FACING WITH EMERGENCY

TESTING/MONITORING( AQUARIUM )

For the determination of sampling of the

aquarium water, these factors are taken into

consideration:

Activity tipology of the port area.

Ships influx.

Intensity and frequency of impact (for

example for temporary activities such as

construction of new terminal).

Proximity to other activities that may affect

the efficency of measurements.

Impact of different influx in the aquarium.

TESTING / MONITORING( GASES AND NOISE )

� For the determination of monitoring points of

air quality and noise, these factors are taken

into consideration:

Activity tipology of the port area.

Type and number of used vehicles.

Intensity and frequency of impact (for

example for temporary activities such as

construction of new terminal).

Proximity to other activities that may affect

the efficency of measuremnts;

After identifying the areas with problem

parameters, we make recommendations to

minimize the negative impacts generated by the

development of operations and implementation of

port development projects.

Quality of water aquarium

Starting from the high levels of macronutrients, Pb, Cu, Cd, suspended matter and photogenes and

reduce the influence of the factors that affect in the water quality, we suggest/recommend as

below :

� 1. Dumping reduction/waste spill (especially of the organic nature ) in the port by ships all

the categories that enter and/or operate /reside in port ;

� 2. Strengthening control over ships at anchor. An important source, especially for heavy

metals, is remains of metal and paint on ships when they are old and subject to corrosion.

� 3. Strengthening the control of waste during the process of unloading of ships, especially

cereals, since they are directly related to the N and P that is wasted in seawater;

� 4. Strengthening control measures in terms of collection and treatment of food waste

produced in the port (employees and / or passenger.

R E C O M M E N D A T I O N S

Air Quality

We suggest that :

� 1. Be identified and monitored by Port specialists construction work by

reducing all processes that cause dust and fumes during work time.

� 2. Identify and eliminate all parts without adding to road / streets of the port

and laid them in order to reduce dust.

� 3. To be checked and prevented all motor vehicles at the port causing the fumes

and gases more than the norm. For this you may be required to test their

equipments, despite the control of the vehicle that is carried out once a year.

Environmental Laboratory

We are currently at the stage of the

implementation and monitoring of the contract

"Electronic system and environmental

monitoring equipment" (Krijon l.t.d. 2011 -

2012)

Through implementation of this project:

� It is established a monitoring framework for

environmental indicators in the territory of

Durres Port Authority.

� It is trained the personnel who will carry out

sampling, analysis and interpretation of

environmental parameters.

� We create conditions to have an accredited

laboratory and to establish a database with

environmental parameters.

� To preserve the water, air and noise level

within the standards, we will monitor

periodically, as required by European

Bank for Reconstruction and

Development EBRD in order to fulfill EU

standards.

13

OPERATION MONITORING

We have approved the Environmental

Management Plan EMP in order to minimize the

impacts generated during the implementation of

the development projects and operations. Since

port is located near the urban zone, the

monitoring of generated impacts asks for a

specific attention.

The Specialists of Environmental

Directorate:

Carry out the Environmental & Social

Monitoring during the activity of the

stevedoring companies.

They give the duly recommendations as

well as compile an Action - Plan in order to

minimize the generated impacts.

14

The monitoring is carried out in compliance with

the standards required by European Bank for

Reconstruction and Development EBRD, for all

the activities at Durres Port.

STAFF TRAINING

� Training of the Environment Directorate

staff with the aim of Environmental

Audit of the activities and projects

implemented in Port of Durres, in

accordance with principles of the

performance required by EBRD.

� Participation in ECOPORT 8 – Project, on

Eco – Management of the PAN EU

corridor ports.

� Participation in the workshop on

“Technology and Environmental Policy

at ports”, in Antwerp – Belgium, financed

by APEC organization under the auspices

of Belgian Government.

On May 2011, the Assembly of ESPO (Environmental

Sea Ports Organization) accepted the candidacy of

Durres Port Authority as an observer member.

We are engaged in ESPO initiatives, including SDM –

Self Diagnostic Method of environmental performance

by completing the relevant forms and review them

under the suggestion of specialists.
