Environmental laws

Ports have no good name in environment: many laws have to improve ports.

•International: IMO, European legislation

•National

Small Ports: same obligations as big ports!how to manage, how to finance?

Some Strategic Questions– Is your small port income big enough to cover all (environmental) port costs?

– Can costs be reduced by port cooperation? Or by ports sharing knowledge and resources?

– Are you using a (right) management system?

Port Companies:many professional management systems

Port de Caraminal, Spain



• Port Authorities....have limited legal environmental responsibility

13

Port Authorities are different:need own environmental management Tools

Piombino, Italy




• Only the companies in the port

are environmentally liable and need environmental permits

14

Port de Fécamp, France





• Only the companies in the port

are environmentally liable and need environmental permits

• But the general public expects the Port Authority

– to know environmental impact of all companies in their port and

– to take immediate action if a company spoils the environment

• Therefore Ports need:

a voluntary management system to manage environmental priorities

SPP SDM:Some of the Sustainable Port Policy Topics

PORT AND LOGISTICS POLICY•Do you have a national governmental port and logistics policy

PORT AND LOGISTICS IN SPATIAL PLANS•Are existing ports mentioned in the national governmental spatial plan

PORT AND LOGISTICS INVESTMENT PROGRAM•Do you have a city governmental port and logistics investment program

PORT AND LOGISTICS STIMULATION PROGRAM•Do you have a regional governmental port and logistics stimulation program

3. First Lessons Suports from ECOPORTS/ECOSLCTools Workshops


38



Suports: Ecoports Tools Workshopsfirst results from 35 small ports (1)

Exchange of experience

1. Need to meet colleagues to discuss experience inimplementing law in daily port practice

2. No permanent structure available for small ports to exchange good practice solutions

Need for Tools3. Need for tools that support the implementation of practical solutions for environmental priority issues step

by step. Example: port security

4. Need for tool that assists in making a sustainable port policy

39



Lessons from use of ECOPORTS/ECOSLC Tools in Workshops

4. Ecoports and ECOSLC Tools SPP SDM pointed out to beuseful to structure discussion on creation of sustainableport management

5. Translation of SDM in national language to be used in workshops was very helpful and necessary todiscuss detailed technical environmental issues

6. SDM was very helpful as a checklist of all relevant environmental port issues: it created structure for thesmall port

7. Meeting in workshops with large, Ecoportscertified, ports improved the results

40




Port City/Region

8. Environmental effects of transport (noise, safety,emissions) in port, city, region need growing attention

Port Exploitation

9. Some environmental issues are seen as critical for the veryexistence of a small port and need high attention. Example:costs of dredging.

Knowledge10. Knowledge in small ports about some critical elements for functioning need stimulation

Examples:

1. cost of dredging

2. practical environmental solutions for dredging within limits of the environmental legislation

3. Role of small port in transport and logistics

4. Environmental liability of small ports in environmental incidents

Preliminary Conclusions

1. Environmental requirements increase in number, become stricter, morecomplicated, can bring a high risk and become more expensive

2. More specific environmental knowledge and expert personel is needed forsolutions

3. Solutions for small ports challenges are needed and ...coming up in Europe

4. ECOPORTS and ECOSLC Tools have been helpful as step to createawareness and to introduce a basic sustainable management in small ports
