(2)Petletnega obdobja veljavnosti Mednarodnega spričevala o preprečevanju onesnaževanja zraka ni dovoljeno podaljšati, razen v skladu s tretjim odstavkom.

(3)Če ladja v času, ko Mednarodno spričevalo o preprečevanju onesnaževanja zraka poteče, ni v pristanišču države, pod katere zastavo ima pravico pluti ali v kateri se opravi pregled, lahko uprava veljavnost spričevala podaljša za največ pet mesecev. Tako podaljšanje je odobreno samo z namenom, da lahko ladja priplove v državo, pod katere zastavo ima pravico pluti ali v kateri se bo opravil pregled, in to samo v primerih, ko se to zdi ustrezno in smotrno. Po prihodu v državo, pod katere zastavo ima pravico pluti ali v kateri bo opravljen pregled, ladja nima pravice, da bi na podlagi takega podaljšanja zapustila pristanišče ali državo, ne da bi pridobila novo Mednarodno spričevalo o preprečevanju onesnaževanja zraka.

(4)Mednarodno spričevalo o preprečevanju onesnaževanja zraka preneha veljati v kateri koli od naslednjih okoliščin: (a) če inšpekcijski nadzor in pregled nista opravljena v rokih, določenih po 5. pravilu te priloge; (b) če so bile na opremi, sistemih, napeljavah, postopkih ali materialu, na katere se nanaša ta priloga, brez izrecne odobritve uprave uvedene bistvene spremembe, razen neposredne nadomestitve take opreme ali napeljav z opremo ali napeljavami, ki izpolnjujejo zahteve te priloge. Za namen 13. pravila bistvena sprememba vključuje vsakršno spreminjanje ali prilagajanje sistemov, napeljav ali postopkov pri dizelskem motorju, katerega posledica bi bila preseganje omejitve dušikovih oksidov za ta motor, ali (c) po prepisu ladje pod zastavo druge države. Novo spričevalo se izda šele, ko se vlada, ki izda novo spričevalo, popolnoma prepriča, da ladja v celoti izpolnjuje zahteve iz 5. pravila te priloge. Če se v treh mesecih po prepisu med pogodbenicama to zahteva, mora vlada pogodbenice, pod katere zastavo je ladja plula, poslati upravi druge pogodbenice izvod Mednarodnega spričevala o preprečevanju onesnaževanja zraka, ki ga je ladja imela pred prepisom, in izvode ustreznih poročil o pregledih, če so na voljo.

(1)Ko je ladja v pristanišču ali predobalnem terminalu pod jurisdikcijo druge pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997, lahko inšpektorji, ki jih je ta pogodbenica pravilno pooblastila, opravijo pregled v zvezi z operativnimi zahtevami po tej prilogi, kadar obstajajo jasni razlogi za sum, da poveljnik ali posadka ni seznanjena z bistvenimi ladijskimi postopki, ki se nanašajo na preprečevanje onesnaževanja zraka z ladij.

(2)V okoliščinah, navedenih v prvem odstavku tega pravila, pogodbenica naredi vse, da zagotovi, da ladja ne bo plula, dokler se stanje ne uredi v skladu z zahtevami te priloge.

(3)Za to pravilo se uporabljajo postopki v zvezi z nadzorom pomorske inšpekcije, ki je predpisan v 5. členu te konvencije.

(4)Nič v tem pravilu se ne razlaga tako, kot da omejuje pravice in obveznosti pogodbenice, ki opravlja nadzor nad operativnimi zahtevami, ki so v tej konvenciji izrecno določene.

(1)Pogodbenice te priloge sodelujejo pri odkrivanju kršitev in izvajanju določb te priloge ter pri tem uporabljajo vse ustrezne in izvedljive ukrepe za odkrivanje kršitev in okoljsko spremljanje, ustrezne postopke za prijavljanje in zbiranje dokazov.

(2)Ladjo, za katero ta priloga velja, lahko v katerem koli pristanišču ali predobalnem terminalu pogodbenice pregledajo inšpektorji, ki jih je ta pogodbenica imenovala ali pooblastila, da preverijo, ali je ladja oddala v okolje snovi, ki jih ta priloga navaja kot kršitev. Če je ob inšpekcijskem nadzoru ugotovljena kršitev te priloge, se upravi zaradi ustreznega ukrepanja pošlje prijava.

