Procedures for dealing with ballast water include exchange of ballast at sea and discharge at reception facilities.

MEPC at its fifty third session adopted guidelines for ballast water management equivalence, guidelines for ballast water exchange, guidelines for ballast water management systems, guidelines for ballast water management and the development of ballast water management plans, and the procedure for approval of ballast water management systems that make use of active substances (see IMO document MEPC 53 WP.16).

Harmful aquatic organisms in ballast water

356. It is estimated that about 10 billion tonnes of ballast water is transferred each year.

They ended up swimming through ballast water that had oil in it.

It also established a ballast water review group to determine whether appropriate technologies are available to achieve the ballast water performance standard required under regulation D 2.

Control of harmful organisms and pathogens in ballast water

Because when tankers carry oil they have to have ballast at some point, so when they're empty, they have the ballast water in there.

When they come back, they actually dump this oily ballast water into the ocean.

52. Further calls upon States to accelerate the development of measures to address the problem of invasive alien species in ballast water, and urges the International Maritime Organization to finalize the International Convention on the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments

Discharged ballast water is said to be the most prominent medium for transferring new or alien species.

Pump.

As ships travel faster and faster, the survival rates of species carried in ballast tanks has increased.

(c) the actual filling pressure

pressure_bar kPa gauge and degree of filling_ in kg for each refrigerated liquefied gas permitted for transport.

CA Fracking.

The water pressure's too strong.

358. Recommendations in the Guidelines for dealing with the problem, including ways to reduce the chances of taking harmful organisms on board, include informing local agents and or ships of areas and situations where uptake of ballast water should be minimized, such as areas with known populations of harmful pathogens advising ships to avoid loading ballast water in very shallow water or in areas where propellers may stir up sediment and avoiding the unnecessary discharge of ballast.

IMO adopted the new Guidelines for Ships Operating in Arctic Ice Covered Water in 2002, and a new convention to prevent the potentially devastating effects of alien invasive species in ballast water, the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, in February 2004.

357. The Guidelines for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water to Minimize the Transfer of Harmful Aquatic Organisms and Pathogens, which were adopted by the IMO Assembly at its twentieth session by resolution A.868(20), are aimed at minimizing the introduction of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens from ships ballast water and associated sediments while protecting the safety of ships.

Appendix 2 of the Guidelines provides guidance on the safety aspects of ballast water exchange at sea (see also A 52 487, paras. 324 325).

Maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) means the maximum effective gauge pressure permissible at the top of the shell of a loaded portable tank in its operating position including the highest effective pressure during filling and discharge

The introduction of non native species or diseases, including from ballast water and hull fouling, is a global concern.

Problems occur where the water taken on board for ballasting a vessel contains aquatic organisms, which may cause harmful algal blooms after their release, or pathogens, which can have serious consequences for human health.

362. Inadequate reception facilities for dirty ballast water, waste oil and garbage present a serious worldwide problem for the shipping industry.

60. Welcomes the convening by the International Maritime Organization of a diplomatic conference to adopt an international convention for the control and management of ships' ballast waters and sediments

The current will carry us across.

The resolution notes the objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity and that the transfer and introduction of alien aquatic species with ballast water threatens the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity.

We take water and push it against a membrane.

The first frack job was in '47.

We can squeeze the fish for oil. It's better than water.

When the shell is to be subjected to a significant vacuum before filling or during discharge it shall be designed to withstand an external pressure of at least 0.9 bar gauge above the internal pressure and shall be proven at that pressure.

314. Developments in IMO in addressing the problem of the introduction of unwanted aquatic organisms and pathogens through the discharge of ships ballast water are presented in the section of the present report dealing with pollution from vessels (see paras. 356 359).

Water obtained from potable water supply schemes through house connections, yard taps, public standpipes, boreholes with handpumps and protected dug wells are defined as sources of safe drinking water.

The breakdown for the maintenance and backlog clearance budgets is provided in annexes II and IV.

Holding time means the time that will elapse from the establishment of the initial filling condition until the pressure has risen due to heat influx to the lowest set pressure of the pressure limiting device(s)
