MARPOL Annex V To prevent pollution of garbage/residues from ships IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee MEPC began meeting in 1973 shortly after IMO adopted the Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships or MARPOL. • One important regulation in MARPOL for ports: “the Government of each Party is to ensure the provision for reception of ship‐generated residues”

MARPOL Annex V discharge standards – January 1, 2013 All Oceans are essentially a “no discharge zone” with the exception of food wastes (which may have to be comminuted or ground (25 mm screen) in some areas. Dry Cargo Residues if not harmful to marine environment (HME) and in small quantities. GMP + GRB (400 GT and above)

Prevention of pollution from ships garbage IMO MARPOL Annex V Prevention of pollution from ships garbage MARPOL imposes one important obligation to the Government of each Party, To provide PRF for ship-generated residues and garbage that cannot be discharged into the sea PRF must be adequate to meet the needs of ships using the port, Without causing undue delay to ships Incentivize ships use of PRF to comply with MARPOL and to minimize discharges to sea. (Disposal of ships waste to take place in an environmentally appropriate way) Sustaining ocean health and productivity requires responsible use and stewardship by all users. The relevant regulations on port reception facilities are: Annex I: regulation 38; Annex II: regulation 18; Annex IV: regulation 12; Annex V: regulation 7; Annex VI: regulation 17.

Port Reception Facility Tools Global Integrated Shipping Information System (GISIS) Port Reception Facility Database (PRFD) PRFD convey current global PRF information, PRFD to be user friendly; PRFD populated w/ all available PRF PRFD by port/Country; waste category International Organization for Standardization ISO Standards Promoting Environmentally Sound Management of Ship’s Waste: Shipboard Waste Management Port Reception Facility Planning and Operation *Guide to Good Practice on PRF found on GISIS website: http://gisis.imo.org/Public/ IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) developed guidelines to assist developing countries in taking the necessary steps to implement the 1973 Convention” Early on there were difficulties meeting the guidelines

PRF Gaps Member states not consistently updating PRFD “the Government of each Party is to ensure the provision for reception of ship‐generated residues” = challenge for certain wastes/residuals Inadequate PRF submissions to MEPC from Port States were not representative of global fleet

MARPOL Annex V details Discharge of all forms of plastics, including garbage containing plastic, into the sea, is prohibited! An international treaty and domestic law prohibit discharge of most garbage from ships under strict conditions, except for a limited list of materials. Outside Special Areas designated under MARPOL Annex V: With the exception of discharging cleaning agents in washing water; the ship must be en route. Comminuted or ground food wastes (capable of passing through a screen with openings no larger than 25mm) may be discharged not less than 3 nautical miles from the nearest land. Other food wastes may be discharged not less than 12 nautical miles from the nearest land. Non-harmful cargo residues may be discharged not less than 12 nautical miles from the nearest land. Cleaning agents or additives in cargo hold, deck and external surfaces washing water may be discharged only if they are not harmful to the marine environment. Inside Special Areas designated under MARPOL Annex V, more stringent discharge requirements apply for the discharges of food wastes and cargo residues. Consult Annex V and the shipboard garbage management plan for details. Discharge of any type of garbage must be entered in the Garbage Record Book

Port Reception Facility key points to tackling adequacy Without causing delay to ships = know market share and break down by ships type (ST) using port Adequate to meet the needs of the ships = know ST waste streams generated/landed Port to ensure adequate facilities = to quantities and wastes landed ashore Does not provide mariners with a disincentive to use them; Contributes to the improvement of the marine environment = “allow for the ultimate disposal of ships’ wastes to take place in an environmentally appropriate way.”

PRF understood responsibility: Port/terminal operators PRFs meets national & local waste handling permit requirements for environmental & public health and waste are managed so that wastes and residues removed from ships cannot readily enter the water Common discharges: solid waste, oily wastes, sewage, paint related wastes, recyclables Challenging waste streams: EGCS wash water, BW, gray water, electronics, hazardous wastes, economizer wash water, international garbage