(3)Vsaka pogodbenica upravi predloži morebitno dokazilo o tem, da je ladja oddala v okolje snovi, ki jih ta priloga navaja kot kršitev. Če je to izvedljivo, pristojni organ prve pogodbenice poveljnika ladje obvesti o domnevni kršitvi.

(4)Po prejemu takega dokazila tako obveščena uprava razišče zadevo in lahko od druge pogodbenice, ki jo je obvestila, zahteva nadaljnja ali trdnejša dokazila o domnevni kršitvi. Če se uprava prepriča, da dokazila zadoščajo za uvedbo postopka v zvezi z domnevno kršitvijo, mora čim prej sprožiti postopek v skladu s svojo zakonodajo. Uprava pogodbenico, ki je prijavila domnevno kršitev, in Organizacijo takoj obvesti o sprejetih ukrepih.

(5)Pogodbenica lahko tudi pregleda ladjo, za katero ta priloga velja, ko vstopa v pristanišča ali predobalne terminale pod njeno jurisdikcijo, če od katere koli pogodbenice prejme zahtevo za preiskavo skupaj z zadostnimi dokazili, da je ladja oddala v okolje snovi, ki jih ta priloga navaja kot kršitev. Poročilo o taki preiskavi se pošlje pogodbenici, ki je preiskavo zahtevala, in upravi, da se lahko sprejmejo ustrezni ukrepi po tej konvenciji.

(6)Mednarodno pravo, ki se nanaša na preprečevanje, zmanjševanje in nadziranje onesnaževanja morskega okolja z ladij, vključno z zakonodajo, povezano z izvajanjem in varstvenimi ukrepi, in velja med uporabo ali razlago te priloge, se smiselno uporablja za določbe in standarde, opredeljene v tej prilogi.

(1)Ob upoštevanju 3. pravila je vsaka namerna emisija snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč, prepovedana. Namerne emisije vključujejo emisije, ki nastanejo med vzdrževanjem, servisiranjem, popravljanjem ali odstranjevanjem sistemov ali opreme, ne vključujejo pa minimalnih izpustov, povezanih z lovljenjem ali recikliranjem snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč. Emisije, ki so posledica uhajanja ali iztekanja snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč, pa naj bo to uhajanje ali iztekanje namerno ali nenamerno, lahko urejajo pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997.

(2)Nove naprave, ki vsebujejo snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč, so prepovedane na vseh ladjah, razen novih napeljav z delno halogeniranimi klorofluoroogljikovodiki (HCFC), ki so dovoljene do 1. januarja 2020.

(3)Snovi iz tega pravila in oprema, ki vsebuje take snovi, se po odstranitvi z ladij oddajo v ustrezne prevzemne obrate.

(1)(a) To pravilo velja za: (i) vsak dizelski motor z izhodno močjo več kot 130 kW, ki je nameščen na ladji, zgrajeni 1. januarja 2000 ali pozneje, in (ii) vsak dizelski motor z izhodno močjo več kot 130 kW, ki je bil po 1. januarju 2000 bistveno predelan. (b) To pravilo ne velja za: (i) rezervne dizelski motorje, motorje, nameščene v rešilnih čolnih, in za kakršne koli naprave ali opremo, namenjeno zgolj za uporabo v sili, in (ii) motorje, nameščene na ladjah, ki plovejo samo v vodah pod suverenostjo ali jurisdikcijo države, pod katere zastavo ima ladja pravico pluti, če za te motorje uprava uvede nadomestne kontrolne meritve NOx. (c) Ne glede na določbe pododstavka (a) tega odstavka uprava lahko dovoli, da se iz uporabe tega pravila izključi vsak dizelski motor, ki je na zgrajeni ladji ali ladji, ki je bila bistveno predelana, nameščen pred datumom začetka veljavnosti tega protokola, če ladja plove samo do pristanišč ali predobalnih terminalov v državi, pod katere zastavo ima ladja pravico pluti.

