The 23 member Malaysian team visited the £ 33m coastal protection scheme at Scarborough UK being supervised by High-Point Rendel.
The MCA has embarked upon an industry wide consultation on the draft Merchant Shipping (Prevention of Pollution by Sewage and Garbage from Ships) Regulations 2008 which will impose the new provisions of MARPOL Annex IV (Sewage) and Annex V (Garbage). Lorraine Weller explains the extent and expected effect of the provisions.
