The main ANCHOR LIFE objective is to raise awareness, communicate and disseminate the topic of noise pollution coming from ports affecting urban nearby territories among public Administrations and land management decisionmakers, port authorities, private companies involved in port activities, citizens living in port cities and academics. The process will be led by the development and application of three Best Practices for Noise Governance and Information, one for each partner port authority, in order to enhance relationships among all the port actors, i.e. port authorities, companies and local communities. In detail, ANCHOR LIFE aims to develop three main activities: supporting rewarding "Figures of Merit" in port noise governance in Livorno, Piombino and Portoferraio ports to stimulate private companies to adopt noise decreasing practices in return for economic benefits or other advantages; designing and installing a Smart Port Noise Monitoring System in Patras port, consisting of a network of low-cost microphones; preparing a Guideline for the definition of a common approach in port noise monitoring and assessment, in order to produce Port Noise Impact Assessments to be included in ports Environmental Management Systems, to be applied to the proposed expansion of Melilla port.

Abstract
The main ANCHOR LIFE objective is to raise awareness, communicate and disseminate the topic of noise pollution coming from ports affecting urban nearby territories among public Administrations and land management decisionmakers, port authorities, private companies involved in port activities, citizens living in port cities and academics. The process will be led by the development and application of three Best Practices for Noise Governance and Information, one for each partner port authority, in order to enhance relationships among all the port actors, i.e. port authorities, companies and local communities. In detail, ANCHOR LIFE aims to develop three main activities: supporting rewarding "Figures of Merit" in port noise governance in Livorno, Piombino and Portoferraio ports to stimulate private companies to adopt noise decreasing practices in return for economic benefits or other advantages; designing and installing a Smart Port Noise Monitoring System in Patras port, consisting of a network of low-cost microphones; preparing a Guideline for the definition of a common approach in port noise monitoring and assessment, in order to produce Port Noise Impact Assessments to be included in ports Environmental Management Systems, to be applied to the proposed expansion of Melilla port.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