(2)(a) V tem pravilu izraz »bistvena predelava« pomeni spremembo motorja, pri kateri (i) se motor zamenja z novim motorjem, konstruiranim 1. januarja 2000 ali po tem datumu, ali (ii) se motor bistveno spremeni v skladu s Tehničnim kodeksom NOx ali (iii) se največja nazivna moč motorja poveča za več kot 10%. (b) Emisija NOx, ki je posledica sprememb iz pododstavka (a) tega odstavka, se dokumentira v skladu s Tehničnim kodeksom NOx, da jo odobri uprava.

(3)(a) Ob upoštevanju 3. pravila te priloge je delovanje vsakega dizelskega motorja, za katerega velja to pravilo, prepovedano, razen kadar emisija dušikovih oksidov iz motorja (izračunana kot skupna ponderirana emisija NO(2)) ne presega naslednjih meja: (i) 17,0 g/kWh, če je n manj kot 130 vrt./min. (ii) 45,0*n (-0,2) g/kWh, če je n 130 ali več, vendar manj kot 2000 vrt./min. (iii) 9,8 g/kWh, če je n 2000 vrt./min. ali več, pri čemer je n = nazivna hitrost motorja (vrtljaji ročične gredi na minuto). Kadar se uporablja gorivo, sestavljeno iz mešanic ogljikovodikov, pridobljenih iz predelave nafte, morata postopek preizkušanja in metoda merjenja ustrezati Tehničnemu kodeksu NOx in upoštevati cikluse preizkušanja in ponderacijske koeficiente, opisane v Dodatku II k tej prilogi. (b) Ne glede na določbe pododstavka (a) tega odstavka je delovanje dizelskega motorja dovoljeno, kadar: (i) se na motorju uporablja sistem čiščenja izpušnih plinov, ki ga uprava odobri v skladu s Tehničnim kodeksom NOx, da se ladijske emisije NOx zmanjšajo vsaj do meja, določenih v pododstavku (a), ali (ii) se uporablja neka druga enakovredna metoda, ki jo odobri uprava in pri kateri se upoštevajo ustrezna navodila Organizacije za zmanjšanje ladijskih emisij NOx vsaj do meja, določenih v pododstavku (a) tega odstavka. Splošne zahteve

(1)Vsebnost žvepla v vsakem gorivu na ladjah ne sme presegati 4,5% m/m.

(2)Svetovno povprečje vsebnosti žvepla v težkem gorivu, dobavljenem za uporabo na ladjah, se nadzoruje ob upoštevanju navodil, ki jih bo pripravila Organizacija. Zahteve na območjih nadzora nad emisijami SOx

(3)V tem pravilu območja nadzora nad emisijami SOx vključujejo: (a) območje Baltskega morja, opredeljeno v pododstavku (b) prvega odstavka 10. pravila, in (b) vsako drugo morsko območje, zajeto v Dodatku III k tej prilogi, vključno s pristaniškimi območji, ki jih določi Organizacija po merilih in postopkih za označevanje območij nadzora nad emisijami SOx, da se prepreči onesnaževanje zraka z ladij.

(4)Če ladje plovejo na območjih nadzora nad emisijami SOx, mora biti izpolnjen vsaj eden od naslednjih pogojev: (a) vsebnost žvepla v gorivu, uporabljenem na ladjah na območju nadzora nad emisijami SOx, ne presega 1,5% m/m; (b) uporablja se sistem čiščenja izpušnih plinov, ki ga odobri uprava ob upoštevanju navodil, ki jih bo pripravila Organizacija, za zmanjšanje skupne emisije žveplovih oksidov z ladij, vključno s pomožnimi in glavnimi pogonskimi motorji, na 6,0 g SOx/kWh ali manj, izračunane kot skupna masa emisije žveplovih oksidov. Odpadni tokovi, ki nastajajo pri uporabi take opreme, se ne smejo izpuščati v zaprta pristanišča, zalive in morske rokave, razen če ladja lahko izčrpno dokumentira, da taki odpadni tokovi ob upoštevanju meril, ki jih organi države pristanišča sporočijo Organizaciji, ne vplivajo negativno na ekosisteme takih zaprtih pristanišč, zalivov in morskih rokavov. Organizacija razpošlje merila vsem pogodbenicam konvencije ali (c) uporablja se kakršna koli preverljiva in izvedljiva tehnološka metoda za omejevanje emisij SOx do ravni, enake tisti iz pododstavka (b). Te metode odobri uprava ob upoštevanju navodil, ki jih bo pripravila Organizacija.

