Machine translation from English source POLITICS The Company's environmental practices are contained in the Company's Policy Manual and are prominently displayed on all of the Company's vessels. This policy details the Company's commitment to protecting the environment from pollution. The Company requires that all personnel ashore and afloat be familiar with this policy and participate in achieving our goals. Masters, officers and ratings are required to take all reasonable practical steps to prevent pollution of the environment by: * Dangerous goods and harmful substances. * Sewage. * Garbage. * Organisms in ballast water. * Exhaust and cargo vapor emissions. COMPILATION OF REPORTS Pollution incidents similar to those described in this section must initially be reported to the Authority. In addition to reporting all pollution incidents, masters are required to record and report all near misses that may have resulted in pollution so that the emergency response team can investigate, collate, analyze and subsequently implement recommendations as necessary. OIL POLLUTION (second mechanic job) Oil pollution from ships can generally be divided as follows: * Ships at sea. * Ships in port. Although the above scenarios present the same potential hazard to the health and safety of the ship with respect to fire hazards, the captain has more time and more options when starting his contingency plan while the ship is at sea. Craftsmen are reminded that life safety is their first priority and must come first. The master's second consideration should be the safety of his vessel, and therefore he may need to follow the emergency plans mentioned earlier in this guide before considering pollution aspects. The vessel's specific oil spill response plans are set out in the SOPEP manual and in the Company's emergency response plans. Managers must use the IMO.648(1) reporting format to report all oil spills, including those where future contamination is possible. WASTEWATER DISCHARGE (work as a second mechanic) Untreated sewage shall not be discharged from a reservoir unless the vessel is more than 12 miles from land and in transit. The reservoir must be gradually discharged. Wastewater from an approved communication and disinfection system is discharged unless the vessel is more than four miles from land. shouldn't be Liquid wastewater from vessels with treatment facilities of approved specifications may be discharged at least twelve miles from land. Extreme care must be taken to ensure that when wastewater is discharged there is no possibility of wastewater entering the seawater inlets for freshwater generators. If there is any possibility of this, then the WW generator must be in the process of discharging wastewater.
