Abstract: This Monograph on Port Management has been prepared by Celso Martins Pimentel, lecturer at the University of Vila Velha (UVV), Espirito Santo State, Brazil. This is the sixteenth monograph of the series on subjects of interest to port management prepared in collaboration with the International Association of Ports and Harbors (IAPH). The monograph reviews the development of port legislation in Brazil which has had two main objectives, namely to generate revenue for port development and to improve efficiency. The report first considers the initial legislation, then the consolidation of the legislation during the 1960s and finally the new law, which was passed in February 1993, and its implementation. The evolution of the sources of funding for the development and maintenance of port facilities is also discussed
