What are Port and Port-related Impacts?

These impacts are from the operations of the Port of Los Angeles, both on and off-port property, and it is HCBF’s goal to address these impacts by funding projects and programs that mitigate the past, present, or future impacts. The following are some examples of Port Impacts that HCBF has previously funded in the Community Benefit program:

• Air Quality
• Health Risk
• Land Use
• Marine Life & Ecology
• Noise
