Port of Los Angeles honors 30 shipping lines for VSRP participation

The Port of Los Angeles recently recognized 30 shipping lines for their participation in the Vessel Speed Reduction Program, the Port’s air quality and annual incentive program for vessel operators who reduce their speed within 20 and 40 nautical miles (nm) of Los Angeles Harbor. In 2024, the port-wide voluntary participation rate was 97% at 20 nm, and 95% at 40 nm – demonstrating just how close we are to our ultimate goal of 100%. The Port’s commitment to a cleaner environment remains a top priority, and achieving our environmental targets could not be done without our customers’ outstanding participation and cooperation, which last year alone contributed to the reduction of 31,117 tons of carbon dioxide. https://portofla.org/vsrp
