EU Directives are published on this site to aid cross referencing from UK legislation. Since IP completion day (31 December 2020 11.00 p.m.) no amendments have been applied to this version.
Plans shall cover all types of ship-generated waste and cargo residues originating from ships normally visiting the port and shall be developed according to the size of the port and the types of ships calling at that port.
The following elements shall be addressed in the plans:
an assessment of the need for port reception facilities, in light of the need of the ships normally visiting the port;
a description of the type and capacity of port reception facilities;
a detailed description of the procedures for the reception and collection of ship-generated waste and cargo residues;
description of the charging system;
procedures for reporting alleged inadequacies of port reception facilities;
procedures for ongoing consultations with port users, waste contractors, terminal operators and other interested parties; and
type and quantities of ship-generated waste and cargo residues received and handled.
In addition, the plans should include:
a summary of relevant legislation and formalities for delivery;
identification of a person or persons to be responsible for the implementation of the plan;
a description of the pre-treatment equipment and processes in the port, if any;

a description of how the ship-generated waste and cargo residues are disposed of.
The procedures for reception, collection, storage, treatment and disposal should conform in all respects to an environmental management scheme suitable for the progressive reduction of the environmental impact of these activities. Such conformity is presumed if the procedures are in compliance with the Council Regulation (EEC) No 1836/93 of 29 June 1993 allowing voluntary participation by companies in the industrial sector in a Community eco-management and audit scheme(1).
