CARRIAGE AND STORAGE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS



                                                 Each package should be inspected for leakage or damage
                                                  before being stowed, and any found defective to an extent

                                                  likely to impair safety should be rejected.
                                                 Packages should be placed on dunnage on the deck or in the
                                                  hold.

                                                 Packages should not be dragged across the deck or hold and
                                                  should not be allowed to slide or roll free.

                                                 Cans and drums should be stowed with caps and end plugs
                                                  uppermost.

                                                 When securing the cargo, each tier should be separated by
                                                  dunnage. The height to which cargo can be safely stowed
                                                  should be related to the nature, size and strength of the
                                                  packages. Advice should be obtained from the terminal or
                                                  shipper, as appropriate.

                                                 Sufficient suitable dunnage should be used to prevent possible
                                                  damage during the voyage.

                                                 The cargo should be properly secured to prevent any
                                                  movement during the voyage.
                                                 During darkness, adequate approved lighting should be
                                                  provided over the side and in the hold.
                                                 Empty receptacles, unless gas free, should be treated as filled
                                                  receptacles.            ึ

                                                 No materials susceptible to spontaneous combustion should
                                                  be used as dunnage or stowed in the same compartment as
                                                  the packages. Attention is drawn to the combustible nature of
                                                  certain protective packaging, such as straw, wood shavings,
                                                  bituminised paper, felts and polyurethane.
                                                 On completion of loading or discharge and prior to closing
                                                  hatches, the hold should be inspected to check that everything
                                                  is in order.


                              12.5.2    Dangerous Goods

                                        Dangerous goods are classified in Chapter VII of the International
                                        Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974.


                                        The Master should only permit aboard the ship packaged dangerous
                                        goods which have been properly identified by the shipper of the goods
                                        and declared as being properly packaged, marked and labelled in
                                        compliance with the appropriate provisions of the International Maritime
                                        Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code, taking into consideration, as
                                        appropriate, the IMO ‘Recommendations on the Safe Transport of
                                        Dangerous Cargoes and Related Activities in Port Areas’.


                                        Before accepting the cargo, the Master should check that he has received
                                        adequate advice on any special properties of the cargo, on procedures
                                        for entering an enclosed compartment containing the cargo, and for
                                        dealing with any leak, spill, inhalation, skin contact or fire.

                                        Attention is drawn to the advice for dealing with spillage or fire contained
                                        in the IMO guide ‘Emergency Procedures for Ships Carrying Dangerous
                                        Goods – Group Emergency Schedules’.
