
Emissions: Scope 3
< 1% 
of Port Maritime GHG 
2019 emissions






Tons of garbage generated                    Tons of material diverted
1,3001,300   by the Port and Port tenants      1,1001,100   2019, yielding a waste
in 2019                                       diversion rate of 45%
Nearly 70% of the waste is generated at Shilshole Bay Marina and Fishermen's Terminal. Both campuses are
occupied by tenants and open to the public. The Port has influence, but not direct control, over waste
disposal at these sites.

Charting the Course to Zero: Port of Seattle's Maritime Climate and Air Action Plan, predecisional draft            September 2021 
OGV2
Support domestic and international efforts to phase out emissions from ocean
going vessels. The Port will advocate to strengthen standards and policies at national and
international levels to support the development sustainable maritime fuels and the transition to zero
emission vessel technologies. International policy engagement activities would be complemented by
partnerships to support planning and research, market assessments focused on the Pacific Northwest,
and pilot projects with industry partners.
By 2025
Develop a national and international engagement strategy to advocate for strengthened
standards, sustainable fuels, and the transition to zeroemission oceangoing vessels
Evaluate and align with international decarbonization initiatives
Identify partnerships for policy alignment and amplification, including with industry and
other ports
n s  Conduct a maritime zero carbon energy source assessment to evaluate the status of supply
and delivery options, offtakers, policy and economic drivers, Port roles and other
considerations to advance deployment of energy sources to replace fossil fuels for cruise
A c tio
ships in the Pacific Northwest
Implement the International Association of Ports and Harbors' Cruise Emissions Reporting
Project at the Port and collaborate with cruise lines to maximize participation
By 2030 
Support development of a zeroemission oceangoing vessel demonstration by 2030,
working with governments, industry, and nongovernment organizations
OGV3
Support continual advancements in equipment efficiency and emission reduction
from oceangoing vessels. Until zeroemission vessels are developed, continuous improvement
in vessel efficiency is the best strategy to reduce GHG and DPM emissions. Ship efficiency gains may
occur through improved ship design and operational practices such as slow steaming. The Port will
also coordinate with cruise lines to evaluate a carbon offset program for cruise passengers.
By 2025
Complete Portspecific cruise ship emission research and develop recommendations
Continue to evaluate opportunities to decrease emissions from cruise ships underway
Evaluate the cost and benefits of environmental incentive programs for cruise ships
Develop a crossmedia (e.g., air, noise, water quality, and human health) cruise
n s     environmental strategy for the Port, in partnership with the cruise lines, and implement
early actions
A c tio  Evaluate an optional carbon offset or "Good Traveler" type program for Seattle's
homeport cruise passengers, in coordination with cruise lines
Evaluate emissions impact of slow steaming with the Quiet Sound program (once
implemented)

Charting the Course to Zero: Port of Seattle's Maritime Climate and Air Action Plan, predecisional draft            September 2021 

will cover the year 2021.
Review the 2020 Strategy vision, objectives, and metrics in collaboration with participating
ports. 
As needed
Update the GHG inventory baseline as new data is obtained, additional emissions sources
become relevant, or when new inventory methodologies or emission factors become available.
Update the Plan using new inventory data, progress to date, new targets, new strategies, and
new actions with a longer planning horizon as technology, policy, or funding evolves, or at least
every 5 years.
CONCLUSIONS 
When the Port developed the Northwest Ports Clean Air Strategy with Port of Tacoma and Port of
Vancouver 14 years ago, it was the first international collaborative effort of its kind in the port
community. At the time, the Strategy's aim to put environmental performance above the competitive
interests of the ports was a bold step. Yet, more than a decade later, the Strategy has achieved deep
reductions in air pollution across the ports' shared airshed. Today, climate change is recognized to be
the challenge of our lifetime. At this critical juncture, transformative changes on a global scale are
urgently needed to prevent the most devastating effects of a warming planet, and ports have a key role
to play in this transformation. The Port, along with the 2020 Strategy partners, is committed to phasing
out emissions by 2050, setting a new level of ambition that recognizes the urgency of the climate crisis
and the disproportionate impact of local air pollution on nearport communities.
This Plan charts a course for the Port to advance the vision of the 2020 Strategy. GHG emissions from
Port Maritime Administration sectors  including building and campus energy, fleet vehicles and
equipment, employee commutes, and solid waste  are not declining, despite noteworthy progress in
some areas. Greatly intensified efforts over the coming decade are needed to reduce emissions. For
Maritime Activity sectorsoceangoing vessels (cruise and grain ships), harbor vessels, cargohandling
equipment, trucks, and railGHG and DPM emissions have declined since 2005. However, additional
action is needed to continue the course to zero emissions even as seaportrelated trade is projected to
grow in the coming years. The strategies and actions identified in the Plan can meet the Port's GHG
reduction targets and keep on track to phase out emissions by 2050.
We cannot succeed in our vision alone. The Port has limited influence over the sectors that contribute
the most emissions, and zeroemission pathways for some sectors are yet to be determined. Successful
implementation will require significant collaboration across the port network. It will require the
development and demonstration of new technologies and fuels for maritime applications; investment
from ports, industry, government, and external funders; and regulations and policy incentives to foster
new markets and drive the transition to zeroemission operations. As we embark on this course to 2050,
the Port looks forward to working with other ports, industry, communities, governments, nonprofits,
and other partners to eliminate maritimerelated emissions, create a sustainable, vibrant, and equitable
maritime industry in Seattle, and become the greenest Port in North America.

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
