The Port of Melbourne is situated in a sensitive estuarine environment, surrounded by a variety of land uses including residential, industrial and Melbourne's Central Business District.
While the sustainable operation of the Port of Melbourne is integral to Victoria’s economy, local communities and businesses, Port of Melbourne Corporation (PoMC) recognises this can only be achieved through balancing the environmental, social and economic factors involved.

In keeping with its commitment to the sustainable development and management of the Port of Melbourne, PoMC has developed and implemented a range of strategies and initiatives for the responsible environmental management of the port.

This section details the PoMC environmental policy,  the integrated Safety and Environment Management Plan for the port and information about the Port of Melbourne's carbon footprint.
