1 DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY UNITED STATES COAST GUARD PORT STATE CONTROL IN THE UNITED STATES 206 Aual Report

2 REAR ADMIRAL PAUL F. THOMAS Assistat Commadat for Prevetio Policy Uited States Coast Guard I am pleased to preset to you the 206 Aual Report o Port State Cotrol (PSC) for the Uited States. This aual report marks the eighteeth issue ad details the statistics related to eforcemet of the regulatios uder the Iteratioal Covetio for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), the Iteratioal Covetio for the Prevetio of Pollutio from Ships (MARPOL), ad the Iteratioal Ship & Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code o foreig flagged vessels tradig i U.S. ports. For 206, our PSC activity icreased by 25 safety exams over our 205 totals. Though our exam totals icreased, I am pleased to report that we saw our detetio total decrease sigificatly from 202 to 03, our lowest total i five years. Our three-year rollig average detetio ratio that was o the rise over the last two years has made a slight drop from.67% to.63%. Though the drop i detetios is ecouragig overall ad may be a sig that owers ad operators are puttig greater emphasis o ship maiteace, we are seeig a rise i the percetage of detetios related to fire fightig ad fire protectio systems for the third straight year. As i 205, there were a high umber of detetios issued due to Port State Cotrol Officers (PSCOs) idetifyig quick closig fuel shutoff valves o fuel oil taks blocked i the ope positio. Additioally, there were detetios issued for ioperable mai fire pumps ad istaces where maual valves o hyper-mist systems located i uatteded machiery spaces were discovered i the closed positio, rederig the system ioperative. I am also pleased to report that our MARPOL Aex I deficiecies have bee o the declie over the past several years, ad I hope that vessel owers ad operators remai committed to meetig evirometal compliace stadards. However, despite the umerous detetios, civil pealties, ad eve crimial prosecutio actios i the most egregious cases, we cotiue to fid istaces where ships crews flagratly disregard MARPOL Aex I requiremets. Whe a OWS is discovered to be itetioally bypassed or whe PSCOs are preseted with a false record book or give a false statemet durig a PSC examiatio, the Uited States will cotiue to eforce our laws ad treaty obligatios, as well as pursue available domestic eforcemet optios, whether civil or crimial. For those exemplary vessels that have cosistetly adhered to evirometal compliace while also demostratig a immese commitmet to evirometal stewardship, the Coast Guard is expadig upo our QUALSHIP 2 (QS2) program to recogize them. The expaded program, called QUALSHIP 2 E-Zero, is based o strict evirometal compliace criteria ad provides additioal beefits to those ships that are able to qualify. Full details o this ew expaded QS2 program, icludig eligibility requiremets, are preseted later i this report. O a persoal ote, this report will be my last as the Assistat Commadat for Prevetio Policy. Later this summer I will assume duties as the Commader, Coast Guard Eighth District i New Orleas, Louisiaa. As I embark o my ext assigmet, I am pleased to commed the work of my Headquarters staffs, the Captais of the Port, ad most otably the dedicated work of the Coast Guard s PSCOs. Through their hard work ad dedicatio, they cotiue to make our PSC program oe of the fiest i the world. I hope you fid this report a useful resource. Ay questios, commets or recommedatios you may have o this report should be directed to my staff whose poits of cotact are listed at the ed. ii

