Harmonised System of Surveys and Certification:

Fully implemented
Certification General
Where a full term certificate has expired and the survey can not be held due to the ship not being in a port
where the survey can be held, an HSSC certificate may be extended in accordance with the applicable
HSSC regulations for the issue of certificates and having ensured the agreement of the Administration. The
ship may be notified by fax and the certificate endorsed at the next port where the endorsement on the
certificate can be made. A copy of the fax is to be forwarded to the Greek authorities. Such extensions may
only be granted where there are no outstanding items certificate(s) concerned. The renewal survey is to be
held at the first suitable opportunity.
Issuance of certificates to ships and companies by ROs securing public income

Statutory certificates (including copies of these certificates) are subject to a standard Stamp Fee in favour
of the Public, NAT, EKOEMN, MTN.
2 of 62
Services are provided by members of the Lloyd's Register Group. 13/04/22
Statutory certificates issued by an RO abroad to Greekflagged vessels that operate exclusively outside
Greece do not need to be stamped (i.e. provided the location of issue of the certificate stated on the ship's
certificate is outside Greece and the ship operates exclusively abroad, then she is exempted from the
te 's
Stamp Fee requirement). If the ship calls at a Hellenic Port however, then the obligation of stamping her
certificates applies.
The Competent Service of the Administration is to be contacted for further information or clarification if
necessary.
is yd
In view of the above, managing companies/owners are required to submit the required stamps/deposits to
the Administration promptly in order to avoid problems during the issuance of certificates. For certificates
issued in Piraeus, the owners/managers should arrange to submit the necessary stamps/deposits to
Hellenic Lloyd's Piraeus Office prior to the certificates being issued.
r
Reporting General
eg lo
A copy of all certificates issued to Greek flagged ships is to be forwarded to the address above.
As soon as possible after completing the initial survey and inspection functions, LR is to send the
Administration a confirmation that the ship complies with the relevant requirements and that all reports on
R L
initial surveys have been received, controlled and filed. A copy of general arrangement drawings are to be
submitted for ships that have not previously been registered in the Greek Register.
Combined safety certificates are NOT to be issued.

©
LR (Piraeus Devolved Classification Office) is to advise the Administration of all outstanding items on change
of class to LR and for ships leaving LR class.
When LR is about to issue certificates to a Greek flagged ship for the first time when the previous certificate
was issued by the Greek administration the following applies:
Within two working days from the submission of the request by the shipowners, LR is to send a written
notification to the Administration including the ship's details, name of ship, IMO number, Port and Number of
Registry, and a list of the certificates which are to be issued.
LR is to inform the Administration where alterations of the operational limitations of crafts contained either in
the class certificate/appendix of a class certificate or in the safety certificates issued by LR on behalf of the
Administration, LR should inform the Administration in writing, including the reasons for such an alteration
within two months.
LR is to advise the Administration as soon as possible in writing when LR suspends, withdraws, cancels or
seriously alters the operational limitations of its classification or statutory certificates for a ship flying the
Greek flag together with the reasons why such action was taken.
When the general condition of a ship or its equipment in important respects does not correspond
substantially with the particulars of any of the certificates, or if its condition is found to be such that the ship
is not fit to proceed to sea without danger to the ship or persons on board or presenting an unreasonable
threat of harm to the marine environment, the LR surveyor concerned, if the defects observed and brought
to the master's attention with the remark that their nonrectification will result in the withdrawal of certificates
are not rectified, shall immediately withdraw the applicable statutory certificates. LR is to send a letter to the
ship's managing/owning company and to the master of the vessel via the company stating that the
certificate is invalidated and withdrawn, and request that the certificate in question be surrendered. A copy
of the letter is to be sent immediately to the Administration by the most expedient means.
LR is to send a written notice to owners immediately in the case of expired certificates and when regular
surveys have not been carried out, or when recommendations of a kind that does not affect the validity of a
certificate are overdue. If these problems are not rectified, LR is to submit a copy of the notice to the
Administration together with a report explaining LR's further actions.
New buildings and change of flag to Greece

Whenever a request for classification of a ship that will be or has been registered in the Greek register is
received, the Society shall immediately inform the Administration.
3 of 62
A copy of the GA is to be sent to the Administration.
te 's
The Administration is to be informed in writing when a final decision on the assignment of class has been
taken by LR. The information is to include any restrictions and essential conditions relating to the class or
statutory certificates regarding the operation and trading area of the ship and any significant deviation from
LR's rules.
is yd
Newbuilding and Conversions taking place in Greece
During new buildings and conversions taking place within Greece regular reports are to be forwarded to the
Administration in accordance with Protocol 4212.1/001/22.07.04. This applies to all ships regardless of flag.
LR Piraeus has in place a procedure for complying with the protocol.
r
The Administration has access to Class Direct.

