Port of Long Beach's vote to lock in coal exports for another decade

While the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced last week the nation’s first regulation to limit carbon pollution from fossil fueled fired power plants, here in Southern California, the Port of Long Beach has been moving forward to lock in contracts for more than another decade of exporting coal. For procedural reasons, the Port’s decision-making body, the Board of Harbor Commissioners, has to vote on the agreements twice. They voted the first time at the end of May, and is going to hold the second vote on Monday, June 9.
