3 PSC IN THE BLACK SEA REGION Annual Report Foreword We are pleased to present the sixteenth issue of the Annual Report on Port State Control in the Black Sea region which is published under the auspices of the Port State Control Committee of the Black Sea MOU. Port State Control is of particular importance to the BS MOU member Authorities due to the role of shipping in region s trade, the sensitivity of the Black Sea basin and its coastline to environmental damage. PSC inspections are conducted to ensure that foreign ships visiting the Black Sea ports are seaworthy, do not pose a pollution risk, provide a healthy and safe environment and comply with relevant international regulations and within the scope of the member Authorities national governing laws and regulations. At the 7 th meeting of the Port State Control Committee in Sochi, Russian Federation, April, the BS MOU decided to introduce a new inspection scheme incorporation of expanded inspection to initial and more detailed inspection from st January 7 to harmonize further its inspection scheme with the Paris MOU, to the highest level. This PSC Annual report covers the period between st January and st December. During this period the BS MOU member Authorities conducted a total of, initial inspections, representing. per cent increase as compared with,997 initial inspections in. The regional inspection rate is 9.% which is. per cent increase as compared with. A total of 9 detentions were warranted to ships found with serious deficiencies. This represents a detention percentage of.% which is. per cent increase as compared with detentions in. During a total of, deficiencies were recorded. The average number of deficiencies per inspection was.; resulting in a. deficiency point decrease. The most significant number of operational deficiencies found in was in the area of safety of navigation, life saving appliances followed by fire safety measures and health protection, medical care, social security making up. per cent of the total deficiencies found. International Safety Management (ISM) related issues accounted for.7 per cent of all detainable deficiencies in the reporting period which is. per cent increase compared with. Thereby this area remains a significant concern and the BS MOU continues to scrutinize vessels coming into region for weaknesses in their Safety Management Systems. In further promoting safety and environment protection, Concentrated Inspection Campaign (CIC)s are conducted in conjunction with the Paris and Tokyo Memorandas. Between st September and th November, a CIC was carried out with respect to the Cargo Securing Arrangements with Tokyo MOU, IO MOU and Vinã del Mar Agreement. Through the launching new inspection scheme the BS MOU will further increase the pressure on the substandard ships to encourage them to improve their performance or to force them to leave the region.

6 Annual Report PSC IN THE BLACK SEA REGION Annual Report Overview The Governments of Black Sea States in the Strategic Action Plan for the Rehabilitation and Protection of the Black Sea (adopted at the Ministerial Conference held in Istanbul, - October, 99) decided to launch a harmonised system of port State control through the adoption of a Memorandum of Understanding on port State control. The Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control in the Black Sea Region (BS MOU) was completed and signed in Istanbul, Turkey on 7 April by representatives of the Maritime Authorities of Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania, the Russian Federation, Turkey and Ukraine. On December 9, the Memorandum entered into force in the Black Sea region for three maritime States accepted the BS MOU. By December, the BS MOU entered into effect for all maritime States in the Black Sea, namely: Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania, the Russian Federation, Turkey and Ukraine. The Port State Control Committee established under the Memorandum monitors and controls implementation and on-going operation of the Memorandum. The Committee consists of representatives of the maritime Authorities of the six member States and observers representatives from the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the International Labour Organization (ILO). The Committee granted observer status to the USCG, Paris MOU, MED MOU, West and Central Africa MOU, Riyadh MOU, the State Maritime Administration of the Republic of Azerbaijan and Commission on the Protection of the Black Sea Against Pollution. To coordinate daily activity of the organization, on the kind proposal by the Maritime Administration of Turkey, the MOU Authorities decided to establish Headquarter and the Secretariat in Istanbul. The Russian Federation has developed and launched the Black Sea Information System (BSIS), PSC computerized information system for the Black Sea MOU, basing on the technique used for the Asia Pacific Computerized Information System (APCIS), PSC information system for the Tokyo MOU, which was also developed by the Russia Federation. The BSIS provides necessary tools to assist PSC Officers to conduct inspections. PSC Officers use a comprehensive database which contains data received from a variety of sources on a large number of vessels. This information includes the general particulars of a vessel, and its PSC inspection history. To provide industry with the MOU news, procedures and inspection results the Black Sea MOU launched the internet web-site at containing general information on MOU, regularly updated detention list. Taking into account of successful operation of the BSIS, it was decided to start open publication of PSC inspection results in internet through a direct link to the MOU database providing on-the-fly inspection results. This annual report outlines recent activities on port State control in the Black Sea region, as well as international perspectives on port State control and includes the statistical port State inspection data conducted by the member Authorities of the BS MOU during the year.

7 PSC IN THE BLACK SEA REGION Annual Report Port State Control Committee The Seventeenth Meeting of the Black Sea Port State Control Committee was held in Sochi, Russian Federation from to April.

The Committee unanimously elected Mrs. Natalia KHARCENKO (Russian Federation) and Mr. Tamay ÇETIN (Turkey) as Chairperson and Vice Chairman of the Committee. The Committee agreed to conduct the BS MOU Port State Control Committee th meeting in Turkey April 7. Black Sea Information System (BSIS) The Black Sea Information System has been established in the Russian Federation, for the purpose of exchanging information on port State inspections, in order to make available to Authorities information on inspection of ships in other regional ports to assist them in their selection of foreign flag ships to be inspected and in the exercise of port State control on selected ships; and provide effective information exchange facilities regarding port State control in the region. As the further step for providing more transparent and timely information on the BS MOU PSC activities, the Committee gave its approvals to on-line publication of the ship risk profile, PSC inspection and detention data on the Memorandum web-site. Concentrated Inspection Campaign From st September to th November, the BS MOU carried out a Concentrated Inspection Campaign (CIC) on Cargo Securing Arrangements. This campaign involved all member States of the BS MOU and was conducted in conjunction with the Tokyo MOU, IO MOU and Vinã del Mar Agreement. The Tokyo MOU Guidelines and Questionnaire were utilized. During the course of the campaign a total of 9 inspections of individual ships using the CIC questionnaire. Of this quantity were detained (.9%). The CIC inspections, had no CIC-related detentions at all. Concentrated Inspection Campaign in 7 The Committee agreed to participate into the CIC on Safety of Navigation including ECDIS during the period of st September to th November 7 and to request the Secretariat to report progress and developments on the 7 CIC.