Extended DryDockings
Greek flag container vessels, can be provided with an extension to the drydock inspection date provided
that the requirements attached here are complied with
R L
Exemptions, Equivalents, Alternative Arrangements, Waivers, Extensions of
Certificates
All requests for exemptions must be made to the administration, via Piraeus CFO, together with a technical
©
explanation for the request.
In instances where, temporarily, the requirements of an applicable instrument cannot be met under
particular circumstances, LR's surveyor is to specify such measures or supplementary equipment as may
be required to permit the vessel to proceed to a suitable port where permanent repairs or rectifications can
be effected or replacement equipment fitted. A telex or fascimile report should be urgently sent to the
Administration giving details of the problem and arrangements made in accordance with the provisions,
asking for approval.
LR is authorised to extend the validity of statutory certificates in accordance with the provisions of the
applicable international conventions and/or national legislation. In all cases, LR is to inform the
Administration immediately upon granting such an extension.
Change of Flag and/or Transfer of Class

Transfer of Class
At transfer of Class LR is to ensure that it has obtained all relevant information on the survey status of the
ship, including structural and operational limitations and outstanding recommendations given by the
previous Class society. The structural and operational limitations of the ship are to be checked and agreed
to by LR. If the ship is not classed this procedure above also applies.
Outstanding recommendations given by the previous Class society are to be followed up by the RO and it is
to be ensured they are completed within the time limits set by the previous class society. The above
conditions are to be taken into account before the assignment of class to a ship, or before a nonclassed
ship is registered with the RO. This includes items relating to the ISM code.
LR is to advise the Administration of all outstanding items on transfer of Class to LR and for ships leaving
LR Class.
MED ships changing Flag to Greece

Any marine equipment on board a ship changing Flag to Greece which does not comply with the
requirements of the MED Directive as amended will need to be issued with a certificate by LR indicating
that it is of an equivalent type. This certificate must be accompanied by and include the permit for its
placement on board the vessel, as well as possible limitations or conditions in respect of its use. The type of
assessment required prior to the issue of the certificate is to be decided by LR. All documentation relating to
the certificate issued is to be kept for the whole life of the vessel and a copy is also to be kept in LR's
records.

Port State Control
te 's
On notification that a Greek flag ship has been detained the administration require that LR attend onboard.
The Administration is also to be informed immediately.
Note that the Greek administration obliges the master to inform LR if a ship is detained.
On completion of surveys carried out the administration is to be informed. In addition, details of the last
normal survey(s) are to be included in the message.
is yd
A brief report on the owners' investigation about the possible causes that led to the detention is to be
submitted to the Administration when received from the owner after each detention cases and especially
those imposed by the PSC Authorities on ships subjected to the provisions of Directive 1999/35/EC.
In cases when a detained ship was released without being attended by an LR surveyor, the survey for the
r
rectification of the discrepancies or irregularities found by the Port State Control officer is to be concluded in
eg lo
the next most convenient port of call. LR is to keep the Administration informed in these cases.
Programme of increased supervision following repeated cases of, or serious, detentions
A programme of increased supervision for ships with a record of frequent Port State Control detentions or
serious detentions has been adopted.
1 . A detention is considered serious if it is a justified detention during which the ascertained deficiencies
R L
indicate that the requirements of the Safety Management System are being incorrectly applied. An example
of a serious detention would be the detection by the Port State Control Inspector of several deficiencies that
lead to a detention and that indicate insufficient adherence to the maintenance procedures on board the
ship.
©
2 . The programme of increased supervision includes the measures which are listed below:
Incident Improving Measure

Serious case of justified Additional ISM inspection on board the ship by the certifying RO and/or the
detention concerning the Authority within a month of the date of the detention
safety of the ship and the
protection of marine
environment
2 justified detentions of the Additional inspection by the RO certifying the ship from ISM aspects and/or
same ship within 12 months the Authority, to the extent of an Intermediate Survey of the ship' s Safety
Management System and an additional inspection of the Company to the
extent of an annual inspection. In addition, the ship is to be subjected to an
unscheduled inspection by a Technical Surveying Team of YEN/KEEP at the
most convenient port of call.
3 justified detentions of the Withdrawal of the ship' s Safety Management Certificate until completion of
same ship within 24 months an additional inspection on the ship by the Authority to the extent of an Initial
Survey. An additional inspection of the Company by the Authority to the
extent of an annual inspection within a month of the date of the last
detention will also be necessary.

