REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 1
Presenters: Maritime Authority of Jamaica
Vannessia Stewart
Legal Officer
Legislative Framework: MARPOL Convention
Accession to MARPOL in 1991
Accession to the 1997 Protocol in August 2008
MARPOL Annex VI came into force on 19 May 2005
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 2
Legislative Framework: MARPOL Convention – Local Situation
• Not [yet] incorporated into Jamaica's Domestic law.
• Draft Shipping (Prevention of Pollution from Ships) Act 2018 will incorporate the Convention including Annex VI provisions and Ship Energy Efficiency regulations.
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 3
Legislative Framework: OTHER LEGISLATION
• National Climate Change Policy and Action Plan (JNCCPA) (2013)
• The Natural Resources Conservation Authority (NRCA) (Air Quality) Regulations, 2006
Reg. 3 – Regulations presently; fixed installations only.
• The NRCA team is in the process of updating the Air Quality Regulations to incorporate provisions covering the regulation and monitoring of emissions from transportation sources
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 4
Legislative Framework: Other Relevant Treaties • United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC),
New York, 1992
Date of Accession - January 6, 1995
Broadly, the objective of the UNFCCC is to stabilize the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere to levels which would prevent the occurrence of dangerous climate events as a result of
human activity.
• Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change, Kyoto, 1997
Date of Accession - June 28, 1999
The Kyoto Protocol extends the 1992 UNFCCC and commits State Parties to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions, based on scientific agreement that global warming is occurring and that accumulating
CO2 emissions resulting from human actions have predominantly caused it.
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 5
Legislative Framework: MARPOL ANNEX VI
• Challenges in the incorporation of Annex VI
• Competing legislative priorities: Low priority of MARPOL legislation
in general
• Man-power constraints: legislative drafters
• Complexity of technical provisions
• Absence of national policy
• Political will: Lack of inclusive vision
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 6
Enforcement & Compliance will require the cooperation and active inputs of all the industry players, for Port States particularly at the local level: The areas in which training & sensitization will be required

REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI 18
• Technology Uptake• Major Port facility operators have taken up the clean port challenge as a
matter of prudent operating economics in the face of soaring fuel cost and port workers’ wellbeing and health concerns
• Presently Flagged vessels (large) only – currency of IAPP Certificates and related information
• Owners/Operators have responded to the instructions of: 2016 Guidelines for the development of a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) ( resolution MEPC.282(70) ) by engaging third party verifiers to assist with the collection and verification of fuel consumption data
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI
Energy Efficiency Operation of Ships
Technology Uptake & Barriers - ANNEX VI
19
• Technology Uptake Barriers Presently, no maritime GHG emission reduction technology incentives
on offer (by the government)
Jamaica has no industrial level Energy Efficiency Technology research programmes –
• courses are taught in colleges;
• Government initiative of country’s electricity grid;
• presence of commercial retail operations
REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON MARPOL ANNEX VI
Energy Efficiency Operation of Ships
Technology Uptake & Barriers - ANNEX VI
20
• Technology Uptake Barriers – Shipboard
The present non-mandatory nature of the fuel consumption and data requirements of the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) – some push back from industry
Cost of hardware and systems – new and retrofitting
Availability of reliable operational components – hardware; software; adequately trained crew; compatible port interfaces; willing corporate adopters
Legislation – enforceable national legislations;
Economic – market share of importer/exporter states dictates vessel visit: vessel size, frequency, required port facility infrastructure investment and services offered

Energy Efficiency Operation of ShipsTechnology Uptake & Barriers - ANNEX VI
Barriers to establish a uniform data collection reporting system for the Caribbean region under one window:
• Capacity/technology infrastructure in the various ports in the region
• Varying stage of legislative development
• Varying levels of port operation sophistication
• Cooperation of shipowners and operators
• Confusion among industry players in making a clear distinction between the Data Collection outputs of GloMEEP and that of MTCC projects

Partnerships Opportunities
MARPOL ANNEX VI
• Port State Control - Human resource that can be made available to assist with the training other PSC Officers in the region.
• Between MTIs and other tertiary institutions – CMU, UWI, UTECH,
• Business sector interests – Shipping Agents, SAJ
• GoJ - Climate Change Division
• CARICOM Secretariat – Caribbean Community
• CMoU for training of PSC Officers for monitoring and enforcement of MARPOL Annex VI
