COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/89

of 21 January 2022

laying down rules for the application of Directive (EU) 2019/883 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the method to be used for the calculation of sufficient dedicated storage capacity

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive (EU) 2019/883 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on port reception facilities for the delivery of waste from ships, amending Directive 2010/65/EU and repealing Directive 2000/59/EC (1), and in particular Article 7(4), second subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Article 7(4), points (a) and (b), of Directive (EU) 2019/883 establishes an exception from the general obligation to deliver all waste carried on board to the port of call for ships that have sufficient dedicated storage capacity for all waste that has been accumulated and will be accumulated during their intended voyage until the next port of call.

(2)

By applying the calculation method defined in this Regulation, Member States should be able to implement the exceptions from the general obligation to deliver all waste carried on board with respect to availability of sufficient storage space in a harmonised way.

(3)

The calculation method should not be applied to waste disposal under Annex II to the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (‘MARPOL Convention’). As set out in Annex II to the MARPOL Convention, waste disposal is regulated by the MARPOL Convention and the delivery of such waste is either mandatory at the port where cargo is unloaded before a new cargo is loaded or discharge at sea is permitted under certain conditions. Depending on the substance, delivery of cargo residues regulated by Annex II to the MARPOL Convention is mandatory before departure, subject to the procedures and control established under Regulations 13 and16 of that Annex. Cargo residues under Annex II to the MARPOL Convention containing category X substances, high-viscosity persistent floating Y substances and high-viscosity or solidifying Y substances, are regulated by mandatory pre-wash and requirements to deliver such waste in a port reception facility set out in Regulations 13 and 16 of Annex II to the MARPOL Convention.

(4)

The calculation method should not be applied to passively fished waste. Dedicated storage for this type of waste on board does not always exist and delivery of all passively fished waste is incentivised by the cost recovery system set out in Article 8(2), point (d), of Directive (EU) 2019/883.

(5)

In order to provide for uniform conditions for the application of the exemptions to the waste delivery obligation set out in Article 7(4), points (a) and (b), of Directive (EU) 2019/883, it is indispensable that Member States apply a harmonised methodology. Implementing acts adopted pursuant to Directive (EU) 2019/883 should therefore take the form of implementing regulations.

(6)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Safe Seas and Prevention of Pollution from Ships,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1.   Member States shall calculate the sufficient dedicated storage capacity for the application of Article 7(4), points (a) and (b), and Article 9 of Directive (EU) 2019/883 by using the method set out in Annex I to this Regulation.

2.   For the purpose of verifying the information provided in accordance with Annex 2 to Directive (EU) 2019/883, by estimating the on-board generation of different waste types, Member States shall take into account the waste generation rates set out in Annex II to this Regulation.

3.   In addition to the waste generation rates set out in Annex II to this Regulation, Member States may use one or both of the following criteria to determine estimates for the on-board generation of different waste types:

(a)

historic records for generated waste, based on advance waste notification forms and waste delivery receipts available for the ship in question;

(b)

on-board inspections obtaining information on previous waste generation rates, details of on-board waste management and equipment specific or trading area specific information affecting the actual waste generation rate.

Article 2

The method for calculating the sufficient dedicated storage capacity, set out in Annex I to this Regulation, shall not be applicable to the following waste types:

(a)

waste types under Annex II to the MARPOL Convention;

(b)

passively fished waste.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 21 January 2022.

ANNEX I

Calculation method for sufficient dedicated waste storage capacity

1.

The method uses an arithmetic calculation based on the estimated amounts of waste retained on board in relation to the maximum dedicated storage capacity.

2.

The Used Waste Capacity (‘UWC’), estimated at the time of sending the advance waste notification to the port of call and expressed as a percentage of the maximum dedicated storage capacity, shall not exceed a predefined threshold.

3.

The UWC shall be calculated with the following formula:

Image 1

4.

The UWC shall comply with the following condition:

UWC (%) < Threshold

Where:

A is the estimated amount of waste type to be retained on board at the time of departure from the port of call (expressed in m3);

M is the Maximum dedicated storage capacity (expressed in m3);

Threshold is the value set out in Table 1, for the corresponding type of waste and next port of call.

Table 1

For the purpose of using the calculation method for sufficient dedicated waste storage capacity, the following shall apply:

(a)

Port of call, as indicated in the advance waste notification form set out in Annex 2 to Directive (EU) 2019/883, is the port where the ship is heading and where the advanced waste notification is sent to, in accordance with Article 6 of Directive (EU) 2019/883;

(b)

Next port of call is the port to be called after departure, as indicated in point 2.5 of the advance waste notification form set out in Annex 2 to Directive (EU) 2019/883;

(c)

The amount indicated in the sixth column ‘Estimated amount of waste to be generated between notification and next port of call’ of point 3 of the advance waste notification form set out in Annex 2 to Directive (EU) 2019/883 refers to waste generated and intended to be disposed at a port reception facility. Amounts that may be legally discharged shall not be included in the reported value.

6.

The ‘Group of Additional Selected Ports’ includes those ports that are to be considered as EU-ports for the purpose of the application of the thresholds set out in Table 1. The ports included in this group are all ports located in: Iceland, Norway, United Kingdom (including Isle of Man, Channel Islands and Gibraltar) and Russian ports located in the Baltic Sea.

7.