R L
practicable, the Authority shall be guided by the following for reaching a decision regarding granting an
extension of the validity of the certificate:
 Carrying out an additional survey, at least to an equivalent extent to the required annual survey for the
issuance of the relevant certificate.
©
 Carrying out the required renewal survey to the greatest possible extent.
 In cases the ship's dry docking is required, but this cannot be carried out, an underwater examination
shall be carried out.
 In case an underwater examination is not possible (e.g. due to reduced visibility because of dirty water,
draught restrictions, strong sea currents, refusal of the competent Authority of the port State), the
internal structure of the hull shall be surveyed to the maximum extent that this practically possible.
 The ship shall sail direct to a known and agreed final port of unloading and later on direct to an also
known and agreed port where she will complete the survey or/and the dry docking.

installed. In this case a relevant Exemption Certificate will be issued by the ship's certification body. All of
the ship's Safety Certificates are to be valid for no more than two years following the date of compulsory
application.
Existing ECDIS installations

If ECDIS systems that comply with the requirements of Resolution A.817(19), as amended (provision of
relevant type approval certificates) are installed and operate on board, these may be accepted by the body
issuing the ship's Statutory Certificates as complying with the requirements of SOLAS V/19.2.10 if the
system was installed before 1 January 2009. In other situations, they are to be replaced with systems
9 of 62
complying with the requirements of Resolution MSC.232(82). A Raster Chart Display System is not
acceptable and is to be replaced with another system of an approved type.
te 's
Newly installed ECDIS
All ECDIS that are to be installed on board ships are to comply with the requirements of Resolution
MSC.232(82). The installation and operation is to be certified by the body issuing the ship's statutory
certificates. Prior to the issuing of the certification, the managing company is to submit to the certifying body
an "Installation File" which is to include the following certification data:
is yd
1. A statement from the manufacturer of the ECDIS or the company installing the ECDIS, that the ECDIS
has been installed and operates satisfactorily with the updated issue of its functionality and is provided
with the latest edition of the chart updates.
2. A statement from the manufacturer to the company that will install the system that the company has
been authorised and trained for such work.
3. A plan of the ship's Wheelhouse which is to show the arrangement of the ECDIS system(s) (primary or

A copy of the above mentioned File is to be kept on board the ship.
Backup arrangements for the ECDIS

If the Master of the ship has stipulated that the route planning (in accordance with SOLAS V/34) is to be
effected with the use of ECDIS in lieu of conventional charts, backup arrangements for the ECDIS are to
be provided on board the ship in accordance with SOLAS V/19.2.10. Vessels are not required to carry
conventional charts as backup arrangements for the ECDIS as long as they carry digital backup
arrangements. The prerequisite for this is that the backup arrangements are to fully cover the requirements
of Appendix 6 of Resolution MSC.232(82) for the new systems or the requirements of Appendix 6 of
Resolution A.817(19) for the systems that were installed before 1 January 2009. There is also to be a
relevant entry in the Equipment Type Approval Certificate. Irrespective of the above, a Raster Navigational
Chart or a Raster Chart Display System is not acceptable even as a back up ECDIS system.
If the backup arrangements are digital, these are to be completely independent of the primary ECDIS. It is
to be supplied with an independent energy source with a separate feeding, independent screen display,
parallel connection of the sensors data (e.g. GPS, gyro etc.), the connection of mutual sensors data (e.g. a
second GPS, gyro, THD, etc.)
It is acceptable that the display screen of the backup ECDIS is the same as the radar screen as long as all
of the following conditions are met:
1. There is to be a relevant possibility (e.g. radar overlay functionality) and this is to be expressly stated in
the ECDIS Type Approval Certificate.
2. The radar screen is to be certified as covering the requirements of both IMO Resolutions in each case
as an ECDIS backup screen.
3. The screen is not to be connected to Radar which is recorded in VDR or SVDR.
4. It is to be possible to select radar information display, or ECDIS, or both combined (without impairing
the information provision of each system).
5. There is to be at least two Radar units on board the ship.

3 Endorsement of the Safety Certificate
eg lo
If the BNWAS system has not been inspected by the body issuing the ship's statutory certification, the
relevant Passenger Ship Safety Certificate or the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate or the ship's
General Inspection Protocol is not to be issued/renewed/endorsed.
4 System updates or damage

The Master is to bear the responsibility for ensuring that the system is always functional and its software
R L
updated. If the system is damaged or malfunctions, the body issuing the statutory certification is to be
advised immediately. If the problem cannot be rectified immediately in the port of call of the ship, the body
issuing the statutory certification may grant an extension for the rectification of the malfunction until the ship
reaches the next port where the relevant corrective actions may be effected. In these cases, additional
©
measures are to be taken during the watch, so that an alternative manner of ascertaining the alertness of
the person on watch can be effected (e.g. via recording on the print of the ISM Code which is applied to
the ship or in the ship's Log Book at time intervals stipulated by the Master).
Nautical publications
Greece accepts nautical publications, as required by SOLAS Regulation V/19.2.1.4, such as sailing
directions, lists of lights, notices to mariners, tide tables and all other publications necessary for the
intended voyage in a digital format as meeting the requirements of SOLAS Regulation V/27, provided that
instant access at any time to the nautical publications is provided, that the ship is using information data
issued officially by or on the authority of a Government, authorised Hydrographic Office or other relevant
government institution and that the ship's master and navigational officers are trained to use the system.
Furthermore, it is required that:
 The publications in digital form are always available to the Officer of the Watch (OOW). It is not required
that the computer is placed on the bridge provided that it is possible to read and work with the data,
without limitations, from the bridge.
 The computer, which must solely be dedicated for the publications in digital form, is to always be
connected to the main and emergency power supply, regardless of the operational conditions.
 As a back up, the publications in digital form are to be installed on another computer on board so that
they can be made available to the OOW within a short period of time. This computer is to be dedicated
for shipboard administration only.
 The equipment and installation are to comply with the requirements of SOLAS Regulation V/17
regarding electromagnetic compatibility. It is also to be possible to display the date on a monitor without
impairing the OOW's night vision. MSC/Circ.1091 on issues to be considered when introducing new
technology on board ship, MSC Circ.891 on Guidelines for the onboard use and application of
computers and MSC/Circ.982 on Guidelines on ergonomic criteria for bridge equipment and layout are
to be taken into account. The relevant equipment and installation are to comply with regulations V/15,
17 and 18, as applicable.
 The software is protected from editing, viruses, etc.
The nautical publications in digital format are to be adequate and up to date for the intended voyage in
accordance with SOLAS Regulation V/27. Only original updates issued officially by, or on the authority of a
Government, authorised Hydrographic Office or other relevant government institution are to be used on
board. Such updates can be received electronically. Documentation for receipt of updates and installation
of these are to be available on board (i.e. delivery notes) at any time, incorporating such procedure into the
ship's ISM system.
12 of 62
This interpretation also includes Greek ships certified as High Speed Crafts in accordance with the HSC
Code 1994 or the HSC Code 2000.
te 's
Subject to the above conditions, the Administration accepts on all ships, irrespective of their size, nautical
publications in digital format as meeting the carriage requirements of SOLAS Regulations V/19.2.1.4 and
V/27, respectively.
Fire fighting appliances General
is yd
The Greek requirements for fire fighting appliances are given in Greek Presidential Decree 379/96.
Hellenic Authorities have agreed that they accept non galvanised valves (as required by 379 96) provided
they are so protected that the protection can be considered equivalent to the protection provided by the
galvanised material.
r
eg lo
Fire Mains, Sea water piping, and Fire Hydrants
The sea water piping should not be manufactured by cast iron and in case it is made of iron or steel it
should be zinc plated (galvanised). This includes valves and other components.
Lifejackets
For ships the keel of which were laid before 1 July 1986, the number of lifejackets required is in accordance
R L

