Summary/Abstract: In Constanta port and in the areas around it, more than 250 economic agents develop their activity, among which 230 in Constanta Port, the rest of them in Midia and Mangalia ports. Port activity, as other industrial activities, generates pollution, perturbing all environmental factors: air, water, soil and subsoil. This paper is the result of the studies conducted during the elaboration of the Ph.D. thesis entitled Studies Concerning the Impact of Industrial Activities on Areas with Touristic Potential. [1] A part of this research also refers to the activity from Constanta port. The measures for protecting the Black Sea presented in this paper are the results of some previous studies. Thus, the economic agents which act in the area of Constanta port: Have been classified according to the type of activity, the origin source of pollution, and the type of pollution produced; Have received a questionnaire, through which we have studied their attitude toward the use of harmless technologies, but also the investments distributed for the environmental protection; Leopold Matrix has been realized. As a result of these studies that will be shortly presented in this paper, we could identify the measures that can be adopted for the protection of the Black Sea in the port area.
