Application all Croatian flagships in international trade and all ships calling at ports in Croatia or navigating the ISW; TS or EEZ shall not apply: - Ships which navigate exclusively in the internal sea waters or territorial sea - Not designed to carry ballast water or have permanent BW - Warships, public vessels, etc. Extention to national trade (Ministry may, . . . ) Exceptions (safety, same location) Exemptions (Reg. A-4)
Ballast water management ballast water exchange ballast water treatment ballast water discharge into reception facilities retaining ballast water on board the ship

BW Exchange/Control Standard When D-1 Standard is applied. BW on discharge should not have salinity of less than 36%o If yes- additional testing. No more than 105 cells L-1 of mycroplanctons and no dynophlagelate cysts
Barcelona, OSPAR and Helsinki Convention- Guidelines Resolution on temporary voluntary application of D 1 standard for Ballast Water Exchange for ships navigating between the Mediteranean Sea and North. East Atlatic and/or Baltic Sea Application from 1 Oct 2012
Ballast Water Exchange in semienclosed and enclosed seas
BW Exchange Zone? ? ? o Concentration of traffic o Concentration of unmannaged BW in most sensitive area o Secondary introduction o Dumping site?
Ballast Water Reporting Apply to all ships to which the Convention applies 48 hours in advance or after departure from the last port Standardized form Part of general reporting formalities (CIMIS)

Survey and Certification Section E of the BWM Convention Certificates- ships ≤ 400 GT Approved BWM Plan- all ships (Guidelines G 4) Ballast Water Record Book
Port State Control Documentation Check Development of protocol for ballast water sampling Guidelines for inspectors Sampling and testing Co-operation of PSC officers/laboratories Training
Port Baseline surveys Port Authorities must conduct port baseline studies in order to determine the state of the sea in port area. Development of protocols for Port Baseline surveys according to CRIMP Protocol The Ministry has provided in the budget for 2011 and 2012 funds for PBS In 2014 -aditional PBS within BALMAS Project Collection of data for risk assessment
28 Adriatic co-operation BALMAS Project • Monitoring activities (baseline surveys and monitoring in ports)exchange of information • BW Reporting • BW Risk Assessment (Invasive Alien Species Risk Assessment, Prepare strategic impact assessment) • Early warning system • DSS • PSC including sampling- exchange of info • Training activities • Sediment reception facilities- guidelines and best practice • Promotion of BW Convention implementation
Post-ratification Advantages (+) Challenges (-) Political will Convention not yet in force Public awareness Additional motivation of stakeholders Structured tasks Defined institutional framework Industry concerns Availability of technology Uncertainty in PSC rules and standards Implementation availability concerns Civil society concerns
Uncertainty Psc standards vis-a-vis G 8 standards Implemantation dates Short Sea Shipping- exemption? Costs
