Plans call for building a 5-acre marine oil terminal with a new wharf at Berth 408, along with a pair of 250,000-barrel storage tanks. A pipeline extending to Terminal Island will connect to 14 additional 250,000-barrel storage tanks on a 47.7-acre tank farm.
The facility's total storage capacity will be 4 million barrels of oil, representing about one-third of Southern California's existing demand for crude oil.
The Board of Harbor Commissioners also awarded a pair of construction contracts for port projects.
A $130 million contract was awarded to the joint venture of Griffith Co. and the Dutra Group to build the Cabrillo Way Marina. Plans call floating docks with 700 boat slips, 400 land-side boat storage spaces, restrooms, showers, parking lots and a launching facility.
The project, set for completion in June 2011, will replace the existing marina and be the first new recreational marina built in 22 years at the Port of Los Angeles.
The harbor commission awarded an additional $57 million contract to Griffith Co. to build a 30-acre green buffer area that will separate the community of Wilmington from the TraPac terminal's expansion area. The area is bounded by Harry Bridges Boulevard to the south, Figueroa Street to the west, C Street
to the north and Lagoon Street to the east.
The project, set for completion in August 2010, was among several mitigations approved as part of the massive expansion of the TraPac terminal.
In a separate action, the harbor commission also signed off on 46 separate air quality mitigation projects totaling $13 million. The funds come from a program created in 2003 as part of a settlement reached between the port and environmental groups over the China Shipping terminal expansion project.