(5)Dobavitelj v skladu z zahtevo 18. pravila te priloge dokumentira vsebnost žvepla v gorivu iz prvega odstavka in pododstavka (a) četrtega odstavka tega pravila.

(6)Ladje, ki uporabljajo ločeno gorivo, v skladu s pododstavkom (a) četrtega odstavka tega pravila omogočajo dovolj časa, da se sistem za dovajanje goriva popolnoma očisti vseh goriv, ki presegajo 1,5% m/m vsebnosti žvepla, pred vstopom na območje nadzora nad emisijami SOx. Količina goriva z nizko vsebnostjo žvepla (do 1,5% vsebnosti žvepla) v vsaki cisterni ter datum, ura in položaj ladje ob menjavi energenta se vpisujejo v ladijski dnevnik, ki ga predpiše uprava.

(1)Če emisije hlapljivih organskih spojin (HOS) s tankerjev urejajo pristanišča ali terminali pod jurisdikcijo pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997, se urejajo v skladu z določbami tega pravila.

(2)Pogodbenica Protokola iz leta 1997, ki določi pristanišča ali terminale pod svojo jurisdikcijo, v katerih se emisije HOS urejajo s pravili, pošlje Organizaciji uradno obvestilo. To uradno obvestilo vključuje informacije o velikosti tankerjev, ki bodo pod nadzorom, tovoru, za katerega se zahtevajo sistemi nadzora nad emisijami hlapov, in o datumu začetka takega nadzora. Uradno obvestilo se pošlje vsaj šest mesecev pred datumom začetka nadzora.

(3)Vlada vsake pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997, ki določi pristanišča ali terminale, v katerih se emisije HOS s tankerjev urejajo s pravili, zagotovi, da bodo v imenovanih pristaniščih in terminalih nameščeni sistemi za nadzor nad emisijami hlapov, ki jih ta vlada odobri ob upoštevanju varnostnih standardov, ki jih pripravi Organizacija, in da bodo ti sistemi delovali varno in tako, da ladja ne bo imela nepotrebne zamude.

(4)Organizacija razpošlje seznam pristanišč in terminalov, ki so jih določile pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997, v vednost drugim pogodbenicam Protokola iz leta 1997 in državam članicam Organizacije.

(5)Vsi tankerji, katerih emisije hlapov se nadzorujejo v skladu z določbami drugega odstavka tega pravila, so opremljeni s sistemom za zbiranje hlapov, ki ga odobri uprava ob upoštevanju varnostnih standardov, ki jih pripravi Organizacija, in tak sistem uporabljajo med nakladanjem takega tovora. Terminali, ki imajo sisteme za nadzor nad emisijami hlapov nameščene v skladu s tem pravilom, lahko obstoječe tankerje, ki niso opremljeni s sistemi za zbiranje hlapov, sprejmejo še tri leta po datumu začetka nadzora, ki je določen v drugem odstavku.

(6)To pravilo se za ladje za prevoz plina uporablja samo tedaj, ko vrsta sistema za natovarjanje in zadrževanje tovora omogoča varno hrambo nemetanskih HOS na ladji oziroma njihovo varno vrnitev na obalo.

(1)Če ne gre za določbo petega odstavka, je sežiganje na ladji dovoljeno samo v ladijski sežigalni peči.

(1)(a) Če ne gre za določbo pododstavka (b) tega odstavka, mora vsaka sežigalna peč, nameščena na ladji 1. januarja 2000 ali pozneje, izpolnjevati zahteve, ki jih vsebuje Dodatek IV k tej prilogi. Vsako sežigalno peč odobri uprava ob upoštevanju standardnih specifikacij za ladijske sežigalne peči, ki jih pripravi Organizacija. (b) Uprava lahko dovoli, da za sežigalno peč, ki je nameščena na ladji pred datumom začetka veljavnosti Protokola iz leta 1997, ne velja pododstavek (a) tega odstavka, če ladja plove izključno v vodah pod suverenostjo ali jurisdikcijo države, pod katere zastavo ima ladja pravico pluti.

