Unless otherwise specified, gas mixtures containing less than 5 per cent total acetylenes may be transported with no further requirements than those provided for the major components.

MFAG (Medical First Aid Guide) numbers are provided for information on the emergency procedures to be applied in the event of an incident involving the products covered by the IGC Code. Where any of the products listed are carried at low temperature from which frostbite may accur, MFAG no. 620 is also applicable.


Appendix 3

Ship/Shore Safety Check List

This Appendix comprises appropriate parts of the Ship/Shore Safety Check List, Guidelines relating to the Check List and a specimen letter for issue by the terminal representative to masters of tankers at terminals.

SHIP/SHORE SAFETY CHECK LIST

Ship's Name:

Berth:                                             Port:

Date of Arrival:                               Time of Arrival:

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETION:

The safety of operations requires that all questions should be answered affirmatively by clearly ticking ( \/ ) the appropriate box. If an affirmative answer is not possible, the reason should be given and agreement reached upon appropriate precautions to be taken between the ship and the terminal. Where any question is considered to be not applicable, then a note to that effect should be inserted in the remarks column.

A box in the columns 'Ship' and 'Terminal' indicates that checks should be carried out by the party concerned.

The presence of the letters A, P or R in the column 'Code' indicates the following:

A — any procedures and agreements should be in writing in the remarks column of this checklist or other mutually acceptable form. In either case, the signature of both parties should be required.

P — in the case of a negative answer, the operation should not be carried out without the permission of the Port Authority.

R — indicates items to be re-checked at intervals not exceeding that agreed in the declaration.
