Here&#8217;s a breakdown of its basic requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Written Procedures:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Minimization:<\/strong> Strategies for reducing garbage generation onboard, such as avoiding single-use plastics, efficient inventory management, and proper packaging.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Collection:<\/strong> Procedures for collecting and segregating garbage into the designated MARPOL categories (plastics, food waste, domestic waste, etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Storage:<\/strong> Guidelines for proper storage of garbage in designated areas and containers, considering segregation, labeling, and hygiene requirements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Processing:<\/strong> Procedures for any onboard garbage processing, like compaction or incineration, including operating instructions and safety precautions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Disposal:<\/strong> Clear instructions for the disposal of garbage, whether it&#8217;s discharge at sea (when permitted) or delivery to port reception facilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Equipment and Facilities:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Garbage Storage Areas:<\/strong> Description of the location, capacity, and intended use of garbage storage areas on board.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Processing Equipment:<\/strong> Description and operating instructions for any onboard garbage processing equipment (e.g., incinerator, compactor).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Garbage Collection and Handling Equipment:<\/strong> Details of the bins, containers, and other equipment used for garbage collection and handling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Crew Responsibilities:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Designated Person:<\/strong> Identification of the crew member(s) responsible for implementing and overseeing the GMP.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Training:<\/strong> Outline of training programs for crew members on garbage management procedures, including separation, handling, and disposal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Record Keeping:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Garbage Record Book:<\/strong> Procedures for maintaining the Garbage Record Book, documenting all garbage handling and disposal activities, as required by MARPOL Annex V.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Port Reception Facilities:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Procedures:<\/strong> Outline the procedures for delivering garbage to port reception facilities, including communication with port authorities and documentation requirements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>List of Facilities:<\/strong> A list of available port reception facilities, their contact information, and the types of garbage they accept.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6. Special Areas:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Additional Requirements:<\/strong> If the vessel operates in MARPOL Special Areas with stricter garbage disposal regulations, the GMP should include specific procedures for compliance in those areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>7. Emergency Procedures:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Spill Response:<\/strong> Procedures for responding to accidental garbage spills, including containment and cleanup measures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>8. Review and Updates:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Regular Review:<\/strong> The GMP should be periodically reviewed and updated to reflect changes in regulations, ship operations, or best practices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Additional Considerations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Clarity and Accessibility:<\/strong> The GMP should be written in clear language, easily understandable by the crew, and readily available onboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Company Policy:<\/strong> The GMP should align with the company&#8217;s environmental policy and commitment to responsible waste management.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>Crew Involvement:<\/strong> Encourage crew participation in developing and implementing the GMP to foster a sense of ownership and responsibility for garbage management.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By adhering to these basic requirements and tailoring the GMP to the specific needs of the vessel, ship operators can effectively manage garbage onboard, minimize their environmental impact, and ensure compliance with MARPOL regulations.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion\" style=\"border-color: #f1f1f1; border-top-left-radius: 8px; border-top-right-radius: 8px; border-bottom-left-radius: 8px; border-bottom-right-radius: 8px; \" id=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-block-\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-title-wrap\" style=\"background-color: #f1f1f1;\" aria-controls=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-2-bda05d7c-d89b-4b32-a85f-ac59e204e754\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-title ub-content-toggle-title-bda05d7c-d89b-4b32-a85f-ac59e204e754\" style=\"color: #000000; \">E-Waste<\/p>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-toggle-wrap right\" style=\"color: #000000;\"><span class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-state-indicator wp-block-ub-chevron-down open\"><\/span><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-expanded=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-ub-content-toggle-accordion-content-wrap\" id=\"ub-content-toggle-panel-2-bda05d7c-d89b-4b32-a85f-ac59e204e754\">\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">E-Waste, short for<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Electronic Waste, refers to discarded electrical or electronic devices that have reached the end of their useful life or are no longer desired.
