ALERT: POLA Releases Initial Study, Notice of Preparation for Proposed Truck and Chassis Parking Lot

The Port of Los Angeles has released an Initial Study/Notice of Preparation or IS/NOP — the first step in the environmental review process — for a proposed John S. Gibson Truck and Chassis Parking Lot located near the San Pedro Bay Port Complex. The proposed site location is not on port-owned property. 

The proposed project, located at 1599 John S. Gibson Blvd., would develop an 18.63-acre site with a short-term truck and chassis parking facility and related site improvements. The project site is anticipated to be utilized for short-term parking, as chassis with or without containers, are not anticipated to be parked on site over 24 hours. The proposed project includes paving of a portion of the site and striping of approximately 393 truck and chassis stalls. The proposed project would be implemented in one development phase and would require an amendment to the Port of Los Angeles Master Plan.

The IS/NOP is available for review on the Port of Los Angeles website at portoflosangeles.org/ceqa. The IS/NOP is intended to solicit feedback, which helps to identify any potential environmental impacts and suggest possible alternatives for the project that can be incorporated into the Draft Environmental Impact Report or DEIR.

The port will hold a virtual public meeting to receive comments on the IS/NOP Nov. 14. No registration is required. Simultaneous Spanish translation services will be provided. Meeting will take place via Zoom.

Written comments on the IS/NOP may be submitted via email to ceqacomments@portla.org  or to the following address during the public comment period through Dec. 11, 2023:
