T5/101 MEPC.3/Circ.4 18 November 2003 FACILITIES IN PORTS FOR THE RECEPTION OF OILY WASTES FROM SHIPS 1 It will be recalled that the Government of a Party to MARPOL 73/78 undertakes to ensure the provision of adequate reception facilities in its ports for the reception of oily wastes from oil tankers and other ships using its ports in accordance with regulation 12 of Annex I of the Convention. Furthermore, all Parties to the Convention are required to communicate to the Organization a list of reception facilities in their ports in accordance with article 11(1)(d) of the Convention, and all IMO Member States which are not yet Party to the Convention are also invited to provide such information. 2 With the aim of promoting the effective implementation of the Convention, the Organization, since 1983, has been collecting and disseminating information on the availability of reception facilities through MEPC circulars. 3 The list of oily waste reception facilities is also available on the Internet and can be accessed as follows: http:/www.imo.org (select 'Quick links/Circulars/Reception Facilities). 4 The attached is a complete list of information on oily waste reception facilities submitted by Governments up to October 2003 and supersedes all other circulars on this matter. The list of IMO Member States which have submitted information on oily waste reception facilities contained in this Circular is set out in annex 1 to this circular and the list of facilities in annex 2. 5 Governments are invited to bring this circular to the attention of their Administrations, port authorities, and shipping companies concerned through appropriate means. 6 It may be noted that this circular is compiled on the basis of information submitted by Governments, and that non-entry of reception facilities in the circular may not necessarily mean that there is no reception facility in that port or country. 7 Goverments are requested to submit information on new reception facilities and updated information on the existing list of facilities to the Organization by April each year in accordance with the established "one-line" format of the attached list. *** I:\CIRC\MEPC\03\4.DOC MEPC.3/Circ.4 ANNEX 1 LIST OF MEMBER STATES WHICH HAVE SUBMITTED INFORMATION ON OILY WASTE RECEPTION FACILITIES Page No. Argentina 1 Australia 3 Barbados 11 Belgium 11 Brazil 23 Canada 40 Chile 54 China 55 Colombia 63 Croatia 63 Cyprus 65 Denmark 65 Ecuador 65 Egypt 66 Estonia 67 Finland 68 France 73 Georgia 79 Germany 79 Greece 91 Iceland 97 India 98 Indonesia 101 Ireland 102 Israel 107 Italy 108 Japan 132 Latvia 149 Lithuania 150 I:\CIRC\MEPC\03\4.DOC MEPC.3/Circ.4 ANNEX 1 Page 2 Page No. Malaysia 150 Maldives 150 Malta 150 Mauritius 151 Mexico 151 Morocco 152 Netherlands 152 New Zealand 155 Norway 162 Pakistan 174 Papua New Guinea 175 Poland 176 Portugal 176 Republic of Korea 177 Russian Federation 178 Singapore 182 Slovenia 184 South Africa 185 Spain 190 Sweden 197 Trinidad & Tobago 207 Tunisia 208 Turkey 208 Turkmenistan 212 Ukraine 213 United Kingdom 214 United States 312 Yemen 339 Associate Member Hong Kong, China 339 *** I:\CIRC\MEPC\03\4.DOC MEPC.3/Circ.4 ANNEX 2 LIST OF OILY WASTE RECEPTION FACILITIES Port, Name of Port Authority or Can facilities in the port accept: Any Other Person or Agency Country Oily Scale and Sludge Restriction or Address Dirty Tank mixtures sludge Oily from limitation on Telephone ballast washing containing from bilge fuel oil the use of Remarks Telex/Fax/E-mail water (slops) chemicals tanker water purifier facilities cleaning ARGENTINA Buenos Aires: (1) Administration of Port of Y Y Y N Y N H 24 Buenos Aires (General Services) Puerto Nuevo - Cabecera Dársena "A" Tel: 311-0389/2796 312-5978/6970 (2) Shell CAPSA South Dock N Y N N N N Co.

  • Competitiveness Analysis of China's Main Coastal Ports
    2019 International Conference on Economic Development and Management Science (EDMS 2019) Competitiveness analysis of China's main coastal ports Yu Zhua, * School of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210000, China; [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: China coastal ports above a certain size, competitive power analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis Abstract: As a big trading power, China's main mode of transportation of international trade goods is sea transportation. Ports play an important role in China's economic development. Therefore, improving the competitiveness of coastal ports is an urgent problem facing the society at present. This paper selects 12 relevant indexes to establish a relatively comprehensive evaluation index system, and uses factor analysis and cluster analysis to evaluate and rank the competitiveness of China's 30 major coastal ports. 1. Introduction Port is the gathering point and hub of water and land transportation, the distribution center of import and export of industrial and agricultural products and foreign trade products, and the important node of logistics. With the continuous innovation of transportation mode and the rapid development of science and technology, ports play an increasingly important role in driving the economy, with increasingly rich functions and more important status and role. Meanwhile, the competition among ports is also increasingly fierce. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and the promotion of "the Belt and Road Initiative", China's coastal ports have also been greatly developed. China has more than 18,000 kilometers of coastline, with superior natural conditions. With the introduction of the policy of reformation and opening, the human conditions are also excellent.

This research is an attempt to unfold the current situation of women’s development within such context by studying the case of Guangdong -- the province as forerunner of China’s economic reform and opening-up -- drawing on current primary resources. First, this study reveals mixed results for women’s development in Guangdong: achievements have been made in education, employment and political participation in terms of “rates” and “numbers,” and small “breakthroughs” have taken place in legislation and women’s awareness of their equal rights and interests; however, limitations and challenges, like disparities between different women groups in addition to gender disparity, continue to exist.

  • Port of Tilbury Backs Lower Thames Crossing - but Only with a Junction Into the Expanding Port Area
    Port of Tilbury backs Lower Thames Crossing - but only with a junction into the expanding port area Posted: 2017-04-12 The Port of Tilbury, London’s major port and the closest significant transport operation to the proposed new motorway and tunnel, welcomes the Government’s decision today (12th April) on the Lower Thames Crossing. Charles Hammond, Chief Executive of the Forth Ports group (owner of the Port of Tilbury), welcomed the Government's decision on the route of the Lower Thames Crossing, while continuing to make the case for a junction into the Port of Tilbury area: "With Brexit looming, it is imperative that the UK prioritises major infrastructure improvements to key international trading corridors. "This investment is as much about north-south connectivity, as east-west road links on and off the motorway. "It is vital that nationally significant transport operations like the Port of Tilbury have high quality and reliable road connections. That's why we will maintain the case for an all-moves junction off the new motorway into the expanding port area." According to Highways England's latest draft route strategy, the Port of Tilbury has one of the least reliable and least resilient road connections to the national motorway network of any major port. Tilbury supports option C - a new tunnel and motorway connection east of the towns of Gravesend and Tilbury - but with the proviso that the proposed crossing and new road through Thurrock provides a step change in the connectivity to and from the port. Over the next 12-18 months as the details of route and junctions are refined by Highways England, the Port will continue to call for the inclusion of an all-moves junction east of Tilbury with a direct link to the Port of Tilbury area.

  • The Greek-Orthodox Community of Mersin (Mid-Nineteenth Century to 1921)
    Chapter 8 The Greek-Orthodox Community of Mersin (Mid-Nineteenth Century to 1921) Evangelia Balta Abstract This article is an overview of the history of the Greek-Orthodox com- munity of Mersin and its surrounding villages, retrieved from unpublished archival material to be found in Greece. More specifically, the material from the 11 Mersinian codices that were saved and transported to Greece with the Exchangeable refugees and are today kept in the General State Archives (Athens). The codices record the history of the communities (births, marriages, baptisms, deaths, decisions made by community authorities, the running of schools, trade unions, etc.), any activity in which the inhabitants of the Mersin area were involved from the mid-nineteenth cen- tury until 1924. This information was supported by refugees’ testimonies from the Oral Tradition Archive at the Centre of Asia Minor Studies in Athens. Lastly, con- sular reports from the Archive of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs are presented, which include a description of the conditions prevailing amongst the Greek element in the city of Mersin and its environs at the beginning of the twentieth century. Mersin is the proud testimony of the progress made in the sandjak of Adana in the second half of the nineteenth century. Until 1841, just a few huts of farmers and fishermen stood on the site of the town that bustled with life in the first decade of the twentieth century. We read in the Greek literature that the emergence of Mersin can be traced back to the year 1842, when Rums from Cappadocia and the Greek islands arrived in this backwater and became its true founders.
