4.0 GUIDELINES
4.1 Introduction MARPOL includes regulations aimed at preventing and minimizing pollution from vessels – both accidental pollution and from routine operations.
To complement residue / waste minimization and management practices on board the vessels, the shipping industry needs access to adequate PRFs to enable compliance with the provisions of the Convention. Therefore, MARPOL places an obligation on States Parties to provide adequate reception facilities in their Ports.
The following regulations stipulate this requirement for each type of MARPOL residue / waste identified:
a. Regulation 38 of Annex I; b. Regulation 12 of Annex IV; c. Regulation 8 of Annex V; and
As per MARPOL annex I & V, the Arabian Gulf area is considered as “Special Area”.
The special hydrographic and ecological characteristics of the fragile marine environment of the region and its particular vulnerability to pollution due to high shipping traffic density is among other major reasons attributed to the "Special Area" status to the Arabian Gulf waters.
In addition to the basic rules in the MARPOL annexes, MIC and RLC Industrial Ports have implemented Regional and National requirements, which are enforced by MOE through the Permitting System. The environmental Consent To Operate (CTO) specifies source-specific standards and requirements (based on the Environmental Executive By-Law) and other conditions with which the Ports must comply.
Port Regulations require vessels calling at MIC and RLC Ports to comply with MARPOL pollution prevention requirements by:
Prohibiting the discharge of oily contaminated waters and residues into the sea
Not authorizing the discharge of non treated sewage into the sea
Requiring the compliance with MARPOL garbage management obligation.
5.0 WASTE RECEPTION FACILITIES AND ARRANGEMENTS AT
INDUSTRIAL PORTS
5.1 MARPOL Annex I Oily Waste This annex covers oily waste generated from machinery spaces like sludge and bilge water.
The vessels disposing of waste oils at MIC and RLC Ports shall comply with the standard delivery connection as stipulated in Regulation 13 of annex I to MARPOL 73/78 Convention.
The collection, transfer and disposal of any ship generated oily waste are coordinated by the respective shipping agency with the appointed authorized oil waste transporter (service provider).
Although the Port does not provide the reception facilities, facilities are made available at the Port through a local shipping agency.
Reception of bilge water and sludge from the vessel shall be effected by means of marked tank-carrying vehicles provided alongside the vessel.
