ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION Much of the world prosperity today has been produced or FROM PORT FACILITIES facilitated by seaports and their associated activities. In recent decades, ports have grown alongside the emerging global 2.1 The increase in international trade has led to a economy and global hubs for large-scale effective trade and corresponding rapid increase in the volume of goods shipping. Traditionally, port authorities were more concerned transported by sea. Despite the enormous growth in maritime about the impact of the environment on their own activities, shipping, most pollution prevention efforts at local, state and rather than vice versa. However, environmental issues have federal levels have focused on other sources of pollution, widened in scope and public awareness has increased, leading while the environmental impacts of ports have increased. The to the establishment of environmental organizations and the result is that the most major ports are heavy pollutants, establishment of rigorous environmental regulations to releasing to a large extent amounts of harmful atmospheric address the problem. The Municipality of Perama is located in and aquatic pollutants that are unmanageable, causing noise the south-western part of the Attica Basin and belongs to the and light pollution that disrupt the surrounding communities Regional Unity of Piraeus and is a city with a great and damage marine habitats. Through regular surveys, ESPO connection to the port and shipping. In a questionnaire shared and EcoPorts have been following the top environmental with workers and residents in the city, the majority of priorities of the European port sector since 1996.

    NOTES ON SALAMlNlAN HARBOURS Kara TOUTO &ur1 ZaAapiq vrjooq ~airroAlq ~aiAlprj v. SKY LAX Introduction My contribution' to this Third International Symposium on "Ship Construction in Antiquity" aims at giving us the chance to visit some of the ancient harbours of Salamis, land of King Ajax and birthplace of Euripides, an island favoured by Geography to be &uAip&voq(well-harboured), not 6uaoppoq vauaiv, as the ancient Greeks would have said. Among the bigger islands of the Saronic Gulf, Salamis, with an area of 93.5 km2, lies nearest to Attica. Its fame derives mainly from the great sea-battle that tookplace in the historic Straits in 480 BC. Yet, that naval battle, however crucial for Greek History,was one of many events in a long and at times turbulent Salaminian history in which ships and seamanship, harbours and sea-communication played a major role. The nautical tradition is still very much in evidence in Salamis today. A substantial part of the income of many of the modern Salaminians derives from activities associated with the functioning of the Naustathmos i.e. the Arsenal of the Greek Fleet in the northeastern part of the island and of a sizeable fleet of fishing boats harboured at Koulouri, the island's capital; and also with the existence of a series of small and medium-size shipyards and ship-repair units around the Bay of Ambelaki in the eastern part of the island and at Perama on the opposite Attic coast, which is linked to Salamis by ferry. YANNOS LOLOS TROPlS 111 As its title suggests, my paper is acompilation of working notes and observations on Salaminian harbours made during recent field research for a larger project concerning Prehistoric Salamis with particular reference to its southern part2, a project on which I have been fortunate to embark in collaboration with Professor Demetrios I.

The presence of volatile organic compounds in ambient air is strongly dependent on the site characteristics and a harbor area undergoes many source typologies such as road transport, ship emissions and contaminants of commercial activities, the shipbuilding zone and other operating facilities. The current work was implemented at the recently established Atmospheric Pollution Monitoring Station of the Municipality of Keratsini-Drapetsona located in the close vicinity of the Piraeus port. Since December 2018 an automatic gas chromatograph with flame ionization detector (FID) continuously monitors at a 30 minutes time resolution non methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) focusing on hazardous compounds (aromatics) and strong precursors (aromatics, monoterpenes) of secondary pollutants like ozone and secondary organic aerosols.

Please bring this copy. Ce document ne sera plus distribué en réunion. Prière de vous munir de cet exemplaire. T-PVS/Files(2020)5 2 - August 2020 – The situation remains the same since our previous report. Nevertheless, instead of a report, I would like to submit a recently published paper by Italian colleagues (attached), which studied the illegal date mussel fishery in the Mediterranean, and highlighted that Greece is the 'champion' of poaching (see e.g. Fig. 6). I have to notice that my complaint, which dates back to 2014, has not led so far to any effective measures by Greece to confront the issue. The stated actions by the government remain ineffective (e.g. public awareness through an e-leaflet in the ministry's webpage with low outreach) or a 'wish list' (e.g. the enhancement of controls). Since the destructive date mussel fishery remains and the pressure on coastal ecosystems increases, I would like to ask you for more drastic actions and pressure on the Greek government. Sincerely, Prof. Stelios Katsanevakis, PhD University of the Aegean Department of Marine Sciences