For ships, the keels of which were laid on or after 1 July 1986, lifejackets additional to those provided for
each person the ship is certified to carry are required as follows:
©
 For persons on watch, four lifejackets when the number of crew is up to and including 16, and 25% of
the crew when the crew number is greater than 16. These are to be distributed in the wheelhouse and
the Engine Control Room and are to be located in conspicuous places.
 At every remotely stowed liferaft required in accordance with Reg III/26.1.4 or Reg III/26.3.2 of SOLAS
74/83, as well as in accordance with Reg. III/31.1.4 or Reg III/31.3.2 of SOLAS 1984 as amended by
IMO Res. MSC.47(66), at least two lifejackets are to be provided in clearly marked and accessible
positions, protected against moisture.
 P.D. 24/1988 remains valid.
Lifejackets for members of crew weighing up to 140 KG and with a chest girth of up to 1,750 mm
It is the responsibility of the Master and the Managing Company to ensure that a lifejacket suitable for the
body type of the person for which it is intended, is provided for each member of the crew. If any
crewmembers weigh up to 140 KG and have a chest girth of up to 1.750 mm, the ship is to be provided
with:
 a sufficient number of suitable accessories capable of being adjusted to the existing lifejackets (these
accessories will be accepted for use provide that the suitability of the lifejacket is not affected, and there
is relevant certification in accordance with its type approval certificate; or
 a sufficient number of lifejackets for crew members weighing up to 140 kg and with a chest girth of up
to 1,750 mm. These lifejackets may be included in the total number of lifejackets which the ship is to
carry.
All of this additional equipment must comply with the LSA Code and is to be provided with a relevant type
approval certificate in accordance with the EU MED Directive. All lifejackets must therefore be provided with
suitable lighting. The location in which the lifejackets intended for passengers outlined above, are to be

Fall Preventer Devices (FPDs)

FPDs are not mandatory on Greek Flag ships but will be accepted as long as the following is complied with:
1. it is necessary to obtain the Master's agreement for the use of FPDs while drills are carried out.
2. type approval for compliance of the above devices with the instructions of MSC.1/Circ.1327.
3. the agreement of the manufacturer of the lifeboat equipment , as well as relevant instructions regarding
their provision are to be obtained.
15 of 62
4. if it is necessary to modify the life saving appliances, the approval of the Organization or the Authority
that has certified the lifesaving appliances is to be obtained.
5. following completion of the drills, FPDs are not to remain secured with the lifeboat. Relevant
te 's
instructions are to be entered in the ship's Log Book.
Life rafts
Life raft service certificates issued to Greek flag vessels are to contain an entry, which clearly indicates that
any associated hydrostatic release device has been serviced and verified to remain efficient:
is yd
'Hydrostatic release mechanism No.. was inspected with satisfactory results.'
Certificates without the associated hydrostatic release device service endorsement will not be accepted.
When the release mechanism is of the non serviceable type the expiry date is to be checked and the
mechanism replaced if necessary.
r
For ships constructed before 1st July 1986 life rafts are to be positioned to provide for easy side to side
eg lo
transfer on a single open deck so that capacity for 100 per cent of crew can be provided on each side of the
ship.
The Greek Administration will not accept the use of knotted ropes as an "other means of embarkation" (see
SOLAS Reg III/31.1.4) on any ship, irrespective of date of build. The Administration is, however, prepared to
R L
consider on a case by case basis any application made by LR requesting a short extension period to be
granted for the replacement of existing knotted ropes with embarkation ladders.
First aid kits for lifeboats and inflatable liferafts

©
Lifeboats and inflatable liferafts are to be provided with first aid kits that include a quantity of medicines and
hygiene material in accordance with P.D. 376/95 as amended by P.D. 277/97 (this is the incorporation of EC
Directive 92/29/EC into national legislation).
The pharmaceutical and hygienic material included in these first aid kits are to be approved by the Hellenic
Organization of Medicines.
If the ship is outside Greek waters when any of the pharmaceutical products contained in the first aid
kit expire and it is not possible to obtain pharmaceutical products that are approved by the Hellenic
Organization of Medicines, or the ship is provided with new liferafts that originate abroad, the
pharmaceutical products may be provided with those that are approved by the Country in which they
originate. These products are to be replaced as soon as it is possible with others that are approved by the
Hellenic Organization of Medicines.
Thermal protective aids