(3)Nič v tem pravilu ne vpliva na prepoved ali druge zahteve iz Konvencije o preprečevanju onesnaževanja morja z odpadnimi in drugimi snovmi, 1972, kot je bila spremenjena, in Protokola iz leta 1996 k njej.

(4)Na ladjah je prepovedano sežiganje naslednjih snovi: (a) ostankov tovora po Prilogah I, II in III k tej konvenciji in z njimi povezanega onesnaženega embalažnega materiala, (b) polikloriranih bifenilov (PCB), (c) smeti, opredeljenih v Prilogi V k tej konvenciji, ki vsebujejo več kot sledove težkih kovin, in (d) rafiniranih naftnih proizvodov, ki vsebujejo halogenske spojine.

(5)Gošča odplak in oljne usedline, ki nastajajo med običajnim delovanjem ladje, se lahko na ladji sežigajo tudi v glavnem ali pomožnem generatorju ali ogrevalnih kotlih, vendar se v teh primerih to ne sme izvajati v zaprtih pristaniščih, zalivih in morskih rokavih.

(6)Sežiganje polivinil kloridov (PVC) na ladji je prepovedano, razen v ladijskih sežigalnih pečeh, za katere so bila izdana posamična spričevala o ustreznosti Mednarodne pomorske organizacije.

(7)Vse ladje s sežigalnimi pečmi, ki jih zavezuje to pravilo, imajo priročnik proizvajalca o delovanju, ki natančno določa, kako sežigalno peč upravljati v okviru meja iz drugega odstavka Dodatka IV k tej prilogi.

(8)Osebje, odgovorno za delovanje sežigalnih peči, je usposobljeno in zmožno izvajati navodila, ki jih vsebuje priročnik proizvajalca o delovanju.

(9)Kadar je temperatura nižja od najnižje dovoljene 850 ºC, se zahteva stalno spremljanje izhodne temperature zgorevalnih dimnih plinov, odpadki pa se v kontinuirno sežigalno peč ne dovajajo. Pri šaržnih sežigalnih pečeh je postroj zasnovan tako, da temperatura v zgorevalni komori v petih minutah po zagonu doseže 600 ºC.

(10)Nič v tem pravilu ne vpliva na razvoj, namestitev in delovanje ladijskih naprav za toplotno obdelavo odpadkov, ki so drugačne konstrukcije, če te naprave izpolnjujejo zahteve tega pravila ali jih presegajo.

(1)Vlada vsake pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997 se zavezuje, da bo zagotovila obrate, s katerimi bo zadovoljevala: (a) potrebe ladij, ki njena remontna pristanišča uporabljajo za prevzem snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč, in opreme, ki po odstranitvi z ladij vsebuje take snovi; (b) potrebe ladij, ki uporabljajo njena pristanišča, terminale ali remontna pristanišča za prevzem ostankov, nastalih pri čiščenju izpušnih plinov v odobrenih sistemih za čiščenje izpušnih plinov, kadar izpust teh ostankov v morsko okolje ni dovoljen po 14. pravilu te priloge; ne da bi ladjam povzročala nepotrebne zamude, in (c) potrebe v obratih za razgradnjo starih ladij, ki prevzemajo snovi, ki tanjšajo ozonski plašč, in opremo, ki vsebuje take snovi, ko je odstranjena z ladij.

(2)Vsaka pogodbenica Protokola iz leta 1997 uradno obvesti Organizacijo, ki to obvestilo pošlje članicam Organizacije, o vseh primerih, ko obrati, ki jih predvideva to pravilo, niso na voljo ali so domnevno neustrezni.

