Identifying Criteria for Determining Whether a Ship Produces Reduced Quantities of Waste and Manages It in a Sustainable and Environmentally Sound Manner

Directive (EU) 2019/883 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on port reception facilities for the delivery of waste from ships, amending Directive 2010/65/EU and repealing Directive 2000/59/EC specifies, inter alia, that Member States must require that ships calling at their ports pay a fee to cover the costs of operating port reception facilities. However, the fee shall be reduced if, inter alia, ‘the ship’s design, equipment and operation demonstrate that the ship produces reduced quantities of waste, and manages its waste in a sustainable and environmentally sound manner’ (Article 8(5)(b)). This report identifies criteria to determine that a ship produces reduced quantities of waste and manages it in a sustainable and environmentally sound manner, in support of an implementing act to be adopted in accordance to Article 8(5)(b) of Directive 2019/883/EU. To that end, a comprehensive literature review was conducted, stakeholders were surveyed, and interviews were held with a broad range of stakeholders.
