 | | | Clean Trucks Port Reduces Truck Pollution by 90%
 The Port of Long Beach's ambitious Clean Trucks Program has reduced air pollution from harbor trucks by more than 90 percent in a little over three years.
In 2012, the program banned permanently the last remaining older, more polluting trucks from Port terminals. Today, virtually all of the 11,000 drayage trucks servicing the Port terminals are 2007 or newer models.
