摘要：Even though with the great relevance of the ports for economical and social development of the countries, there is an issue that deserves attention of the managers and society. It is the fact that the port activities cause environmental impacts such as siltation in aquatic environs, changes in the fauna and flora, atmosphere emissions, solid waste generations and among others. In this context, the environmental information management is important as for the port managers as for society since it allows to know the impact level generated and the commitment level with the sustainability over the time. One of the ways to measure information is to verify the manager commitment levels with the environmental management. As a consequence of this understanding the present research aims to identify the environmental sustainability in Port Authority of Valencia (APV). As methodology, it is used an applied questionnaire to the top management of APV and it is held a content analyses of the Sustainability Report of APV to understand the commitment level with environmental aspects. The questionnaire application results show a great APV commitment with environmental aspects (Materials, Energy, Water, Biodiversity, Emissions, Wastewaters, Wastes, Administrative and judicial sanctions, Product and Service Impacts, Transport Impacts, Fines, Non-monetary Sanctions, Non-conformities), however, the Sustainability Report analyses shows that not all items are shown (80% is shown). It is also verified that the APV commitment is not limited to the speech or port environmental policy, but also to the items that show and evaluate the environmental aspect perfomances
