Now Available: ADA Accessible Implementation Manual & Attachment E
On Agosto 17, CORE released an ADA accessible version of the FY26-27 Implementation Manual and Attachment E for Commercial Harbor Craft. These documents have been adjusted for low-vision readers and are fully usable by E-readers and other assistive technology.

Simposio de aprendizaje de CORE Advocates
Thank you to everyone who attended the 2026 CORE Advocates Learning Symposium: Powering Sustainable Port Operations webinar.
We appreciated hearing directly from CORE voucher recipients, dealers, and manufacturers who shared their experiences deploying clean commercial harbor craft, cargo-handling equipment, and forklifts. Their stories highlighted the tangible business, operational, and environmental benefits made possible through CORE funding.
These firsthand perspectives continue to demonstrate how incentive programs can accelerate the transition to zero-emission equipment while supporting California businesses and communities. View the event recap and recording.
