Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) & IHM Register  2 different types of IHM:  New build vessels  Existing vessels  2 “different” types of Regulations/Guidelines  Hong Kong Convention (adopted in 2009), to be ratified yet  EU Regulation (entered into force in 2013) with deadlines set  Purpose of IHM  Regulate waste management at recycling phase of vessel  Prevent exposure to Hazardous Materials for crew and recycling yard workers 13 13

Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) & IHM Register  Different deadlines set:   30-12-2018 Newbuild vessels   30-12-2020 Existing vessels  IHM Part I, Part II and Part III  IHM (EU Regulation) requirements valid for:  All EU flagged vessels  Non EU flagged vessels calling EU ports  Non EU flagged vessels dropping anchor in EU waters 14 14

IHM Register  Global use and access  Simplicity in obtaining data  Identical format, accepted by all various Class  Safe access for pilots/customs/law enforcement 15 15
