COMPLIANCE 2008  Discharge Approvals  Inspections  Sampling Data  Annual Compliance letters

2008 Approvals  100% port calls from large cruise ships under the MOU, 4 vessels approved; 207 port calls  >1 nm and > 6 knots –NONE  Continuously –NORWEGIAN PEARL (22) –NORWEGIAN STAR (21) –GOLDEN PRINCESS (21) –STAR PRINCESS (21)  No request/approval –CELEBRITY CRUISES INFINITY (21) –CELEBRITY CRUISES MERCURY (11) –CELEBRITY CRUISES MILLENIUM (4) –HAL AMSTERDAM (19) –HAL OOSTERDAM (23) –HAL VOLENDAM (2) –HAL WESTERDAM (21) –HAL ZAANDAM (1) –REGENT SEVEN SEAS MARINER (1) –ROYAL CARIBBEAN RHAPSODY OF THE SEAS (17) –ROYAL CARIBBEAN SERENADE OF THE SEAS (2) (#) = PORT CALLS

COMPLIANCE EVALUATION  Monthly Sampling Data –Sampling done per MOU, submitted, meets requirements  WET Testing  Inspections –Allowed a minimum of once/season to verify compliance with MOU  Other Provisions  Compliance/Non-Compliance Notifications  Annual Compliance Reports

Inspections  Typical Inspection includes –Introductions/overview of plan for the day (prior notification given) –Control room  Run-through of how system works  Variety of questions on staffing, training, protocols…  Review of records –Tour of treatment system(s) –Observations of other waste streams on the ship –Sampling –Conclude –Approximately 2-3 hours in length –Similar to inspections for on-land plants

AWTS sampling Food Waste Oily Bilge Discharge Locations UV disinfection On-board sampling

2008 Inspections  Inspections Conducted –11 inspections conducted (all homeported vessels plus 4 additional)  Inspection findings –Operating well; more sampling on board for process control –Discharge protocols thorough with verification –Recommendations made –  Vessel due for WET testing  No discharge until UV operational  Copy of the MOU should be available –2 vessels operational problems with AWTS – not discharging –3 of 11 inspected traditional MSDs –Waste Minimization efforts impressive  Copies of discharge documents requested/reviewed –NWCA vessels not inspected, and for time period since inspection - submitted and reviewed – in compliance DATE OF INSPECTION VESSEL June 7, 2008 HAL OOSTERDAM June 22, 2008 HAL WESTERDAM June 22, 2008 STAR PRINCESS July 18, 2008 CELEBRITY INFINITY July 26, 2008 NORWEGIAN STAR July 26, 2008 GOLDEN PRINCESS August 22, 2008 HAL AMSTERDAM August 29, 2008 RCCL RHAPSODY OF THE SEAS September 14, 2008 NORWEGIAN PEARL September 22, 2008 CELEBRITY MERCURY October 1, 2008 CELEBRITY MILLENIUM

2008 Sampling  Sampling –Sampling data received and evaluated. Summary of data and data will be included in the 2008 annual report  pH all within , but some lower than WA WQ standard of 7.0  One BOD result higher (65 mg/l), TSS max of 11 mg/l  Chlorine all ND  Fecal mostly ND, highest was 12 #/100 ml  Ammonia ranged from 6.6 mg/l to 71 mg/l (avg = 32)  Dissolved Copper range = 1.3 ug/l to 135 ug/l  Dissolved Nickel range = 3.47 ug/l to 20 ug/l  Dissolved Zinc range = 23 ug/l to 350 ug/l

2008 Sampling cont. –WET testing  Required for vessels approved for continuous discharge –Once every two years if homeported (20 visits) or –Once every 40 port calls or turnarounds –All required WET testing submitted thus far, except for GOLDEN PRINCESS –Results submitted for NORWEGIAN STAR and NORWEGIAN PEARL  Surfactants/detergents and metals may be the issue this time in addition to ammonia

2008 Compliance Notifications  Compliance notifications –No reported incidents for 2008 season to date –Compliance letters  All in, no exceptions reported

2007 Assessment of Cruise Ship Environmental Effects in Washington  Recommendations –Ecology recommends MOU continue to be used as a complement to environmental regulations until regulations specific to cruise ship waste management in Washington are put in place –Ecology continue to inspect ships that discharge, including closely looking at wastewater management and other waste streams –Parties of MOU continue to work on WET testing evaluation –Parties of MOU and KC continue to work together in evaluating options for sewage sludge (biomass) handling –Ecology, cruise lines, and Health work to amend MOU incorporating DOH report recommendations –Cruise lines to conduct a thorough review of records on an on-going basis and at end of season to evaluate compliance and inspection recommendations to be implemented
