Regulation 17 Internationaal Verdrag ter voorkoming van verontreiniging door schepen, 1973, zoals gewijzigd door het Protocol van 1978 daarbij

REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTROL OF EMISSIONS FROM SHIPS

1 Each Party undertakes to ensure the provision of facilities adequate to meet the:

1. needs of ships using its repair ports for the reception of ozone-depleting substances and equipment containing such substances when removed from ships;

2. needs of ships using its ports, terminals or repair ports for the reception of exhaust gas cleaning residues from an exhaust gas cleaning system;

without causing undue delay to ships, and

3. needs in ship-breaking facilities for the reception of ozone-depleting substances and equipment containing such substances when removed from ships.

2 The following States may satisfy the requirements in paragraph 1 of this regulation through regional arrangements when, because of “those States’ unique” circumstances, such arrangements are the only practical means to satisfy these requirements:

1. small island developing States; and

2. States the coastline of which borders on Arctic waters, provided that regional arrangements shall cover only ports within Arctic waters of those States.

Parties participating in a regional arrangement shall develop a Regional Reception Facilities Plan, taking into account the guidelines developed by the Organization.

The Government of each Party participating in the arrangement shall consult with the Organization, for circulation to the Parties of the present Convention on:

1. how the Regional Reception Facilities Plan takes into account the guidelines developed by the Organization;

2. particulars of the identified Regional Ships Waste Reception Centres taking into account the guidelines developed by the Organization; and

3. particulars of those ports with only limited facilities.

3 If a particular port or terminal of a Party is, taking into account the guidelines to be developed by the Organization, remotely located from, or lacking in, the industrial infrastructure necessary to manage and process those substances referred to in paragraph 1 of this regulation and therefore cannot accept such substances, then the Party shall inform the Organization of any such port or terminal so that this information may be circulated to all Parties and Member States of the Organization for their information and any appropriate action. Each Party that has provided the Organization with such information shall also notify the Organization of its ports and terminals where reception facilities are available to manage and process such substances.

4 Each Party shall notify the Organization for circulation to the Members of the Organization of all cases where the facilities provided under this regulation are unavailable or alleged to be inadequate.
