4.11.3 Reporting inadequacies of port reception facilities
Since 2006, IMO has developed an action plan to tackle the problem of the inadequacy of port reception
facilities.
If ship finds that the waste disposal facilities at a port are inadequate for any reason, the
Ma
s
ter
or
O
ff
i
c
er
responsible in the first instance
should
inform the
Port

ff

c
er
(through Harbour Control)
who will investigate the complaint and rectify any deficiency.
If the proper facilities cannot be provided to the
Ma
s
ter
’s reasonable satisfaction, the ship is to complete the
form
BOS-FRM-0303.00012 – Reporting inadequacies of PRF
and forwards it to the
Operation
s
Mana
g
er
.
He/she forwards it to the Administration of the Flag State who shall notify the IMO and the port State of the
occurrence.
The data collected is then used by IMO to strongly encourage Member States to fulfil their treaty obligations
on providing adequate reception facilities. Reporting is consolidated in a database that can be checked at
“
http:/gisis.imo.org/Public”
/.
Ma
s
ter
s
are encouraged to make regular updates to the availability of reception
facilities.
The format is applicable for:
-
Oily wastes such as mixtures, bilge water, slops, sludge (“MARPOL Annex I”);
-
Noxious liquid substances from tank washings and cargo residues (“MARPOL Annex II”);
-
Sewage (“MARPOL Annex IV”);
-
Garbage (“MARPOL Annex V”);
