NYK Line will be become a member of the PNW West Coast Metro Pool (WCMP) operated by Trac Intermodal. The WCMP operates chassis at all major marine terminals, rail facilities and various depots in Portland, Seattle & Tacoma. All motor carriers transporting NYK Line Carrier Haulage cargo and domestic shipments will be required to utilize this chassis pool. This change is designed to build efficiencies while minimizing the environmental impact of having a large number of chassis that are used intermittently and have to be stored and moved. NYK Line believes that this policy change will not only lower total cost but will also build greater flexibility for the trucker, and improve the performance of their daily work. In addition, the policy change will have an immediate impact on terminal congestion reducing turn time and ultimately providing a better product for the customer. The WCMP currently covers NYK Line at the following nominated NYK Line facilities: BNSF SSA-T18 Con-Global SSA-T30 Northwest Container Washington United Terminal
