Port of SD Fact Sheets

September 2014
Fact Sheet 1 of 6
TRANSPORTATION and LAND USE (T&LU) FACT SHEET
The Port is home to many
diverse land uses and
modes of transportation
that directly and indirectly
contribute to GHG
emissions. Recreational
boating, on-road vehicles
(cars and trucks) and
off-road equipment
(such as cargo handling
equipment and ships)
account for 35% of the
Port’s 2006 baseline
GHG emissions. Lodging,
restaurants, marina
attractions, trains and
other heavy-duty vehicles
also contribute to GHG
emissions.

ENERGY CONSERVATION and EFFICIENCY (EC&E) FACT SHEET
The built environment
is a significant indirect
contributor to GHG
emissions as a result of
the electricity and natural
gas demand in buildings.
Increasing the energy
efficiency of both new
and existing buildings
will result in significant
GHG reductions. The Port
can implement energy
strategies for buildings
and exterior spaces,
which can provide the
opportunity to save
money on utility costs,
improve air quality, and
provide other community
benefits.

STRATEGIES and ACTIONS (EC&E)
EB REDUCE BUILDING ENERGY USE
EB1 Green building standards for new construction are under development and will
likely include measures EL1 , EB3, and elements of SW3, WR1 and EB7.
EB2 Establish green building standards and/or policy for existing buildings.
EB3 This measure (energy efficiency performance standards) will be included in the
development of green building standards (EB1 and EB2).
EB4
No-cost energy audits and energy efficiency education are offered through
the Green Business Network to encourage the retrofit of existing buildings to
reduce energy use.
EB5
The Green Business Network provides education and outreach to Port
businesses to increase understanding and awareness of energy efficiency
funding opportunities.
EB6
The Green Business Network provides free energy audits to Port businesses
and assists in accessing funding programs and other incentives to install energy
efficient lighting and other building retrofits.
EB7
Enforce the requirements of AB1103 requiring owners of nonresidential
buildings in CA to measure and report to the California Energy Commission
the building’s energy use via U.S. EPA Energy Star Portfolio Manager and
disclose the information to prospective buyers, lessees, and lenders.
EH REDUCE HEAT GAIN AND INCREASE SHADING
EH1
Adopt a Heat Island Mitigation Plan that uses cool roofs, cool pavements,
and strategically placed shade trees, and actively inspect and enforce state
requirements for cool roofs on non-residential re-roofing projects.
EH2
Urban Forestry Management: Develop an Urban Forestry Program to
consolidate policies and ordinances regarding tree planting, maintenance, and
removal, including: comprehensive inventory and analysis of the urban forest,
tree-planting target and schedule to support goals of the California Climate
Action Team to plant 5 million trees in urban areas by 2020.
Establish guidelines for tree planting (deciduous vs. evergreen, low-VOC-
producing trees, drought-tolerant native trees and vegetation).

PROGRAMS AND POLICIES
SW1
22 Big Belly solar trash/recycling compactors were installed in parks and open
spaces at the Port in partnership with the City of San Diego. 27 tons of waste
were recycled from Port operations, diverting valuable, reusable resources from
the landfill; This is equivalent to the waste produced by 33 families in a year.
SW2 Adopt a Construction and Demolition Recycling Ordinance.
SW3 Develop a policy to reduce the generation of solid waste.
Waste-related GHG
emissions result from
transporting the waste
to landfills and from the
material as it breaks
down in landfills. Main
contributors to waste
generation include
lodging, restaurants, and
Port-operated warehouse
activities. The Port can
reduce waste-related GHG
emissions by promoting
changes in behavior that
encourage conserving
resources, re-use and
recycling.

Water Conservation
and Recycling actions
The movement,
treatment, heating and
cooling of water all
require energy (both
natural gas and electricity
consumption) and result
in GHG emissions. Nearly
20% of the state’s energy
use is consumed in the
transportation and use
of water. Shipbuilding,
industrial tenants and
lodging account for a large
portion of water use. By
conserving, treating and
re-using water, Port users
can minimize emissions
and conserve a scarce
resource.

contribute significantly
to meeting the Port’s
GHG reduction goals.
The Port can help meet
energy demands through
on-site, distributed
renewable energy
generation. Alternative
