The Green Flag Incentive Program offers an honorary award for vessels that 100 % comply with speed limits in a zone that extends 20 nautical miles (32 km) around the port. Reducing vessel speed cuts down on fuel-oil consumption, which helps decrease greenhouse gas emissions. According to the Port of Long Beach, if all vessels would follow these guidelines, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) emissions could be reduced by up to 550 tons per year.