Cilj območij nadzora nad emisijami SOx je preprečevati, zmanjševati in nadzorovati onesnaževanje zraka zaradi emisij SOx z ladij in zmanjševati negativne učinke takega onesnaževanja na kopnem in morju. 1.2 Organizacija si mora prizadevati sprejeti predlagano območje nadzora nad emisijami SOx, če gre za očitno potrebo po preprečevanju, zmanjševanju in nadzorovanju onesnaževanja zraka zaradi emisij SOx z ladij.   2 PREDLAGANA MERILA ZA DOLOČITEV OBMOČIJ NADZORA NAD EMISIJAMI SOx 2.1 Predloge za določitev območja nadzora nad emisijami SOx lahko Organizaciji predložijo samo države pogodbenice Protokola iz leta 1997. Če imajo dve ali več držav na določenem območju skupni interes, morajo pripraviti usklajen predlog. 2.2 Predlog vključuje: .1 jasno razmejitev predlaganega območja izvajanja nadzora nad emisijami SOx z ladij skupaj z referenčno skico, na kateri je to območje označeno; .2 opis kopenskih in morskih območij, ki jih ogrožajo učinki emisij SOx z ladij; .3 oceno, da emisije SOx z ladij, ki delujejo na predlaganem območju izvajanja nadzora nad emisijami SOx, prispevajo k onesnaževanju zraka z SOx, vključno z usedanjem SOx in njihovimi spremljajočimi negativnimi učinki na zadevna kopenska in morska območja. Taka ocena vključuje opis učinkov emisij SOx na kopenske in vodne ekosisteme, območja naravne produktivnosti, kritične habitate, kakovost vode, zdravje ljudi in morebitna območja kulturnega in znanstvenega pomena. Opisani morajo biti viri ustreznih podatkov, vključno z uporabljenimi metodologijami; .4 ustrezne informacije o vremenskih razmerah na predlaganem območju izvajanja nadzora nad emisijami SOx ter o ogroženih kopenskih in morskih območjih, predvsem o prevladujočih vzorcih vetra ali topografskih, geoloških, oceanografskih, morfoloških in drugih razmerah, ki lahko pripeljejo do večje verjetnosti povečanega lokaliziranega onesnaževanja zraka ali zakisljevanja; .5 vrsto ladijskega prometa na predlaganem območju nadzora nad emisijami SOx, vključno z vzorci in gostoto takega prometa, in .6 opis nadzornih ukrepov države pogodbenice ali držav pogodbenic za reševanje kopenskih virov emisij SOx, ki ogrožajo zadevno območje, ki so že sprejeti in se izvajajo ob upoštevanju ukrepov, sprejetih na podlagi odločb 14. pravila Priloge VI k tej konvenciji. 2.3 Zemljepisne meje območja nadzora nad emisijami SOx bodo temeljile na ustreznih merilih, opisanih zgoraj, vključno z emisijami in izločanjem SOx z ladij, ki plovejo na predlaganem območju, vzorci ter gostoto prometa in vetrovnimi razmerami. 2.4 Predlog za določitev danega območja za območje nadzora nad emisijami SOx mora biti Organizaciji predložen v skladu s pravili in postopki, ki jih določi Organizacija.   3 Postopki, po katerih Organizacija presoja in sprejme območja nadzora nad emisijami SOx 3.1 3.2 Območje nadzora nad emisijami SOx se določi v obliki spremembe k tej prilogi, ki se prouči, sprejme in uveljavi v skladu s 16. členom te konvencije. 3.3 Pri presojanju predloga Organizacija upošteva merila, ki morajo biti vključena v vsak predlog za sprejetje, kot je opredeljen v 2. razdelku zgoraj, in relativne stroške zmanjševanja izločanja žvepla z ladij v primerjavi z nadzorom na kopnem. Upoštevati se morajo tudi gospodarski učinki na plovbo v mednarodnem prometu.   4 Delovanje območij nadzora nad emisijami SOx 4.1 Pogodbenice, katerih ladje plovejo na takem območju, se spodbujajo k temu, da Organizacijo seznanjajo z vsemi zadevami, povezanimi z delovanjem določenega območja." text="(1) Ladijske sežigalne peči, opisane v drugem odstavku 16. pravila, morajo pridobiti spričevalo o tipskem soglasju IMO k vsaki posamezni peči.
