ADDRESSES:
Annex VI
to the International Convention for the
Prevention of Pollution from Ships
(MARPOL Annex VI) addresses air
pollution from ships. Regulation 14
addresses particulate matter (PM) and
sulfur oxide (SOX) emissions through
fuel sulfur content limits. Beginning on
January 1, 2015, fuel used in ships
operating in designated Emission
Control Areas (ECAs), including the
North American and U.S. Caribbean Sea
ECAs, may not exceed 1,000 ppm.
Outside of designated ECAs, the sulfur
content of marine fuel currently may not
exceed 35,000 ppm; this limit will be
reduced to 5,000 ppm beginning on
January 1, 2020.
As required by Regulation 14.8 of
Annex VI, the 2020 global sulfur cap
was reviewed and the limit was
confirmed by the Marine Environment
Protection Committee at its 70th session
in 2017. At the 71st session, the Marine
Environment Protection Committee
agreed on a new work output to
consider measures to promote
consistent implementation of the global
sulfur cap to address industry concerns
and promote a level playing field with
regard to compliance and enforcement
of the new standards. An intersessional
working group meeting will be held in
July 2018, and recommendations will be
provided to the 73rd session of the
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with NOTICES

Marine Environment Protection
Committee that meets in October 2018.
To obtain stakeholder input in
advance of the intersessional working
group meeting, the Coast Guard and
EPA will conduct a meeting on
Tuesday, June 5 at the United States
Department of Transportation building
in Washington, DC. At this meeting, the
Coast Guard and EPA will provide
background information on the MEPC
action; afterwards, a discussion will be
moderated by Coast Guard to consider
the following topics.
Æ What preparatory and transitional
issues should be considered, and how
should they be addressed? Ship owners
are expected to develop plans and
procedures to ensure their ships operate
with compliant fuel beginning January
1, 2020. However, issues may arise for
a short period after the effective date of
the global sulfur cap that may impede
compliance. Stakeholders are
encouraged to describe what these
issues are, how they may be resolved,
and the length of time they are expected
to occur.
Æ Are there safety and machinery
impacts associated with the use of
blended fuels, and how should these be
addressed? At this time it is not known
the extent to which fuels compliant
with the 2020 global sulfur cap will be
purpose refined or blended.
Stakeholders are encouraged to describe
whether they expect to use blended
fuels and whether they expect to adopt
special procedures to handle and use
such fuels.
Æ Regulation 18.2 requires ships to
report fuel oil non-availability. One
option being addressed by the
Committee is the creation of a formal
Fuel Oil Non-Availability Reporting
(FONAR) system, which would require
a ship to file a report with the port State,
the ship’s flag administration, and
potentially the IMO, if the ship is
unable to obtain compliant fuel without
deviating from its planned voyage.
Stakeholders are encouraged to indicate
if such a system would be helpful and,
if so, whether the reporting be uniform,
the information that should be included
in a standard format, how efforts to
obtain compliant fuel should be
documented, and where the report
should be filed.
Æ What shipboard verification
procedures should be encouraged/
required, and how can these procedures
facilitate verification? As specified in
Annex VI, assessment of a ship’s
compliance with the fuel sulfur limits
relies on examination of bunker delivery
notes and, potentially, analysis of the
MARPOL sample. Stakeholders are
encouraged to indicate how this system

can be improved to provide timely
analysis of this information (e.g., shipprepared summary reports of bunker
delivery notes). Stakeholders are also
invited to provide input on other
methods to verify compliance, such as
onboard fuel sampling or other types of
verification (e.g., continuous SOX
emission monitoring).
Æ What methods and procedures can
port States adopt to facilitate a level
playing field?
Æ What methods and procedures can
flag States adopt to facilitate a level
playing field?
Æ What type of guidance, if any,
would be helpful to ensure consistent
implementation and a level playing
field?
This meeting is open to the public.
