Lineage Logistics has been recognized by the Port of Seattle with a Sustainable Century Award for its environmental leadership and partnership in helping the Port achieve its environmental stewardship, sustainability and equity goals.
Lineage, a longtime business partner of the Port and recipient of the 2022 Maritime Sustainable Century Award for Environmental Performance, operates the seven-building Seattle Garfield facility on Pier 91 in Seattle, Washington. Over the past year, site leaders have implemented significant sustainability initiatives across facilities resulting in a direct, measurable environmental benefit.
The Port of Seattle recognized Lineage for investments in energy savings. These efforts include:
- Implementing LED lighting, new control technology and motion sensors throughout buildings 391 and 392 to reduce the percentage of light output when not occupied
-
Installation of three high-speed, roll-up doors in the freezer area of building 390 to minimize how long doors stay open when forklifts are moving between the docks and freezer to drive energy efficiency
-
Replacing rail doors in buildings 390 and 391 with heavily insulated doors; the new rail dock doors help conserve energy by reducing heat transfer from the freezer
-
Installation of variable frequency drives that allow the existing electric compressors to operate more efficiently
-
Installation of two new evaporators with energy-efficient technology and variable frequency drives that control the fan motor speed
-
Installation of four new electric HVAC units to replace natural gas units
-
Working with Geosyntec on its Storm Water Prevention Plan to help drive efficiencies and reduce environmental impact
