Résumé

These Regulations provide for the control and management of ships' ballast water and sediments. They require ships to which these Regulations apply, to carry and implement an approved Ballast Water Management Plan which details the actions to be taken which shall be compliant with these Regulations and the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, 2004. The Regulations also require ships to carry a ballast water record book for the purpose of recording ballast water transactions within the ship which includes ballasting and deballasting operations and ballast water internal transfers. They apply to- (a) ships entitled to fly the flag of Fiji; (b) ships not entitled to fly the flag of Fiji but which operate under the maritime laws of Fiji and are issued with Coasting-trade Permits; and (c) foreign ships entering Fiji waters and berthed at ports and at offshore terminals or offshore platforms in Fiji. The obligations, duties, legal processes and rights provided for under the Convention shall be deemed to be requirements enforceable in accordance with these Regulations in relation to ships to which these Regulations apply. The Regulations also provide with respect to facilities for the reception and disposal of sediments at ports, surveys, certification, inspections and enforcement. Surveys and inspections may be carried out at the request of the appropriate authorities of a Port State that is a Party to the Convention.
