Foreword The harmful effects of unwanted species in ships Ballast Water was first reported to IMO in 1988, when Cana

In response, the MEPC adopted in 1991 the first voluntary guidelines for preventing the introduction into the marine environment of unwanted aquatic organisms and pathogens from ships Ba

5、llast Waters and sediment discharges. Following the UN Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, the MEPC guidelines were reviewed and adopted as an Assembly resolution in 1993. The twentieth session of the IMO Assembly in 1997 adopted resolution A.868(20) “G

6、uidelines for the control and management of ships ballast water to minimize the transfer of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens” which superseded earlier and less comprehensive guidelines. The new resolution requested Governments to take urgent action in applying the guidelines and to report any

7、 experience gained in their implementation to the MEPC. The resolution further requested the MEPC to work towards the completion of legally binding provisions on ballast water management together with guidelines for their uniform and effective implementation. From 1999 onwards, the Ballast Water Wor

8、king Group, established by MEPC in 1994, focused on the preparation of a free-standing Convention on control and management of ships ballast water and sediments. In 2002, the World Summit on Sustainable Development held in Johannesburg, called for action at all levels to accelerate the development o

9、f measures to address invasive alien species in ballast water. The introduction of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens to new environments has been identified as one of the four greatest threats to the worlds oceans (the other three being land-sourced marine pollution, overexploitation of living

10、 marine resources and destruction of habitat). Proper control and management of ships ballast water is therefore a major environmental challenge for IMO and the global shipping industry. In accordance with Article 2(b) of the Convention on the International Maritime Organization, the Council agreed

11、in principle to convene a diplomatic conference in 2003 to consider the adoption of the instrument. At its eighty-ninth session in November 2002, the Council reconsidered the matter, in view of the preparations made by MEPC, and approved the convening of the Diplomatic Conference in early 2004. The

12、decision of the Council was endorsed by the twenty-third session of the Assembly in December 2003 and the International Conference on Ballast Water Management for Ships was held at IMOs Headquarters in London from 9 to 13 February 2004. . 111 Foreword The Conference adopted the International Convent

13、ion for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water and Sediments (the Ballast Water Management Convention), together with four conference resolutions. This publication contains the texts of the Convention and the four resolutions, aiming to provide an easy reference to administrators, shipown

14、ers, ship operators, port officers, seafarers and any other interested parties. It should be noted that, for legal purposes, the authentic text of the Convention should always be consulted. iv Avant-propos Cest en 1988 que les effets nuisibles des especes indesirables dans les eaux de ballast des na

A la suite de cela, le MEPC a adopte en 1991 les premieres directives facultatives visant B

16、prevenir Iintroduction dans le milieu marin dorganismes aquatiques et dagents pathogenes indesirables par suite des rejets deaux de ballast et de sediments par les navires. A la suite de la Conference des Nations Unies sur Ienvironnement et le dkveloppement (CNUED), tenue a Rio de Janeiro en 1992, l

17、es directives du MEPC ont et6 revisees et adoptees sous couvert dune resolution de IAs- semblee en 1993. A sa vingtieme session tenue en 1997, IAssemblCe de IOMI a adopt6 la resolution A.868(20), intitulee (Directives relatives au contrble et a la gestion des eaux de ballast des navires en vue de re

18、duire au minimum le transfert dorganismes aquatiques nuisibles et dagents pa- thogeness, laquelle a annule et remplace les precedentes directives qui etaient moins exhaustives. Cette nouvelle resolution priait les gouvernements de prendre de toute urgence des dispositions pour appliquer les directiv

19、es et de rendre compte au MEPC de Iexperience acquise dans leur application. La resolution priait egalement le MEPC doeuvrer B la mise au point de dis- positions juridiquement obligatoires sur la gestion des eaux de ballast et de directives pour leur application uniforme et effective. A partir de 19

20、99, les travaux du Groupe de travail sur les eaux de ballast, constitue par le MEPC en 1994, ont porte essentiellement sur Idaboration dune convention autonome pour le contr6le et la gestion des eaux de ballast et sediments des navires.
