Since April 2005 the Department of Environmental Engineering of Genoa has carried on a monitoring program within the industrial Ports of the Liguria Region (Italy) to investigate storm runoff pollutants associated to different port activities. Both water quality and flow measurements data have been collected from the container terminal (Port of La Spezia), dry bulk terminal and car ferries terminal (Port of Genoa). Laboratory tests have been performed to analyse TSS, TOC, pH, conductivity and heavy metals (dissolved and particulate bound fractions). This paper aims at illustrating results from the different monitoring sites and investigating the pollutant delivery behaviour, mainly focusing on the partitioning of metals across the event as a function of the hydrologic aspects and general water quality parameters

Abstract
Since April 2005 the Department of Environmental Engineering of Genoa has carried on a monitoring program within the industrial Ports of the Liguria Region (Italy) to investigate storm runoff pollutants associated to different port activities. Both water quality and flow measurements data have been collected from the container terminal (Port of La Spezia), dry bulk terminal and car ferries terminal (Port of Genoa). Laboratory tests have been performed to analyse TSS, TOC, pH, conductivity and heavy metals (dissolved and particulate bound fractions). This paper aims at illustrating results from the different monitoring sites and investigating the pollutant delivery behaviour, mainly focusing on the partitioning of metals across the event as a function of the hydrologic aspects and general water quality parameters
