3. 1. Reception Facilities Internal Policy 1. Case by case basis 2. Feedback forms, data gathering 3. Name and shame 4. Industry Cooperation External Policy 5. Driving change at IMO 6. Regional cooperation

4. Port or Terminal Summary of Problem EncounteredINTERTANKO CommentFollow-up Action Port of Tarragona 1.Compulsory discharge of cargo generated waste 2.Compulsory discharge regardless of ample/adequate storage available on board (105cbm slops, 2280cbm storage) Under the EU Directive, compulsory discharge is only required for ship generated wastes NOT cargo generated and when the ship cannot demonstrate that it has adequate dedicated storage capacity (Reference Article 7 of the EU Directive) Clarity of procedures at Port of Tarragona sought by INTERTANKO Clarity of procedures at Port of Tarragona sought by INTERTANKO (04/12/06) EMSA and European Commission informed regarding INTERTANKO’s position. Coryton BP Terminal, UK No slop reception facility at terminal for vessels discharging cargo. While MARPOL requires ports to provide facilities at loading terminals the EU Directive requires facilities at ports adequate to meet the needs of ships regularly calling. In this case it can be assumed that the terminal will be regularly visited by tankers discharging. Clarity of provision of facilities sought from Coryton refinery operators, BP Oil UK LtdClarity of provision of facilities sought from Coryton refinery operators, BP Oil UK Ltd (13/12/06) Huelva / Algeciras Refinery informed that slop-arm damaged, no discharge possible. Algeciras discharge also not possible. -- WilhelmshavenRefinery jetty will not take slops due to no time / very closed program at jetty. -- ImminghamSlops not accepted due to previous cargoes of orimulsion and crude oil. Member confirms slops ‘chemicals free oil and water only’. -- 2. Feedback forms, data gathering 1. Reception Facilities

5. 3. Name and shame

6. 4. Industry Cooperation - Industry Port Reception Facilities Forum Involving: INTERTANKOINTERCARGO ICSBIMCO ESPOEHMA/IHMA IAPHFONASBA EuroshoreOCIMF Supported by: IMO secretariatEMSA (European Commission) REMPECTransport Canada USCG / EPAROPME HELCOM 1. Reception Facilities

7. 5. Driving Change at IMO - Change of approach – reporting problem to a problem of inadequate facilities - Forum Action Plan = IMO Action Plan - Correspondence Group established and continuing - Standardised/Uniform ‘Advance Notification Form’ (ANF) and ‘Waste Delivery Receipt’ (WDR) - Guide to Good Practice 6. Regional Cooperation HELCOMThe Baltic Sea REMPECThe Mediterranean Sea European CommissionEU Directive Gulfs Area (ME)ROPME and MEMAC Asia-PacificConcentrated Reporting Campaign North AmericaUSCG Feedback Forms 1. Reception Facilities

8. Two External Policy Drivers: 1.IMO Convention implementation 2.Local, National and Regional Regulations 2. Ballast Water Management

9. 1.IMO Convention implementation i.Focus on Guidelines a.INTERTANKO/ICS Model Ballast Water Management Plan 3 rd Edition b.IMO Guidelines (5 key guidelines out of 16) Guidelines for Ballast Water Sampling Guidelines for Ballast Water Management and Development of Ballast Water Management Plans Guidelines for Ballast Water Exchange Guidelines for Ballast Water Exchange Design and Construction Standards Guidelines for Sediment Control on Ships

10. 1.IMO Convention implementation ii.Focus on Technology –Comparison of technologies tried/tested? –All systems should be type approved by the administration – those using active substances will need Basic approval and Final approval by IMO –Systems to watch...NEI Treatment Systems (Type approved), Alfa Laval and OceanSaver iii.Focus on Entry into Force Dates Assembly Resolution A.1005(25) Uncertainties raised by industry (INTERTANKO, ICS and OCIMF) in the availability of treatment equipment to meet the standards in the Convention for those ships constructed in 2009 (with ballast capacity <5000m3) So, ships constructed in 2009 will now have to install treatment technology at its second annual survey and no later than 31 December 2011. Review the application of the Convention for ships constructed in 2010 at MEPC 58 (October 2008) 2. Ballast Water Management

