Æ
CERES
Takes
the
ENVIRONMENT
Seriously
Like most Port of Baltimore businesses, Ceres Marine Terminals is going green.
Ceres has had a corporate environmental program in place for many years now, and
continually looks for more efficient ways to go green and also encourage customers
to do so.
Besides using ultra low-sulphur diesel fuel in all their equipment, Ceres has
a no-idling program, whereby equipment engines are turned off after just a few
minutes. Ceres’ yard hustlers have been retrofitted to lessen emissions; all new
diesel equipment purchases must be Tier 3 compliant. “We track use of electric, fuel,
oil and transmission fluid and send all used fluids to be recycled,” Wade said. “Also
paper, plastic, aluminum and glass are recycled.”
A new bathroom going into the Ceres terminal office at Dundalk Marine Terminal
will help in eliminating a significant amount of paper waste, use low-water-
use toilets and automatic faucets. Even the hand dryers will use 90 percent less
electricity than is standard.
