About

It was created by Law No. 11.414 of the Buenos Aires Province Congress, thus complying with the provisions set forth in article 12 of Harbor Activity Act No. 24.093, enforced by the National Congress. Since September 1st, 1993 the Port Consortium is in charge of the administration and exploitation of the Bahía Blanca harbor complex. In fact, it became the first independent harbor in Argentina, under the National Government's umbrella of privatizations and transfers of all the Argentine harbor systems, which had belonged to the State for decades. The Board of Directors has nine appointed members representing several sectors concerned with the harbor operation and development.