4 Chapter Port State Cotrol Overview Highlights i 206 Vessel Arrivals ad Examiatios Icreased, Detetios Decreased I 206, a total of 9,859 idividual vessels, from 83 differet flag admiistratios, made 8,877 port calls to the Uited States. The Coast Guard coducted 9,390 SOLAS safety exams ad 8,88 ISPS exams o these vessels. The total umber of ships detaied i 206 for evirometal protectio ad safety related deficiecies decreased from 202 to 03. The total umber of ships detaied i 206 for security related deficiecies slightly decreased from to 8. Flag Admiistratio Safety ad Security Performace Flag admiistratio safety performace for 206 icreased, with the overall aual detetio rate droppig from 2.8% to.09%. The three-year rollig detetio ratio also decreased from.67% to.63%. The flag admiistratios of Hoduras ad Malta were both removed from our Targeted Flag List. Flag admiistratio security performace for 206 icreased as well, with the aual Cotrol Actio Ratio (CAR) decreasig from 0.3% to 0.09%. The three-year rollig average CAR has remaied steady at 0.%. Additioally, the flag admiistratios of Egypt, Hoduras, ad Tazaia were all removed from our ISPS/MTSA targeted matrix. Detetio Appeals I additio to receivig appeals cotestig the overall merits of a detetio, we also receive appeals requestig the removal of a party s associatio to a detetio. I 206, Coast Guard Headquarters received a total of 3 detetio appeals. Four appeals were submitted challegig the overall merits of the detetio. All four were deied. For those parties appealig their associatio with a detetio, ie total, all ie were grated. For more iformatio o the Coast Guard s appeal process, please see our process guidace o page 5 of this report. QUALSHIP 2 Program The QUALSHIP 2 program eded caledar year 206 with a erollmet of,493 vessels. Last year we had thirtee flag admiistratios lose their QS2 eligibility over the previous year. With the cosiderable drop i detetios, oly oe flag admiistratio lost their eligibility ad a additioal six became eligible. We would like to welcome the flag admiistratios of Bahamas, Chia, Germay, Isle of Ma, Portugal, ad Sigapore for becomig QS2 eligible i 207. We ivite you to take a momet to see the full list of QS2 flag admiistratios i Chapter 2 of this report. QUALSHIP 2 E-Zero Program (New for 207) The Coast Guard is itroducig QS2 E-Zero, a ew program that icorporates evirometal stewardship ito the existig QS2 program. The QS2 E-Zero program focuses o compliace with iteratioal evirometal covetios ad U.S. ballast water regulatios. The E-zero desigatio is iteded to provide a higher level of recogitio withi the existig QS2 program. Details o the beefits of the ew QS2 E-Zero program, icludig eligibility requiremets, are preseted i Chapter 2 of this report. Process wise, all existig QUALSHIP 2 ships that are comig due for reewal i the comig moths will be automatically screeed for eligibility based o reewals fallig withi the period of July, 207 to December, 207. For all other QUALSHIP 2 ships which presetly meet the E- Zero criteria, shippig compaies are welcome to submit applicatios i order to have the E-Zero desigatio added to their vessels curret certificates for reissuace.

15 Safety Compliace Performace Chapter 2 Detaiable Deficiecies Overview* I 206, we witessed a substatial decrease i the umber of detetios from 205. This is a positive developmet; however, some commo themes repeated this year for detaiable deficiecies foud durig PSC examiatios. Fire Fightig ad Protectio Systems: Though ot as prevalet as last year, our PSCOs still cotiued to discover fire safety issues as the most commo area for detaiable deficiecies. Oce agai, there were a sigificat umber of required remoteoperable fuel shutoff valves o various fuel ad lube oil taks disabled i the ope positio, which could ot be operated from outside the space i the evet of a fire. Additioally, our PSCOs still fid fire dampers ioperable ad fire hoses that are damaged or dry rotted. Safety Maagemet Systems (SMS): The umber of SMS related deficiecies has remaied fairly cosistet over the last two years. I may cases, multiple ucorrected material deficiecies were oted, idicatig failures i the implemetatio of the vessel s SMS. Several SMS related detetios oted that the vessel ad compay were ot followig shipboard ad SMS procedures for the upkeep of critical lifesavig equipmet, icludig the maiteace of lifeboat egies ad expired SART batteries. Lifesavig Equipmet: PSCOs cotiue to observe lifesavig equipmet i a uacceptable state of readiess. There were istaces where steerig systems o lifeboats were discovered ioperable, wiches for lauchig lifesavig appliaces o davits foud froze, ad hydrostatic releases ad paiters o float-free life rafts were icorrectly istalled. MARPOL Aex I: MARPOL Aex I deficiecies have decreased steadily over the last five years. Historically, these types of deficiecies made up early oe quarter of all deficiecies issued aually, for 206 they made up oly 7%. Ioperable oily water separatig (OWS) equipmet remais the most commo detetio deficiecies uder this category. Safety i Geeral: This topic ca cover almost ay area throughout a ship ad if ot addressed immediately ca lead to serious ijury or loss of life. Durig oe exam PSCOs discovered a ioperable vetilatio fa leadig to low oxyge atmospheric coditios i the vessel s steerig gear room. Aother ship was observed to have excessive wor achor chai dogs ad a failed hydraulic power system o the mai deck due to failed seals. *This overview highlights oly a small fractio of the detaiable deficiecies discovered i 206. The Coast Guard stresses that if ay ship s system required by iteratioal covetios is ot i workig coditio, the master ad crew should take ecessary actios to remedy the situatio i accordace with their SMS before the ship eters port ad report ay uresolved issues o their advace otice of arrival. 2

