Barb it has explained that with the decree 13th July, that we publish below, the Authority has in fact tax to the so-called "ships in line service" to use an only terminal containers authorized in the port of Civitavecchia and has evidenced that in this way she transported in hold or with containers has prevented itself to an operating historian of the field on ships specialized in the fruit transport (is refrigerator) to decide freely as carrying out the activities object of own industrial plan, favoring directing competitor.
"Draft - Federico Barbera has denounced - of a decision liberticida that a new monopoly gives the go-ahead free and that risks to having occupational repercussions, as well as to penalize operating that in the past they have invested on infrastructures of the port of Civitavecchia; decision that goes exactly in opposite sense to recorded how much, opportunely on analogous argument, to work of then the Harbour Authority of Livorno. In the same moment in which the offices of the MIT deservedly they have been activated in order to above all bring back order and legitimacy in the field of the "Harbour Job" in the field of the so-called "self-handlers", analogous replies are not had, whereby, as to Livorno all this are aggravated by a situation of commistione of roles authorize to you, managerial and of control that does not have replies in other truths and where, quite, the entire inspecting system of the U.L.P are dismantled. We have asked the Ministry of Transportation - it has specified Barb - to acquire details on how much it is happening and to take part in order to favor homogeneity of rules on a national level, flood competition, investments and development of new traffics".

Taken into consideration the fact that this AdSP is held to write up, according to the taken part normative modifications to law 84/94, a Town development plan of fine Harbour System and that to such one has become necessary to assess the correct interpretation to give in particular regarding to the functional destinations the commercial area of the Port of Civitavecchia that is subdivided in three subzones, mainly the Cl (having to object relative the harbour operations to handling and storage of containers; whose area with the relative dock n.25 has been date from 2006 in concession, according to art. the 18 of law 84 94, to society RTC); the C2 (having to object relative the harbour operations to handling and conventional storage of goods, the whose two docks n.23 and n.24 are still public) and the C3 (having to object relative the harbour operations to handling and storage solid bulk, whose dock, the n.26, is also public);
CONSIDERED that the propedeutiche necessities to the elaboration of the Town development plan of Harbour System are anticipated in terms of requirement of this Administration to above all assure the development of a recent traffic of producing agricultural and food- (bananas) that, for effect of the fast evolution of the transport modalities that have interested the cited merceologica category, they travel in containers cooled rather than in pallets generally through naval units c.d. "full hand container";
Taken into consideration the fact that for the boarding operations disembarkation of such type of traffic is used by an operator (in recent months and with a trend in increase) in prevailing way the dock n.24 instead of dock 25, these last electively destined from the turning out Portuale Town development plan to the suitable function of terminal containers and (which essential infrastructure) to the development of such operations as well as underused regarding own total abilities;
CONSIDERED that they do not turn out obstacles of operating nature technical that prevent the transport of the container from the dock 25, that is zone US, to the warehouse of the fruit situated in the C2 zone, in compliance with previewed how much from the Portuale Town development plan which, in the total distribution of the functions, characterizes among other things, an ulterior positioning of the activities of handling of the containers in the areas called Energetic Dock Great Masses;
CONSIDERED also that had with regard to the operations of refuel/defuel of the containers it is not recorded, as it happens in other in increase equally present merceologici fields in the port of Civitavecchia, the impossibility of location of positionings alternatives for which they must be able to be used (on the base of a flexible approach, to which, in these cases, the Administration can appeal to the aim of the promotion of the traffics and the competitiveness of the port) areas not consented in concession from which manutentivi burdens also of extraordinary ordinary nature derive for the Administration as well as;
CONSIDERED that, according to already cited art 6, codicil 4, lett. a) of the L.84, 94, is prerogative of the regular AdSP the activities that are shaped as harbour operations and to supervise on the correct execution of the same ones are from the subjective point of view of the qualifications of the enterprise that regarding the positioning of the activities, in conformity in particular of the PRP;
Considered that it is interest of this administration let alone of the harbour community to favor the development of this traffic of producing ortofrutticoli that it generates important fallen back economic let alone occupational for the entire territory and constitutes (as specified in the Triennial Operations plan a 2018-2020 of this AdSP) important sinergico field with the market of the cruises (in which the Port of Civitavecchia he is leader to European level) regarding supplyings of edge and marine marine storage more in general terms;
CONSIDERED that, in the light of how much over and from the ascertainment of a trend in cooled increase of disembarks/embarks of container on dock 24 let alone of connected demanded of authorizations to the temporary pause of container on such dock (with all the consequences, is restated, than this involves in terms of greater manutentivi burdens for the Administration), is risen the urgency, by this Administration, to assess if the identification of a specific zone, which that Cl, for container handling. the sopracitato imprinted approach does not allow (although with the flexibility of the functional destinations) that the same activity is carried out in areas falling back in other subzones more generically identified, as in particular the dock n.24;
SEEN the note prot. 6362 of the 24.05.2017 with which this AdSP therefore has considered opportune to advance a demand for seeming to the Higher council of the public works to the aim in particular to decline the contents of the contained dispositions in the relative PRP to the various previewed functional destinations in the Commercial Area of the Port of Civitavecchia;