Where open boats are provided, thermal protective aids are only required for crew not having immersion
suits. Additional TPAs are required as part of the boats equipment as per the Regulations.
Collision regulations
LR is authorized except for cargo ships of 500 tons gross tonnage and above engaged exclusively in
domestic voyages.
Pyrotechnics
All line throwing rockets and signal pyrotechnics are to be renewed at the date of expiry or after three years.
Immersion suits
In applying Regulation 32.3 , the Administration requires that one immersion suit for every member of the
crew be stowed in or near the lifeboats and/or rescue boats for which they are intended, and that their
location shall be clearly marked and shall be so arranged that they may be readily available for use. If the
crew accommodation spaces are close to the above life saving appliances, so that immediate access to the
immersion suits is ensured, immersion suits may be stowed within the crew accommodation spaces (e.g.
inside cabins or inside boxes in the alleyways).
For remote work stations and remote watch stations, at least two additional immersion suits are required to
be stowed near the entrances to these stations. A remote work station is defined as the station where work
is usually carried out and which is at a horizontal distance exceeding 100 metres from the point where
immersion suits are normally stowed. A remote watch station is defined as a watch station which is at a
horizontal distance exceeding 50 metres from the point where immersion suits are normally stowed.
16 of 62
Where work or watch stations (e.g. Engine Room, Wheelhouse, Bosun's Store) are not considered remote
as per the definitions above but, due to peculiarities of the ship's arrangements (arrangement of spaces
te 's
etc.), it is felt by the surveyor and/or ship's Master that evacuation cannot be achieved within 10 minutes
(SOLAS Reg III/31.1.5), then two immersion suits shall be required to be stowed near the entrances of each
of the stations in question.
When the ship is provided with a life raft forward, at least two additional immersion suits shall be stowed in
is yd
this space (station).
Ships engaged on voyages:
a) within the Mediterranean and Caribbean from 01/04 until 30/10;

b) within the Persian Gulf, Red Sea, and within the zone included between the parallels 20 degrees north
and 20 degrees south
r
eg lo
are exempted from the requirement to be provided with immersion suits and shall be provided with an
exemption certificate by LR in accordance with the guidelines issued under Ministerial Decision No.
YEN/4113.190/1/2004 (Model Agreement) which reads as follows :
"Exemptions from the requirements of the applicable instruments are the prerogative of the Administration
and must be initially approved by the Administration prior to being issued by the R.O. Renewals of
exemptions are not required to be re approved by the Administration provided that no changes have been
R L
effected relevant to the initial exemption issued."
The Administration is not in agreement with the use of immersion suits or antiexposure suits that also
comply with the requirements for lifejackets, i.e. the requirements of Ch. II, Sect. 2.2 of the Life Saving
©
Appliances Code (i.e. two in one), but requires the use of a lifejacket and an immersion suit, or anti
exposure aid, as the Administration considers that in case of emergency a lifejacket will be easier to use.
Immersion suits and thermal protective aids inspection requirements

Immersion suits and thermal protective aids are to be inspected by the ship's crew for compliance with MSC
circular 1047, MSC/Circ. 1114 and the manufacturer's guidance. During these inspections special attention
must be given to the packaging of these suits so as to avoid the presence of dust and dampness. If any
damage is found (e.g. tears etc) they are to be rectified as per manufacturer's instructions. A relevant
procedure shall be confirmed in writing in relevant records kept on board in accordance with Reg. SOLAS
III/36.
Concurrently with these inspections, training on the correct use of these suits by the crew members should
be carried out.
The language in the instruction booklets must be the working language of the ship.
LR is requested to implement the Circular on all required Greek ships on which they carry out the relevant
inspections.
At SE surveys LR is required to verify that that the inspections and training have been carried out.
Servicing of Lifesaving appliances and fire extinguishers

The duration of liferaft, MES and hydrostatic mechanisms servicing certificates must not exceed 12 months.
This may be extended by the body issuing the PSSC if:
the ship is obliged to sail and an authorised Service Station is not available in the port or the port area; or
the end of the period of validity is nearing and the Passenger Ship Safety renewal survey is to be carried
out shortly.
In both of these cases, the extension can be granted if the following conditions are met:
the fact that the equipment is in good condition has been ascertained (macroscopic examination). A
statement from the Master may be considered sufficient in this regard if it is not possible for the body that
issued the PSSC to visit the ship
the inflatable liferaft first aid kits remain valid during the requested period of extension. For this reason, the
date of expiry of the liferaft first aid kit is to be clearly stated on each liferaft servicing certificate.
In any case, the extension is not to exceed that stated in SOLAS III/20 (i.e. five months from the date of
expiry of the servicing certificate of the appliance). For a High Speed Craft, the extension period must not
exceed one month.
17 of 62
An extension to the servicing period of fire extinguishing systems (foam or CO2) as well as portable and
semiportable fire extinguishers, portable foam applicators, breathing apparatus and EEBDs may be
te 's
granted by the body that issued the PSSC if the reason for the extension is deemed to be valid. The
extension may not exceed three months. The equipment must be in good condition in terms of appearance,
maintenance and operational readiness a statement from the Master may be considered sufficient to
confirm this.
is yd
If ships (other than passenger ships) are at a port where there are no facilities to carry out the hydraulic
testing of fixed CO2 systems, portable and semiportable fire extinguishers, as well as breathing apparatus,
or there is not sufficient time to carry out the hydraulic testing, an extension may be granted until the ship
arrives at the next port of call in which the relevant facilities are available. This is on condition that an
Administration surveyor, local surveying team or RO ascertains that the bottles/fixed systems are in good
condition in terms of appearance and maintenance.

