The Control of Pollution (Landed Ships' Waste) (Amendment) Regulations 1989
These Regulations amend the Control of Pollution (Landed Ships' Waste) Regulations 1987 (“the 1987 Regulations”) to apply to ships garbage landed in Great Britain the same requirements that apply to tank washings landed there. They complement the Merchant Shipping (Reception Facilities for Garbage) Regulations 1988, which give effect to the provisions of Annex V of the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships 1973 (Cmnd. 5748) by empowering harbour authorities to provide reception facilities for garbage disposed of by ships.
