Port Canaveral has again achieved Green Marine re-certification, marking its eighth consecutive recognition for environmental excellence in port operations, according to a press release.

The award was bestowed during the GreenTech2024 environmental conference in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

 “Port Canaveral has long held a high standard of environmental responsibility with our commitment to long-term sustainable goals,” said Capt. John Murray, Port CEO. “This Green Marine re-certification underscores the quality of our environmental program and dedication of our team to best practices in planning, implementation and management of our efforts.”

Port Canaveral is among the 32 seaports in the U.S. and one of three ports in Florida to earn the Green Marine distinction. 

 “Once again, for an eighth consecutive year, the Port is exceeding compliance for all applicable indicators,” said Green Marine President and CEO, David Bolduc. “Port Canaveral is also achieving the highest level 5 for the spill prevention indicator, demonstrating environmental excellence and leadership.” 

Bob Musser, senior director of environmental, who accepted the certification on behalf of Port Canaveral, said: “For eight years, we have actively engaged in this highly valuable program, continuously raising the bar of our environmental performance. Our ultimate aim is to adopt and implement greener practices with each evaluation.”
