- Equipped with the necessary infrastructure and services, based on clean technology and good practices, for the management of waste material generated in the Port Community.
- Preventing marine and land contamination and minimizing the effects should they occur.
The Safety and Environment Division have their own environmental recommendations that they offer to the port community to collaborate in the fulfillment of legislation and requirements established by the competent administration.
