Port of L.A. to Host Clean Truck Concession Agreement Meeting

As its concession agreements with about 1,100 licensed motor carriers near their Sept. 30 expiration date, the Port of Los Angeles plans to discuss the Clean Truck Program 2021 Concession Agreement Update on March 17.

The public will have a chance to make comments at the meeting, which will include a presentation from the port’s environmental management staff about how the POLA Concession Agreement is being developed.

The port has agreements with about 1,100 licensed motor carriers that have to be replaced before they expire. LMCs regularly visiting Los Angeles port terminals have to have a pending or approved concession agreement with the Port of Los Angeles. (The Port of Long Beach has its own motor carrier registration program.)

The meeting will take place at 9 a.m. local time via Zoom. Attendees can register at https://portla.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_0pbsPQdVSomzyZ8ozfDqBg or they can dial in at 888-475-4499, using the Meeting ID 979 6114 9333 and passcode 556860.
