At its latest meeting, held yesterday in Palma, the Board of Directors of the Balearic Islands Port Authority (APB) approved a collaboration agreement with Marina La Savina on good environmental practices in the general interest port of La Savina. The agreement, which will be valid for six months, aims to increase environmental investments in the nautical facility.

As part of the agreement, Port Med Formentera S.L. has pledged to invest at least 50% of the savings in environmental improvement projects in the surrounding area. In addition, it must adhere to a set of technical and operational instructions based on the guidelines for good environmental practices approved by the State Ports Authority. The company is also obliged to have ISO 14001 certification.

Port Med Formentera S.L. is the company currently authorised to manage the moorings on the western quay of La Savina Port, operating under the name Marina La Savina. In accordance with current legislation, the APB provides that all holders of a concession or licence to carry out certain types of port activities — including fishing and nautical sports — may subscribe to an agreement on good environmental practices in exchange for a 15% discount on their business activity fee.
