Overview
Text
Bill Intelligence

The bill establishes the Blue Whales and Blue Skies Program within 12 months, aiming to reduce air pollution, greenhouse gases, and risks to whales. It awards excellence to compliant vessels and creates an official logo for their recognition. The program, initially modeled after an existing one, will evaluate the feasibility of expanding along the U.S. Pacific coast. It does not mandate participation or provide financial incentives, ensuring navigation safety. Vessels over 300 gross tons may participate, with the program covering the marine area along the U.S. western coast, including a specific geographic area.