18 Safety Compliace Performace Chapter 2 Quality Shippig for the 2 st Cetury (QUALSHIP2) The Quality Shippig for the 2 st Cetury program, or QUALSHIP 2, recogizes ad rewards vessels, as well as their owers ad Flag Admiistratios, for their commitmet to safety ad quality. To ecourage maritime etities to participate, icetives such as certificates, ame recogitio, ad a reductio i PSC examiatio frequecy are redered to participats. The criteria for iclusio are very strict ad oly a small percetage of all foreig-flagged ships that operate i the Uited States have eared the QUALSHIP 2 desigatio. The QUALSHIP 2 program eded caledar year 206 with a erollmet of,493 vessels. Oly oe previously qualified flag admiistratio lost their QUALSHIP 2 eligibility over this past year. Vessels from those flag admiistratios that are curretly erolled i the program will remai erolled util their QUALSHIP 2 certificates expire. The striget eligibility criteria for etry ito QUALSHIP 2 has remaied primarily uchaged sice the program s iceptio. The criteria ca be foud o our website. I 20, we made the decisio to amed our Flag Admiistratio qualificatio procedures to iclude the submittal of iformatio relatig to the Iteratioal Maritime Orgaizatio's Volutary Member State Audit Scheme (VMSAS). As of Jauary, 206, the oce VMSAS became madatory. If a eligible Flag Admiistratio desires to be part of the QUALSHIP 2 Program, they must submit the executive summary from their member state audit to the U.S. Coast Guard. Alteratively, if a Admiistratio has ot yet udergoe the audit, the Admiistratio should submit a letter attestig to this fact ad that they have formally requested a audit be performed. If the Admiistratio has either udergoe or requested the member state audit, they will ot be eligible. For the period of July, 207 through Jue 30, 208, we have 2 eligible Flag Admiistratios for the QUALSHIP 2 Program: Qualified Flag Admiistratios Bahamas Chia Japa Sigapore Belgium Demark Marshall Islads Switzerlad Bermuda Germay Mexico Uited Kigdom British Virgi Islads Gibraltar Philippies Caada Hog Kog Portugal Cayma Islads Isle of Ma Republic of Korea I 20, we created a list of Flag Admiistratios that have show a commitmet to excellece i their level of compliace with iteratioal stadards but do ot meet the full requiremets for QUALSHIP 2 eligibility. Specifically, they have ot met the requiremet of at least 0 PSC examiatios per caledar year for the previous three years.

After receivig this iformatio, the Coast Guard will scree the iformatio ad make a determiatio of eligibility. Oce accepted ito the program, a QUALSHIP 2 Certificate will be issued to the compay ad the vessel. The vessel will the be listed o the CG-CVC-2 s QUALSHIP 2 web page. Vessel owers that have ships erolled i QUALSHIP 2 but do ot see their vessels o the QUALSHIP 2 web page should otify the Coast Guard at the address oted o this pamphlet. Applicatios for erollmet are processed i the order i which they are received. Our goal is to process each applicatio withi 30 days of receipt. Exit Criteria A vessel will o loger be eligible for icetives durig the period of the QUALSHIP 2 certificate, uder the followig coditios: The vessel is detaied ad determied to be substadard i U.S. waters. The vessel has a marie violatio, more tha oe upaid NOV ticket, or a reportable marie casualty that meets the defiitio of a serious marie icidet or major marie casualty. The vessel is foud with serious deficiecies (e.g., deficiecies that are cosidered serious eough to warrat the detetio of the vessel) that are ot beig moitored by the vessel s flag admiistratio or RO actig o behalf of the flag admiistratio, or if the vessel is foud to ot have reported a hazardous coditio prior to arrival. If the vessel is withi the time limits imposed by the flag admiistratio or RO to correct deficiecies, the vessel will ot lose eligibility for icetives. The vessel trasfers to a targeted RO. The vessel chages its flag admiistratio to oe that has a detetio ratio greater tha.0%, or to a flag admiistratio that does ot have at least 0 distict arrivals i each of the previous 3 years. The vessel is associated with a compay that is required by the U.S. Departmet of Justice or U.S. Coast Guard to have ad follow a Evirometal Compliace Pla due to crimial prosecutio or the vessel has ay other pedig crimial ivestigatios. A compay may request recosideratio from the U.S. Coast Guard (CG-CVC-2) to remai i the QUALSHIP 2 program or retai its E- Zero desigatio if it ows or operates a vessel that has bee associated with a IMO reportable detetio or evirometal deficiecy.

Sector Puget Soud has made atioal headlies i recet years for its ivolvemet i several high-profile evets. I November of 205, PSC Officers boarded a foreig flagged bulk freight vessel to coduct a aual PSC Exam. They discovered evidece of a MARPOL Aex I violatio, i which the vessel had discharged oil overboard by way of bypassig a ioperative Oily Water Separator via temporary pipig to the soot collectio tak. This case evetually resulted i the vessel s owers ad operators beig issued a fie of $.3 millio ad two of the vessel s egieers receivig priso seteces. Sector Puget Soud has also bee a leader amog iter-agecy efforts to combat the spread of Aquatic Ivasive Species (AIS). Earlier this year, PSC Officers idetified a bulk freight vessel that appeared to be dischargig ballast water illegally i the Port of Tacoma. Workig with Ivestigatios persoel, PSC Officers put together a strog evidece package, resultig i the prosecutio of the atio s first ballast water civil pealty case sice approval of ballast water maagemet treatmet systems.
