"BTW, why is there always water pouring out of ports on boats?"

Mostly, that's cooling water.

Ships are not allowed to discharge any waste, even water, anywhere near a port. See here.
Here's the largest fine from that list:

$18 million ($9 million fine and $9 million in court-ordered community service to fund environmental projects in South Florida)
