Port of Oakland

Starting in 1997, the Port undertook a major expansion and since then the emissions have doubled. The West Oakland Neighbors Association filed a lawsuit on behalf of West Oakland residents against the Port regarding the increased pollution. Terms of a settlement require the Port to set aside $2 million to purchase new, cleaner trucks for drivers to mitigate overall emissions. (Mar-19-06) [CBS 5 NEWS]
