Ballast Water Management and Control: A New Challenge Notes for presenter: Introductory slide - introduce yourself and the presentation.

moves > 80% of World’s commodities, Shipping: moves > 80% of World’s commodities, transport capacity will double in the next 20 years, is getting faster and more frequent! Notes for presenter: Slide is self explanatory. GloBallast Programme

Ballast Water Discharge Ships are transferring 10 billion tons of ballast water a year Notes for presenter: Examples of ballast water being discharged from a ship. GloBallast Programme

7,000 to possibly more than 10,000 different species of microbes, marine plants & animals may be carried in ballast water Notes for presenter: A drop of ballast water placed under a microscope may reveal a large variety of marine life. GloBallast Programme

Impacts Ecological Economical Human health New invasion every 9 weeks Losses around tens of billion US$ per year globally Human health Paralytic poisoning Cholera outbreaks GloBallast Programme

IMO Response Ballast Water Working Group under the MEPC Assembly Resolution A.868(20) New international legal instrument GloBallast Programme

Six Demonstration Sites / Regions Notes for presenter: The programme will be implemented initially through six demonstration sites, each of which represents one of the main developing regions of the World, as indicated in the slide. As the programme progresses, each demonstration site will be replicated throughout each region, through Regional Task Forces. GloBallast Programme

Dalian the GloBallast Demonstration Site for East Asia Losses for the prawn farming industry. About 5.5 million tons of ballast water discharged every year.
