According to Logistec, five Texas terminals of Logistec Corporation and its US Gulf Coast affiliate, Gulf Stream Marine (GSM), will be certified as part of the Green Marine Environmental Certification Program.
To remind, Green Marine is a voluntary environmental certification program for the North American and now European marine industry that encourages shipowners, ports, terminals, seaway corporations and shipyards to address together key marine environmental issues to reduce their environmental footprint through concrete actions.
Now, GSM’s Corpus Christi, Manchester, Brownsville, Care and Freeport terminals in Texas will be joining Logistec’s 13 other Green Marine certified terminals in Canada and the USA, in efforts to be in line with the company’s commitment to reduce its marine environmental footprint.
Madeleine Paquin, President & CEO of Logistec expressed the company’s goal to reducing the industry’s impact on the environment, adding that “this program is not only well aligned with Logistec’s strategic objectives, it encourages other companies to evaluate ways they too can contribute to a cleaner marine environment and makes us all accountable. We are doing this for our industry today and for future generations.“
