| Transportation Systems to Protect the Environment
In 1998, WesPac began working with airports across the country to help them make the switch to receiving fuel by pipelines instead of trucks. Why? Trucks are a significant source of mobile air pollution including CO2, and are a major cause of road deterioration as well as traffic hazards and congestion. On the other hand, WesPac's underground pipeline systems are the safest, cleanest, and most economical means to transport fuel. Environmentally proactive cities such as San Diego, Reno, and Memphis have worked with WesPac to eliminate the transportation of jet fuel by tanker trucks.
WesPac is continuously working to improve the environment with similar projects for not only jet fuel, but for all transportation fuels in cities across North America. Additionally, WesPac is developing projects to improve logistics for the renewable fuels industry which includes biodiesel, ethanol and other alternative fuels. WesPac believes that the success of these projects clearly demonstrates that environmentally-friendly practices are compatible with good business.
