2、 Foreword Foreword In May 2009, the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (Ship Recycling Convention) was formally adopted at a Diplomatic Conference in Hong Kong. The purpose of the Ship Recycling Convention is to prevent, reduce, minimize and,
3、 to the extent practicable, eliminate accidents, injuries and other adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by ship recycling, and to enhance a vessels safety, protection of human health and the environment throughout a vessels operating life (Article 1). Specific regulations for
4、safe and environmentally sound recycling of vessels are annexed to the Convention. In order to adopt procedures for facilitating the effective implementation of the Convention, IMO has been focusing its efforts in developing a set of guidelines for the development of the inventory of hazardous mater
5、ials, development of a ship recycling plan, authorization of ship recycling facilities, and safe and environmentally sound ship recycling etc. Essential to the implementation scheme of the Convention is the development and maintenance of a document referred to as the Inventory of Hazardous Materials
6、 (“Inventory” or “IHM”), which was previously known as the “Green Passport” (GP) in IMO Resolution A.962(23), IMO Guidelines on Ship Recycling. The Inventory is vessel-specific and covers the whole life of the vessel, from construction, throughout the vessels operating life up to the time of prepara
7、tion for scrapping at the end of the vessels useful life. The main differences between an Inventory and a Green Passport is that compared to a Green Passport, an Inventory requires a more detailed and reasonably accurate account of the listed hazardous substances in the inventory and the additional
8、procedure of sampling where required, to be carried out for existing vessels. Since the introduction of the ABS Guide for the Class Notation Green Passport (GP) in March 2011, several revisions to the guidelines have been adopted by IMO, these revisions have further assisted in a more accurate prepa
9、ration of the Inventory. This ABS Guide for the Inventory of Hazardous Materials supersedes the ABS Guide for the Class Notation Green Passport (GP), 2011 (Updated February 2014). For the details of the issuance of a new ABS IHM notation and the conversion of a vessels ABS GP notation to the IHM not
10、ation please refer to Subsection 1/7 through 1/11 of this Guide. This Guide provides the ABS requirements for the review and verification of the initial Inventory for new construction vessels and existing vessels and also for the maintenance, verification and endorsement of the Inventory for a vesse
11、l in service. The initial inventory covers mainly Part I of the IHM, as it is the only part that needs to be maintained during the life of the vessel. The preparation and review of Parts II and III of the IHM are outside the scope of this Guide. See also 3/4.5.3. This Guide incorporates the requirem
12、ents of IMO Resolution MEPC.269(68), 2015 Guidelines for the Development of the Inventory of Hazardous Materials, which are all contained in their entirety in Section 3 of this Guide. The parts in this Guide which are additional classification requirements and ABS interpretations of the aforemention
13、ed Ship Recycling Convention and/or Resolution are presented in non-italics “Times New Roman” type style. Under these parts are also, wherever applicable, ABS interpretations of IMO, IACS and other related instruments. The application of this Guide is optional. However, recognizing the increasing at
14、tention of the maritime community on the protection of the marine environment and occupational health and safety relating to ship recycling, which is further supported by Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on ship recycling (EU SRR), the compliance with which
15、is considered as a route for early ratification of the Ship Recycling Convention, designers, shipbuilders, shipowners and operators are encouraged to apply this Guide. This Guide becomes effective on the first day of the month of publication. Users are advised to check periodically on the ABS websit
16、e www.eagle.org to verify that this version of this Guide is the most current. We welcome your feedback.

36、 hazardous materials used in a vessels construction and operations is increasingly recognized as a means to enhance onboard safety and environmental awareness, both throughout the ships economic life and at the end of the vessels useful life, when the ship is being prepared for recycling. This Guide
37、 has been developed with the objective of assisting designers, equipment suppliers, shipbuilders, ship repair facilities, operators and owners in the practical and reasonable formulation and maintenance of this inventory. 3 Application This Guide is applicable to new and existing vessels for which a
38、n Inventory has been submitted for review and verification to the satisfaction of ABS, thereby enabling issuance of the notation IHM. Obtaining this notation would assist owners and operators to comply with Regulations 4, 5 and 10 of the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmen
39、tally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009 (SR/CONF/45). 5 Scope This Guide has been developed with the objective of promoting the industrys ongoing commitment to providing safe working conditions of the vessels crew, protecting the marine environment and in recognition of the maritime communitys efforts,
40、 as a stake holder, assisting in the safe and environmentally sound recycling of vessels. The Guide includes information on inventorying hazardous materials on new or existing vessels, conducting verification surveys and the issuance and maintenance of the ABS notation IHM. This Guide covers mainly
41、the ABS requirements for the review and verification survey of Part I, the hazardous and potentially hazardous materials in a vessels structure and equipment as detailed in the Inventory. Parts II and III, covering the operationally generated waste and stores are not required to be completed and hen
42、ce are not subject to review until a vessel is in the process of being prepared for recycling. However, see also 3/4.5.3. 7 Notation At the request of the owner, vessels which have had their Inventory reviewed and verified to the requirements of this Guide to the satisfaction of ABS Survey, will rec
43、eive the ABS notation IHM. The requirements in this Guide for the purpose of obtaining the ABS notation IHM are to be considered as additional to all other relevant requirements of the ABS Rules and Guides. Compliance with the applicable requirements of the following IMO documents, specifically with
44、 regard to the inventory of hazardous materials, is a prerequisite: i) IMO SR/CONF/45, Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009, in particular with the following Regulations: Regulation 4 Controls of ships hazardous materials Regulation 5 Inv
45、entory of Hazardous Materials: paragraphs 1-3 Regulation 10 Surveys: subparagraphs 1.1-1.3 ii) IMO Resolution MEPC.269(68), 2015 Guidelines for the Development of the Inventory of Hazardous Materials ABSGUIDE FOR THE INVENTORY OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS .2016 1 Section 1 Introduction 9 Issuance of the I
46、HM Notation i) The IHM notation is available to vessels contracted for construction on or after the effective date of this Guide. ii) The IHM notation is also available to Existing vessels subject to compliance with the requirements of 3/4.2.3, along with the ABS requirements specified in 3/4.2.3 of
47、 this Guide. 11 Maintenance of GP Notation and Conversion from GP to IHM Notation i) Those vessels that currently possess a GP notation will continue to be eligible to maintain the GP notation, provided the requirements contained within the ABS Guide for the Class Notation Green Passport (GP) contin
48、ue to be satisfied. ii) Vessels under construction as of the date this Guide becomes effective may receive a new ABS notation IHM, provided the GP notation was requested prior to the date this Guide becomes effective. A vessel is “under construction”, for purposes of this provision, if the contract
49、date for construction between the shipbuilder and the prospective owner is prior to the date this Guide becomes effective. iii) Existing vessels that have a GP Notation may receive an IHM notation provided: These vessels have Inventories that have been prepared using the procedure for “new vessels” in compliance with 3/4.1 of this Guide, or These existing vessels which currently maintain an Inventory prepared by using the procedure for “existing vessels” in compliance with 3/4.2 of this Guide, along with their Inventorys being reviewed and revis
