The company and the ship shall comply with the requirements of the International Safety Management Code. For the purpose of this regulation, the requirements of the Code shall be treated as mandatory. The company should establish procedures to ensure that new personnel and personnel transferred to new assignments related to safety and protection of the environment are given proper familiarization with their duties. Instructions which are essential to be provided prior to sailing should be identified, documented and given. The crew was not familiar with the shipboard emergency procedures regarding the fire drill. The crew failed the fire drill 02 times because of their inability to properly don firefighting equipment and follow shipboard firefighting procedures. A safety management audit report satisfactory to the Captain of the Port must be submitted prior to the clearence of this deficiency.

A ship when in a port of another Contracting Government is subject to control by officers duly authorized by such Government concerning operational requirements in respect of the safety of ships, when there are clear grounds for believing that the master or crew are not familiar with essential shipboard procedures relating to the safety of ships. The fire team did not properly don firefighting equipment. The crew was not familiar with SCBA operations, which resulted in dispensing 02 SCBA bottles. Additionally, crew was not familiar with shipboard firefighting procedures, such as not securing ventilation. This resulted in a failure of their fire drill 02 times.

The purpose of this regulation is to contain a fire in the space of origin. For this purpose, the following functional requirements shall be met. (1) the ship shall be subdivided by thermal and structural boundaries (2) thermal insulation boundaries shall have due regard to the fire risk of the space and adjacent spaces: and (3) the fire integrity of the divisions shall be maintained at openings and penetrations. The galley, accommodation spaces, and the navigation bridge are not separated by thermal or structural boundaries. The fire control plan fails to indicate any "A" or "B" class divisions throughout the ship. This deficiency constitutes a significant and unmitigated hazard of both fire and safe navigation if the bridge fills with smoke while underway.

Ducts provided for ventilation to accommodation spaces, service spaces or control stations shall not pass through... galleys... unless they comply with the conditions specifies in paragraphs 7.2.2.1.1 to 7.2.2.1.3 or 7.2.2.2.1 and 7.2.2.2.2. A single ventilation system connects the galley, the accommodation spaces, and the navigation bridge without complying with the precautions in the specified paragraphs. Of note, the ducts were neither insulated to "A-60" standard nor fitted with fire dampers. When asked how they would secure the galley ventilation in the event of a fire, the crew could not answer the question. This deficiency constitutes a significant and unmitigated hazard of both fire and safe navigation if the bridge fills with smoke while underway.

The activation of any detector or manually operated call point shall initiate a visual and audible fire detection alarm signal at the control panel and indicating units. if the signals have not been acknowledged within 2 min, an audible fire alarm shall be automatically sounded throughout the crew accommodation and service spaces, control stations and machinery spaces of category A. This alarm sounder system need not be an integral part of the detection system. The smoke detectors in the galley and accommodation spaces were modular isolated household smoke detectors that were connected to a fixed system and did not initiate a visual and audible signal at the control panel.

For ships constructed before 1 July 1998, the Administration shall ensure that when life-saving appliances... are replaced or... undergo repairs, alterations or modifications of a major character which involve replacement... they comply with the requirements of this chapter. Each launching appliance shall be so arranged that the fully equipped survival craft or rescue boat it serves can be safety launched against unfavorable conditions of trim of up 10 degrees and list of up to 20 degrees either way when boarded. The rescue boat was replaced in 2012. The davit must be physically swiveled by manpower alone, and the crew struggled to rotate the davit with no persons in the rescue boat while moored to the pier in calm weather conditions.

An onboard means of recharging breathing apparatus cylinders used during drills shall be provided or a suitable number of spare cylinders shall be carried on board to replace those used. The vessel only had a total of 04 SCBA bottles on board for 02 fire fighting outfits. Following the drill, 02 SCBA bottles were required to be refilled at a shoreside facility leaving only 02 bottle remaining on board

Not less than 12 rocket parachute flares, complying with requiremnts of section 3.1 of the Code, shall be carried and be stowed on or near the navigation bridge. The vessel only has 06 parachute flares.

Every line-throwing appliance shall include not less than four lines, each having a breaking strength of not less than 2 kN. The vessel only had 02 line-throwing appliances.

All electrical apparatus shall be so constructed and so installed as not to cause injury when handled or touched in the normal manner. Electrical wires were exposed in the freezer above the door and in the engine room on the main engine controls.

A ship, except a ship of less than 26 feet in length, must have a placard of at least 5 by 8 inches, made of durable material fixed in a conspicuous place in each machinery space, or at the bilge and ballast pump control station. The vessel was missing discharge placards

Every oil tanker of 150 gross tonnage and above and every ship of 400 gross tonnage and above other than an oil tanker shall be provided with an Oil Record Book Part I (Machinery space operations). The Oil Record Book, whether as a part of the ship’s official logbook or otherwise, shall be in the form specified in appendix III to this Annex. The soundings of the dirty oil tank were not being logged weekly. Additionally, the sounding logs (i.e. tank capacity, tank level, etc.) were not in accordance with the ORB’s instructions.

The Oil Record Book, whether as part of the ships official logbook or otherwise, shall be in the form specified in appendix III to this annex. PSCO observed weekly soundings of tanks listed in item 3.1 of from A of the IOPP certificate was not being logged per ORB part I section (C)11. MARPOL Annex I/17.1 Code 10c

The condition of the ship and its equipment shall be maintained to conform with the provisions of the present regulations to ensure that the ship in all respects will remain fit to proceed to sea without danger to the ship or persons on board. PSCO observed port and starboard liferafts have not been serviced in the last twelve months.

A ship when in a port or an offshore terminal of another Party is subject to inspection by officers duly authorization by such a Party concerning operational requirements under this Annex there are clear grounds for believing that the master or crew are not familiar with essential shipboard procedures relating to the prevention of pollution by oil. During Port State Control Exam, Port State Control Officer discovered manufacturer's operational instructions for the oily water separator were no on board vessel and master and crew were not familiar with how to properly operate the oily water separator.
