General requirements Mallilausekkeet
General requirements. The venting systems of cargo tanks are to be entirely distinct from the air pipes of the other compartments of the ship. The ar- rangements and position of openings in the cargo tank deck from which emission of flammable vapours can occur shall be such as to minimize the possibility of flammable vapours being admitted to enclosed spaces containing a source of ignition, or collect- ing in the vicinity of deck machinery and equipment which may constitute an ignition hazard. In accordance with this general principle, the criteria in paragraphs 5.3.2 to 5.3.5 and regulation 11.6 will apply.
General requirements. 9.3.1.1 The potential hazards of the cargoes in Group B and falling within the classifica- tion of 9.2.2 and 9.2.3 entail the need for seg- regation of incompatible cargoes. Segrega- tion shall also take account of any identified subsidiary risk.
9.3.1.2 In addition to general segregation as between whole classes of materials there may be a need to segregate a particular material from others. In the case of segregation from combustible materials this shall be under- stood not to include packaging material, ceil- ing or dunnage; the latter shall in these cir- cumstances be kept to a minimum.
9.3.1.3 For the purpose of segregating in- compatible materials, the words “hold” and “compartment” are deemed to mean a cargo space enclosed by steel bulkheads or shell plating and by steel decks. The boundaries of such a space shall be resistant to fire and liq- uid.
9.3.1.4 When two or more different solid bulk cargoes of Group B are to be carried, the segregation between them shall be in ac- cordance with 9.3.4.
9.3.1.5 Where different grades of a solid bulk cargo are carried in the same cargo space, the most stringent segregation provi- sions applicable to any of the different grades shall apply to all of them.
9.3.1.6 When solid bulk cargoes of Group B and dangerous goods in packaged form are to be carried, the segregation between them shall be in accordance with 9.3.3.
9.3.1.7 Incompatible materials shall not be handled simultaneously. Upon completion of loading one cargo, the hatch covers of every cargo space shall be closed and the decks cleaned of residue before the loading of other material is commenced. When discharging, the same procedures shall be followed.
9.3.1.8 To avoid contamination, all food- stuffs shall be stowed: .1 “separated from” a material which is indicated as toxic;
General requirements. 3.1.1 Prior to and during loading, carriage and discharge of a solid bulk cargo, all nec- essary safety precautions shall be observed.
3.1.2 A copy of the instructions on emer- gency response and medical first aid relevant to incidents involving dangerous goods in solid form in bulk shall be on board.
General requirements. 8 Each Party shall notify the Organization for transmission to the Parties concerned of all cases where the facilities provided under this regulation are alleged to be inadequate.
1 This regulation applies to fixed or float- ing platforms including drilling rigs, floating production, storage and offloading facilities (FPSOs) used for the offshore production and storage of oil, and floating storage units (FSUs) used for the offshore storage of pro- duced oil.
2 Fixed or floating platforms when en- gaged in the exploration, exploitation and as- sociated offshore processing of sea-bed min- eral resources and other platforms shall com- ply with the requirements of this Annex ap- plicable to ships of 400 gross tonnage and above other than oil tankers, except that: .1 they shall be equipped as far as practica- ble with the installations required in regula- tions 12 and 14 of this Annex;