During the first two years of application of this Regulation, the UWC as calculated in the third paragraph of this Annex may be treated as indicative for the following cargo residues waste types:

(a)

MARPOL Annex I – Oil: Oily tank washings;

(b)

MARPOL Annex I – Oil: Dirty Ballast Water;

(c)

MARPOL Annex V – Garbage: Cargo Residues (HME);

(d)

MARPOL Annex V – Garbage: Cargo Residues (non-HME).

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2022/90

of 21 January 2022

laying down rules for the application of Directive (EU) 2019/883 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the detailed elements of the Union risk-based targeting mechanism for selecting ships for inspection

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive (EU) 2019/883 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on port reception facilities for the delivery of waste from ships, amending Directive 2010/65/EU and repealing Directive 2000/59/EC (1), and in particular Article 11(2), second subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Effective enforcement of the obligation to deliver waste to port reception facilities is paramount to effectively address the problem of marine litter and other waste from shipping entering the marine environment.

(2)

A single Union risk-based targeting mechanism should provide for uniform conditions for selecting ships for inspection in accordance with Article 11(2) of Directive (EU) 2019/883.

(3)

By establishing the Union risk-based targeting mechanism, the relevant authorities in the Member States are to have a supporting tool to fulfil the inspection commitment in accordance with Article 11(1) of Directive (EU) 2019/883.

(4)

In order to assess the risk that a ship is not complying with the obligations established in Directive (EU) 2019/883, several parameters should be taken into account, which in conjunction provide a clear indication of such risk. Those parameters should be: the non-compliance or indications of non-compliance with the requirements for the delivery of waste; the period of time elapsed since the last inspection; the existence of previous reports of non-compliance by the relevant port authorities; the previous and the next port of call; the existence of an exemption for that ship; and the information included on SafeSeaNet and in THETIS-EU.

(5)

In order to provide for uniform conditions for the selection of ships for inspection, it is indispensable that Member States apply a harmonized methodology. Implementing acts adopted pursuant Directive (EU) 2019/883 should therefore take the form of implementing regulations.

(6)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Safe Seas and the Prevention of Pollution from Ships,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1.   For the purposes of inspections, Member States shall classify the ships referred to in Article 3(1), point (a), of Directive (EU) 2019/883, into the following risk level categories:

(a)

Risk level 1 (high risk);

(b)

Risk level 2 (medium risk);

(c)

Risk level 3 (low risk);

(d)

Risk level 4 (minimum risk).

2.   The risk level category for each ship shall be determined on the basis of the risk parameters set out in Table 1 of the Annex.

3.   The risk level parameters set out in Table 1 of the Annex shall be applied following the methodology referred to in points 1 to 4 of the Annex.

Article 2

When complying with the inspection commitments set out in Article 11 of Directive (EU) 2019/883, Member States shall comply with the following requirements:

(a)

give priority to the inspection of ships with a higher risk level category;

(b)

randomly select for inspection at least 1 % of number of ships to be inspected every year.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Directive 2002/59/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) provides the electronic reporting of the advanced waste notification which includes information on passively fished waste and a specific methodology is required for the collection of passively fished waste information from fishing vessels which are subject to Directive (EU) 2019/883 but are excluded from the scope Directive 2002/59/EC.

(4)

It is not always possible or cost-effective to measure both the mass and the volume of passively fished waste. Therefore, Member States should be allowed to estimate mass as a function of volume or volume as a function of mass using an estimate of passively fished waste density adequate for their circumstances.

(5)

In order ensure homogeneity, quality and comparability of the data collected for monitoring the volume and quantity of passively fished waste in all Member States, implementing acts adopted pursuant Directive (EU) 2019/883 should take the form of implementing regulations.

(6)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Safe Seas and Prevention of Pollution from Ships,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

1.   The method for the collection of data on the volume and mass of passively fished waste by the Member States shall be consistent with the Eurostat Manual on Waste Statistics.

2.   For fishing vessels falling within the scope of Directive 2002/59/EC, the collection of data on passively fished waste shall be based on the information provided in the advance waste notification in accordance with Article 6 of Directive (EU) 2019/883.

3.   For fishing vessels falling outside the scope of Directive 2002/59/EC, the collection of data on passively fished waste shall be based on one of the following methods described in the Eurostat Manual on Waste Statistics:

(a)

surveys;

(b)

administrative or other sources;

(c)

statistical estimation procedures;

(d)

a combination of the methods referred to in points (a), (b), and (c).

Article 2

1.   Passively fished waste shall be reported in accordance with the components set out in Table 1 of the Annex.

2.   Passively fished waste may include abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear, which may be reported separately from other marine litter.

3.   The mandatory and voluntary elements for the reporting of passively fished waste are set out in Table 2 of the Annex.

4.   The reporting format for passively fished waste and the method for aggregation is set out in Table 3 of the Annex.

Article 3

1.   The amount of passively fished waste shall be reported in volume and mass.

2.   Where appropriate, the conversion of volume (V) to mass (m) shall be calculated with the following formula:

m = pV

Where p is the estimated density of the material (kgm-3), m is mass (kg) and V is the volume (m3).

Article 4

From 1 January 2022, Member States shall report the data and information for the yearly periods from 1 January until 31 December. The reports shall be provided electronically within 12 months of the end of the reporting year for which they were collected.

Member States shall report data collected for the year 2021 by 30 June 2022, to the maximum extent possible in accordance with the Annex.

Article 5

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 21 January 2022.
