The Importance and Impact of Cruise Ship Tourism: Key Facts Increased Capacity US$ 39.6 billion Global Cruise Market in 2015= US$ 39.6 billion (Generated by higher prices and capacity) Passengers in 2015 Passengers in 2019 Source: Cruise Market Watch 292 vessels 453,211 Passengers vessels 486,385 Passengers (7.5% increase) OriginPercentage North America67.3% Rest of the World 2.9% Europe29.8% OriginPercentage North America55.8% Rest of the World19.1% Europe25.1%

The Importance and Impact of Cruise Ship Tourism: PRF A study sponsored by the USCG estimated the quantities of waste produced by ships is comparable to the amount of municipal waste produced at port cities in the region. Tourism growth in the Caribbean Increased contamination to marine and terrestrial environments. Involving GarbageUntreated SewageAir PollutionFrom Vessels Economic Activity Waste Increases

MARPOL Annex V –Wider Caribbean Region (WCR) Why don’t Cruise Ships leave waste ashore in the Caribbean? No $$ or Market Demand for Waste/ Recycling Limited resources for Waste facilities in Small States Inadequate Collection and Disposal Methods Regional Challenge

Areas of Synergy CIP and IMO - MARPOL 1) Increase Transparency Promote technical exchanges and reporting of alleged inadequacies through IMO databases and procedures OAS/CIP Cooperation Agreement with IMO 2) Capacity- Building Establish common certification procedures U.S. Coast Guard Certification of Adequacy (COA) Program 3) Promote ISO Standards U.S. Coast Guard Study recommends creating a Regional Collection System to assist small island ports handle ship-generated waste. ISO Part I &II

CIP-US Coast Guard Proposal: ‘Green’ Port Reception Facilities Common focus on: (1) Administrative and legal matters (2) Technology Exchanges (3) Infrastructure and support services A Green and Modernized Port Reception Facility (PRF) shared by ports/terminals to manage ship generated waste, and cargo residues in the Americas. Authorized vendors can directly remove recycling and incinerated waste from ships to dispose of them at approved shore side facilities. A model PRF may serve as a successful practice promoting the exchange of experiences and strengthening hemispheric cooperation.
