<v Speaker 5>Massachusetts Rep. Stephen Lynch celebrating at Flynn Cruise Port Boston

<v Speaker 5>as Massport unveils one hundred million dollar plan to transform

79
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:25.279
<v Speaker 5>this hub. Most of that money, we'll go to a

80
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:26.959
<v Speaker 5>ship to shore power system.

81
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.560
<v Speaker 6>When these big ships come in, in order to provide power

82
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:33.959
<v Speaker 6>to their passengers, they've got to run those diesel engines.

83
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:36.839
<v Speaker 5>It's a big pollution problem that's getting bigger as cruise

84
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:38.720
<v Speaker 5>liners swell to massive sizes.

85
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:43.399
<v Speaker 6>Rather than having them blowing diesel fumes out over the city,

86
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:45.319
<v Speaker 6>they'll be able to come in and plug in.

87
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 5>This announcement comes in the wake of what Massport says

88
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:50.720
<v Speaker 5>was a record breaking season and a COVID comeback, with

89
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:54.360
<v Speaker 5>close to half a million passengers shipping into Boston at

<v Speaker 2>The Boston Licensing Board removing the purchase of a liquor

92
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.000
<v Speaker 2>license held by the former owners of a Boston bar.

93
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:08.480
<v Speaker 2>The Cypress Realty Group, the landlord of the building, buying

<v Speaker 2>license will go to the estate of the family of

100
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:33.199
