Positive Policy Impact HIV - revised (June 07)

decreased boardings by 50%

1st time US arrivals not automatic HIV

No double jeopardy for Certain Dangerous Cargoes (CDC) vessels

COTP flexibility to downgrade

PSC - revised (June 07)

Smarter targeting = Fewer random *(how much…50%...what are the numbers)

Modification to targeting rules = less redundancy (LPOC rules)

ISPS/MTSA Security Compliance

Vessel Security Level Verify ISSC Verify Ship Security Performance Review the CSR and other Records Ship ID (IMO number) Manning Non-Convention Vessel Security

Compliance Examination

Objective - determine whether vessel meets International Conventions and U.S. Domestic Law


Verify Ship Security Performance

Verify Ship Security Plan (SSP) is onboard and safeguarded

SSP not subject to direct inspection

If clear grounds exist that required security procedures are not in place, the PSCO will investigate.

PSCO may examine the relevant sections of the plan after exhausting other means to determine compliance.

PSCO must obtain the consent of the vessel’s flag State, or the master of the vessel as specified in ISPS Code Part A, 9.8.1 before examining relevant portions of the SSP.
