The Northwest Seaport Alliance’s 2024 application to the Maritime Administration’s Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) proposes a set of improvements to Pierce County Terminal at the Port of Tacoma that will make the cargo terminal more energy efficient, expand reefer capacity, and modernize the transfer zone to allow the terminal to operate more cost-effectively. The Project consists of three components: 1) Converting all lighting on the terminal to energy efficient LED lights; 2) Installing reefers on racks and power infrastructure to accommodate 198 additional refrigerated containers; and 3) Rebuilding the terminal’s transfer zone.
