Environmental challenges with Marine Transportation

Environmental Challenges Noise NOx, SOx, CO2, Particulate Matter Dust CFC’S Cargo Hold Residues Toxic Metals Particles and oily water Garbage Antifouling paint Sewage Ballast Water Speed Ship Recycling Ligh t VOC Paint Halon

11 Environmental Challenges  Dust, noise, light & odour  Sewage / waste  Storm water runoff  Air emissions  Cargo residue  Dredging and sediments

Environmental Opportunities in Marine Transportation

Fewer emissions / better air quality Less fuel consumption Fewer accidents and less highway congestion Efficient and Environmentally Friendly!

15 Environmental Advantages  One ship carries as much cargo as 1000 trucks  Marine emissions 30% less than rail / 800 times less than trucks  Significantly fewer accidents & spills than trucks or trains

Sustainability Efforts in Marine Transportation

17 Green Marine Program  A voluntary, industry sustainability initiative  Great Lakes & St. Lawrence region  45 companies participating and growing  Goals:  Strengthen environmental performance  Build strong relations with all stakeholders  Improve awareness

18 Green Marine Program

New communications initiative

Key messages -  We deliver critical cost efficiency to many major industries  We already deliver environmental benefits, like GHG performance, and  We are committed to delivering further environmental improvements

21 Economic impact Great Lakes shipping -  Saves shippers $2.7 billion annually compared to using alternate modes of transport  Provides 150,000 jobs in US & Canada  Serves 50% of US manufacturing capability located within 8 GL states.

Trends in Marine Transportation

23 Marine Highways Shortsea Shipping  Optimize the strengths of each mode  Benefits:  Reduce road congestion  Reduce GHG emissions  Reduce infrastructure costs  Improve safety  Support trade growth  Eliminate obstacles to shortsea shipping (i.e. HMT)
