SEA LAND SERVICES Harbour Facility, Tacoma, Washington | United States Marine Utilities

SEA LAND SERVICES is an operational harbour facility located at 929 Port of Tacoma Rd in Tacoma, Washington, United States. Situated within the Port of Tacoma, one of the largest container ports in the Pacific Northwest, this facility plays a vital role in regional maritime logistics and cargo handling. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the United States, including the US EPA Vessel General Permit (VGP) and NPDES permits for shoreside operations. As a harbour facility, it is subject to stormwater management requirements and oil-water separation protocols to minimize environmental impact. The Port of Tacoma handles a mix of containerized, bulk, and breakbulk cargo, with SEA LAND SERVICES likely supporting these activities. Environmental significance includes proximity to the Puget Sound, a sensitive coastal ecosystem. The facility must manage stormwater runoff and potential spills from cargo handling. Its operational status ensures continued contribution to regional trade and economic activity, while adherence to environmental regulations helps protect local marine habitats.

The facility is located on the Puget Sound, a biologically rich estuary that supports salmon, orcas, and diverse marine life. Cargo handling activities, particularly bulk and containerized goods, require careful stormwater management and spill prevention to protect water quality. The region's high rainfall increases runoff risks, making robust containment and treatment systems essential for compliance with environmental standards.