11. Two External Policy Drivers: 1.IMO Convention implementation 2.Local, National and Regional Regulations Australia (Victoria)New Zealand Argentina (Buenos Aires) Brazil Panama Canada PeruChile Russia (Novorossiysk) Georgia Lithuania (Klaipeda) Ukraine Israel USA 2. Ballast Water Management

12. 2. Ballast Water Management – Committee Action

13. IMO’s Convention Key Elements of the Mandatory Convention 1. Recycling Facilities 2. Mandatory reporting scheme 3. Ship Recycling Plan 4. Potentially Hazardous Materials 5. Inventory of Hazardous Materials (aka Green passport) The Bilateral agreement sticking point Industry Initiatives INTERTANKO – Interim Strategy Industry Working Group – Interim Measures 1.Yard Selection 2.Inventory of Hazardous Materials 3.Gas Freeing 4.Ship Recycling Plan 5.Reporting to Flag State 3. Ship Recycling

14. Distinguishing between the two issues Biofouling – Biological issue: invasive species, biodiversity risk Antifouling – Chemical issue: toxin / biocide, pollutant TBT, Irgarol, Diuron and Copper 4. Biofouling and Anti-fouling

15. Anti-fouling –Entry into force of the AFS Convention 18 th September 2008 Note EU will not allow any ship with tin-based anti-fouling on its hull after 1 st January 2008 –Environmental Committee Move towards biocide-free systems Comparison of silicon systems 4. Biofouling and Anti-fouling

16. Biofouling Biofouling as an issue for the IMO Externalskin / shell plating - typically where the coating is scratched (bow stem, bulb), missing, mismatched or exhausted (e.g. dry-dock support strips) –hi-wear areas (rudder, waterline) –anode blocks –uncoated areas (prop, rudder pivot) –sea chests –thruster tunnels, grills, azimuth units, etc Internalbilge spaces, strainer boxes, seawater pipe work 4. Biofouling and Anti-fouling

17. Biofouling Biofouling as an issue for the IMO Development of international measures for minimizing the translocation of invasive species through biofouling of ships Consideration would be given to: –developing Guidelines for the adoption by MEPC –linking measures to the AFS Convention –linking measures to the BWM Convention –developing a new Convention Future direction Continued development of national requirements: Australia, New Zealand, California AB740 Industry pro-activity required –Assessment of scale –Risk based approach –Practical measures: initiaves being reviewed 4. Biofouling and Anti-fouling

18. Environmental Awareness Training Environmental Awareness Training Courses Heriot-Watt University ITOPF Energy Conservation On board awareness campaign Consider further the establishment of a benchmarking scheme for energy consumption Environmental Benchmarking Requires Agreement on what significant aspects to record and benchmark : GHGs: CO2 and VOCs, SOx, Sludge and oily bilge water, Garbage and Sewage Agreement on which formulas to use: MEPC’s Voluntary Indexing of Ships Guidelines INTERTANKO/Tim Gunner’s GHG Indexing of Ships BP benchmarking formula expanded 5. Environmental Awareness and Benchmarking

19. 6. Other issues Whale Strikes Predominantly a National and Regional issue 1. 1.Oman Whale and Dolphin reporting 2. 2.Killer Whale Recovery Plan (NOAA) 3. 3.North Atlantic Right Whale (NOAA) International developments IMO (NAV) Traffic Separation Scheme requirements, Bay of Fundy and Port of Boston IWC Proposals – –Adopt national, regional and local legislation – –Whale data on radar – –Crew training Environmental Committee Navigational measures before slow steaming Reporting encouraged

20. 6. Other issues Environmental Organisation Liaison WWF: Antifouling systems, Port reception facilities, Air emissions from shipping IUCN: Whale and dolphin conservation, Biofouing Sea Alarm Foundation: Support and promote MEPA’s: HELMEPA, CYMEPA, AUSMEPA, TURMEPA, NAMEPA etc. Greenpeace: Ship recycling FOEI: Reception facilities and ballast water
