From Chad Parry via email.actionnetwork.org Date Mon 2/23/2026 9:28 AM To Commission-Public-Records WARNING: External email. Links or attachments may be unsafe. Clerk of Port_Seattle, I am concerned that the cruise companies whose ships visit Seattle may soon try to withdraw from the voluntary agreement to pause the dumping of toxic scrubber pollution into our local waters. I urge you to do everything in your power to ensure the current agreement stays in place. I expect the Port to use all available tools - both carrots and sticks - to keep the scrubber discharge pause in place. There are more than 90 scrubber wash bans and restrictions in place around the world, to protect water quality, marine life, public health, and local ocean economies. Our water - and its inhabitants - is irreplaceable. Carnival Cruise commissioned and financed a report that claims to show that scrubber discharge has no impact on the marine environment of Puget Sound. Importantly, the Washington Department of Ecology does not fully agree with the results of the report, and there is a huge body of recent scientific work that shows how toxic and harmful this pollution is. Also of note: Carnival Corporation has a 50-year history of repeated felony convictions for environmental crimes, including multiple instances of falsifying evidence, and over 700 violations of probation. Carnival's report appears to be an example of industry-funded studies which are designed to produce a specific result, in order to allow harmful behavior to continue. The heavy metals and other toxins present in scrubber discharges can be absorbed and ingested by marine life, from plankton to salmon to orcas. These contaminants accumulate in organisms and persist and multiply as they move up the food chain. Scrubber waste is up to 100,000 times as acidic as surrounding seawater, and discharging it exacerbates ocean acidification, which is already harming the Salish Sea. In addition, the marine life in the millions of gallons of seawater pulled up by the scrubber's incredibly powerful intake pumps is unlikely to survive its trip through the scrubber. Larger fish are crushed against the filter, while plankton are sprayed into a hot, acidic chamber, full of toxic gases. Ships burning heavy fuel oil with scrubbers emit more air pollution - specifically, more black carbon - than those using low-sulfur fuels, worsening human health issues like asthma, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Further, Washington residents and visitors are at risk for https://outlook.office365.com/mail/commission-public-records@portseattle.org/inbox/id/AAQkAGE1YmYzYTk0LWE2N2YtNGZmYi05YjgxLTE5MDVjO... 1/2 2/23/26, 9:54 AM Inbox - Commission-Public-Records - Outlook ingesting the heavy metals and toxins that accumulate in marine animal tissues as they sit down for their next seafood meal. According to the Washington Department of Commerce, our state's marine economy brings in over $24 billion per year. This economy depends on clean, productive waters, not end-of-pipe workarounds that externalize pollution costs onto fishing communities. Maintaining the discharge ban helps protect our working waterfronts. I understand that the Port cannot force cruise companies to continue this voluntary scrubber discharge pause, but ports have an obligation to prevent local environmental harm. Please do everything in your power to protect our waters, marine life, public health, and our region's economy by ensuring that we keep toxic scrubber pollution out of the Salish Sea. I am submitting this as a written comment for the upcoming Port Commission meeting.
