Cargo traffic: An article in Wednesday’s Business section on the success of a program to shift some of the cargo container traffic at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to nights and Saturdays quoted Craig Noble, described as a senior attorney at the Natural Resources Defense Council, as saying the ports should adopt quieter, alternative-fuel vehicles or electric trucks to reduce noise and air pollution. The statement should have been attributed to David Pettit, who is a senior attorney in the group’s Los Angeles office. Noble is the group’s communications director in California.
