Barents 2020 Phase 4 Working group RN07
Objective and scope of RN07 work in Phase 4 • Objective: Specify and propose a regional standard for regular emissions and discharges from ships and offshore units in the Barents Sea, including applying the IMO MARPOL Special Area (SA) requirements. • Scope of work: • Based on the results from the 2009 phase 3 work prepare a proposal for issues for inclusion in the standard, and draft text for review. Tentatively the standard will cover: • Regular emissions to air • Regular discharges to sea • Waste management • MARPOL SA requirements • Environmental control and monitoring • The MARPOL SA proposal to be proposed to national authorities which again may present this to IMO.
Key challenges • Get a common understanding of what this standard should be and how it shall be applied (i.e. reference standard vs. regulative requirements) • Work scope covers many topics i.e. a wide scope which will require extensive work effort to achieve
Goals for this workshop • Familiarize with and clarify scope of work • Familiarize with colleague experts • Identify work tasks and develop a work plan and schedule (short and long term) • Identify and dedicate tasks and responsibilities