CONSIDERED THAT with over cited To seem n.44 the 2017 CSLLPP it has specified that “within a generic attributed “commercial” function from the PRP to a harbour area, the subdivision in subzones characterized from specific “types categories of harbour operations, has lynxes incidence on the declination (internal) of the destination of use of the foretold area”.Various it could not be, pain an excessive genericità of the destination of “commercial” use, that it appears in contrast with the currents you address methodological in harbour topic of planning”;

CONSIDERED that to light of the foretold one To seem n. 44/2017 and from the reading that has been some date from the Interistituzionale Commission, not sussistono, therefore, elements that “handling and conventional storage of goods” can justify an extensive interpretation of the destination (C2 Subzone) in reason of the specific type of the container reefer (that is container cooled) that they disembark embark on the dock n. 24 let alone in reason of the specific harbour operations that are carried out in reference to this type of traffic which after its disembarkation acquires, in fact, a marginal role regarding the entire cycle of the harbour operations carried out there, various from that instead it happens for the harbour operations carried out in the terminal containers in which instead it is the same container that constitutes the main element of the same cycle;
Considered that, as specified in the opinion n. 44/17 of the Higher council of the Public works, the occasional boarding/disembarkation of goods containerized in a relative subzone to “handlings and conventional storages of goods” cannot be prevented, in principle, on condition that it does not modify in some way the function attributed from the enforced not dumb Portuale Town development plan and the functional organization to earth of the terminal, that it must remain that of a terminal for goods conventional;
CONSIDERED that according to the Higher council of the Public works the disembarkation boarding of container (comprised the reefer there) could therefore happen, if of the case, also on the dock n.24 provided that it maintains the occasionalità character;
CONSIDERED that, under the profile of the public interest and based on the principle of good administration of which to art. the 97 of the Constitution, the management of the government property must be imprinted to guarantee of the most profitable use (as specified from art. the 37 of the navigation code in relation the competition more questions than concession);

CONSIDERED therefore that it cannot be defined, than according to express in the cited one To seem of the Interistituzionale Commission, “occasional” an activity that are characterized for its habitualness, sistematicità, ripetitività, regularity and stability such from being able to be riconducibile to the definition of which to the shipping prot. n. 000724/XI in date 10.01.1992 of then the Inspector general's office of the Harbour offices, recalled in the circular letter prot. n° RAM/3919-2/2009 of the Ministry of the Atmosphere and the Protection of the Territory and the Sea, second which shapes “ship in line service” that which it carries out ports of call in more ports with frequency and which predetermined routes;
Considered that, according to the art.8, par. 3 lett. g) of the L.84/94, the President supplies “to the coordination and the control of the activities subject to authorization and concession”;

Considered also of the organizational necessities and commercial times to allow I use it optimal of the infrastructure harbour for handling and storage of the container reefer through an effective and economic connection between the destined area US to the “relative harbour operations to handlings and storage containers” that the dock comprises n.25 and the “terminal fruit” given in concession to the CFFT, equipped for the storage and the treatment of the ortofrutticoli produced ones;