Servicing of lifesaving appliances and fire extinguishers
Lifesaving appliances can only be removed from passenger ships/passenger RoRos for servicing
purposes if the body that issued the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate (PSSC) has approved this and has
amended the Record of Equipment in question. This note should list the amended number of passengers,
lifesaving appliances and specialised personnel etc. Once this has been done, the Master must:
 update the Muster list to take into consideration the equipment that has been removed and the changed
crew duties;
22 of 62
 remove markings or symbols referring to, or leading to, the equipment that has been removed;
 revise any Sound or Visual Emergency instructions that refer to the existing equipment.
Compliance with the above is mandatory and should be confirmed by the body that issued the PSSC.
te 's
If the removal of the equipment means that there is not enough equipment to meet the statutory
requirements of the number of people on board (passengers and/or crew), the managing Company is
obliged to obtain the written agreement of the Administration.
is yd
The duration of liferaft, Marine Evacuation Systems (MES) and hydrostatic mechanisms servicing
certificates must not exceed 12 months. This may be extended by the body issuing the PSSC if:
 the ship is obliged to sail and an authorised Service Station is not available in the port or the port area;
or
 the end of the period of validity is nearing and the Passenger Ship Safety renewal survey is to be
carried out shortly.
r
In both of these cases, the extension can be granted if the following conditions are met:
eg lo
 the fact that the equipment is in good condition has been ascertained (macroscopic examination). A
statement from the Master may be considered sufficient in this regard if it is not possible for the body
that issued the PSSC to visit the ship
 the inflatable liferaft first aid kits remain valid during the requested period of extension. For this reason,
the date of expiry of the liferaft first aid kit is to be clearly stated on each liferaft servicing certificate.
In any case the extension is not to exceed that stated in SOLAS III/20 (i.e. five months from the date of
R L
expiry of the servicing certificate of the appliance). For a High Speed Craft, the extension period must not
exceed one month.
An extension to the servicing period of fire extinguishing systems (foam or C02) as well as portable and
©
semiportable fire extinguishers, portable foam applicators, breathing apparatus and EEBDs may be
granted by the body that issued the PSSC if the reason for the extension is deemed to be valid. The
extension may not exceed three months. The equipment must be in good condition in terms of appearance,
maintenance and operational readiness a statement from the Master may be considered sufficient to
confirm this.
Authorisations for the extensions mentioned above do not need to be obtained from the Administration.
MES
Unless more frequent deployments are defined by the manufacturer MES are to be deployed as follows: the
total number of MES of every ship shall be deployed once within a six year period such that every MES
shall be deployed at least once every six years.
If, during the deployment, a defect, malfunction or any other problem occurs then the malfunction, defect or
problem is to be rectified and then the MES redeployed to confirm satisfactory operation.
A record of deployments and crew training in MES is to be maintained in the ship's log book and an entry in
the Safety Management System.

(EC) 2172/2004 are complied with.
Oil filtering equipment

Application of MEPC.107(49)
In accordance with paragraph 1.3.1.1 of the Resolution, equipment installed on or after 1.1.2005, on ships
whose keels were laid before that date, are not required to meet the revised guidelines.
In accordance with paragraph 1.3.1.2 of the Resolution, New installations are interpreted as replacement
installations and Fitted is interpreted as Ordered on or after 1.1.2005, on ships whose keel was laid before
1.1.2005.
Capacity of the oil filtering equipment
Authorisation to fit an oil water separator with a capacity of less than that stipulated below must be obtained
from the Administration.
The capacity of the oil filtering equipment is not to be less than:
Gross Tonnage Minimum Capacity m3/h

Greater than or equal to 100 but less than 400 0,5
39 of 62
te 's
Greater than or equal to 6000 5,0
is yd
The above is applicable also to ships under the High Speed Craft Code. For this type of ship the capacity is
to be at least half of that required above.
For ships that carry ballast water in oil fuel tanks, the minimum capacity of the equipment is to be
determined by the following formula:
r
Q = V/10H where
eg lo
Q = capacity of equipment, in m3/hr
V = total capacity of oil fuel tanks used for water ballast, in m3

