9.0 EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS

9.1. Identifying Potential Emergency Situations

The Company has identified and established the response plans to potential emergency
situations which could arise onboard its vessels and which could affect the safety of life, property or the
environment.
Reference:
VRP as applicable
Emergency Procedure details HSEM, SCP, SOPEP, SMPEP
9.2. Emergency drills and exercises

Drills and exercises, as required by administration, legislation and as developed by the


Company, will be utilized wherever possible to practice and test the efficacy of the response
procedures to potential emergency situations.
The drills are designed to train personnel, both ashore and afloat, in the use of the
contingency plans, to develop familiarity with their respective roles and where necessary to
identify possible areas for improvement.
Whilst the documented procedures for drills and exercises will specify frequency,
it is the responsibility of individual Masters to develop a comprehensive testing
programme which will best fit with the ships operating schedule and ensure that
each member of his crew receives all necessary training within the prescribed
period.
Participation in the Shipboard drills and exercises will be recorded in the STRB and
personnel records of the individuals involved and reviews and debriefings will also be used
to assist with improvement.

14 CERTIFICATION, VERIFICATION AND CONTROL

The Company will apply for - and seek to maintain the validity of - a Document of
Compliance with the ISM Code from the Administration of the flag state in which its ships are
registered.
A valid copy of this document will be posted aboard each of its vessels as evidence that the
Company is capable of complying with the requirements of the Code through the
implementation of its documented PSMM.
The administration, or its recognized organisation, will then verify that the shipboard
management of each vessel is operating in accordance with the approved MMS before issuing
to that ship a Safety Management Certificate which will remain valid for a maximum period
of five years.
It is to be clearly understood by all personnel responsible for the application of any part
of the PSMM that under the ISM Code, a ship can only be operated by a company that is
in possession of a valid Document of Compliance or Interim Document of Compliance
Furthermore, no company can operate a ship that is not in possession of a valid Safety
Management Certificate or interim Safety Management Certificate
It is therefore imperative that all employees familiarize themselves with their
responsibilities with respect to the PSMM and diligently apply themselves to their duties in order
that the validity of any of the above certificates is not jeopardized.
