FUNCTIONS OF A SEAPORT • Seaports need to be planned to service commercial cargo, vessel and passenger transactions: to equip, repair, maintain and establish a vessel in preparation with minimal cost, time and maximum efficiency and productivity for all offered facilities and services. • Existing seaport literature defines ports as “acting as a gateway through which goods and passengers are transferred between ships and the shore, ” seeking to enhance efficiency while aiming to minimize “the generalised transport cost of through transport, ”

DURBAN'S PORT • Durban’s port has becomes a port network: “an advanced, regionally dominant global trade port, ” addressing other port community concerns including the environment, recreation and the quality of life with a port development. • • Durban’s port accounts for over 70% of trade passing through South Africa’s ports. • • over 5000 vessels calling per year.

Transportation in Durban port • upgrading of rail provides an environmentally and economically friendly solution. • Expanding train numbers from 23 • Electric over diesel. • Improving communication • Increasing carriage numbers. . • Electronic tagging for reliability and security

CONSTRAINTS FACING DURBAN • Economic/Political/Social constraints • Climatic Change/Natural Disasters • Changes in vessels – types, technology and research • environmental and opportunity costs of any existing facilities the impact of tides, river currents and the ocean) • Capital • Maintenance and operations

SOLUTIONS • Noise walls – constructed to reduce port noise. • restricted operating times – example peak hours • Solar powered to reduce cost and save lights • Vessel neutralisation • Tonnage deployment

HUDSON RIVER To improve the water quality they increased the monitoring and notification to better understand the health of the river , this can help track down the cause of exceedance and to enable regulators to inform the public with more timely and accurate information Investment in wastewater infrastructure is needed to ensure the lasting protection of water quality. Better water quality policies are needed to improve the quality of treatment and overall water management.

• Port in Australia and Europe Seabin Project is a clean tech startup with offices in Australia and Europe on a simple and ambitious mission: To help solve the global problem of ocean plastic pollution and ocean conservation • The Seabin Project takes a “Whole Solution” strategy which is a comprehensive approach to achieve sustainable oceans and fight ocean plastic pollution arched around science, technology, education and community. • To help solve the global problem of ocean plastic pollution and ocean conservation, Seabin Project develops innovative upstream solutions for cleaner and more sustainable marinas, ports, rivers, public waterways and ultimately, oceans. Its latest innovation, the V 5 Seabin unit, is a floating debris interception device that acts as a marina trash skimmer, maintaining water clean and protecting the environment. • Seabin technologies have the potential to catch mismanaged waste such as macro and micro plastic debris and micro fibres before they have the chance to reach the ocean.

Port of Stockton • Industrial and maritime activities at the Port of Stockton have the potential to produce many types of water pollutants and the Port goes to great lengths to prevent them from reaching the surrounding waterway • the Port of Stockton spent more than $5 million on storm water to protect and improve water quality. • The Port conducted a cleanup of its East Complex; targeting illegally dumped dirt and debris piles