H = maximum period of voyage, in days
R L
Ships exempted under Regulation 16(3) (a) are to be provided with a holding tank with a capacity of not
less than:
©
Power of main engine Capacity, m3

Greater than 1000 1,5
Greater than or equal to 1000 but less than 20 000 1,5 + (P1000)/1500
Greater than or equal to 20 000 14,2 + 0,2(P20000)/1500
Where P = main engine power, in kW.
Each ship is to be provided with either a main sludge tank or three independent sludge tanks.
The capacity of the sludge tank for the lub oils that have been used shall be sufficient for the collection of all
the useless or used lubricating oils as well as of all oily residues that remain following the filtration operation
in the oily water separator of the 15PPM filtering equipment. The minimum capacity of this, for ships whose
main engines and electrical generators require full renewal of lub oils at sea, is determined in cubic metres
by the following formula:
V = 1.5 P/1000
Where P is the total power of the ship's main engines and electrical diesel generators in kW.
The tanks intended for the collection of dripping and leaking oil from the oil tanks may be located in different
parts of the engine room. The total capacity of these tanks is determined in m3 using the following formula:
U = 15HP/1,000,000 (m3)
Where
P = the total horsepower of the ship's engines and generators in kW
H = the number of days the voyage lasts
In case the ship is fitted with a sludge tank its capacity shall equal the sum of the capacities of the waste/
separated tank dripping/leaking oil tanks and sludge tanks.
40 of 62
In new ships the sludge tanks shall be so located or be provided with such systems that their stripping is
easy. The tank for oily residues resulting from the separating process, or the main sludge tank, shall be as
close to the oil separator as possible and in such a location so that the discharge piping of the oil separator
te 's
shall have the greatest possible inclination to the tank.
A waste/separated oil tank is to have a capacity of not less than V = 1.5P/1,000 where
P = total power of the main engines and diesel generators, in kW
is yd
Tanks for the collection of drain and leakage oil may be located in different parts of the engine room with a

H = the number of days the voyage lasts.
r
eg lo
On ships over 100 gross tonnes, the piping and valves used for the pumping, collection, processing and
disposal of machinery residues are to be painted orange.
Where oily water filtering equipment is replaced for whatever reason it is to comply with the above, except
that:
R L
Ships built after 1 January 1999 not originally built to Greek standards, which replace the oil water
separator, may install a new separator with a capacity less than required as defined above. Owners are to
submit a technical justification for not installing a separator of the required capacity to LR.
©
Piping
A. For ships of any category (passenger ships, cargo ships, tankers etc.) with a gross tonnage exceeding
100 tons gross:
(i) Piping and valves used for pumping out, collection, processing and discharge of machinery bilges oil
residues should be painted orange so that they are readily distinguished by the ship' s operators and
members of the crew as well as by the competent bodies carrying out scheduled and unscheduled
inspections.
(ii) An indicative label with the following statement: "Machinery Space oily mixtures suction and discharge
pump should be provided to every pump" used for the pumping out of machinery space oily mixtures, their
collection in the holding tank and their discharge to reception facilities by means of the standard connection
pump. All its discharge valves at the ship' s sides should be provided with labels stating that "discharges
overboard, by the use of the valves shall be prohibited excluding emergency cases." These valves should
be closed at all times, and in case they are remotely controlled, the label should be suitably placed near
remote control positions.
(iii) The collection of any quantity of oil residues or oily mixtures in barrels or in any space other than the
sludge or holding tanks referred to in the IOPP Certificate is prohibited.
(iv) The plan showing the oily mixtures collection, processing and discharged plant, approved by the D. C.
M. S. or the recognised Classification Societies, should be provided on the vessel.
B. For ships fitted with an oilywater separator or fuel/lub oil purifiers the above paragraph (A) should be
complied with and, in addition, the following should be ascertained:
(i) Sludge tanks, where the oil residues resulting from the oilywater separators or fuel or lub oil purifiers are
collected, should not be connected to any pipe terminating at the ship's side or to fuel tanks. If there is such
a connection, the connecting pipe should be either blanked off so that flow through it is stopped or the
valves leading overboard the f.o. tank should be locked. These tanks should be connected with the piping
provided with the standard discharge connection or to the piping leading to the incinerator or the
homogenizer or to any ship's boiler suitable for burning oil residues. It should be clarified that the suitability
of the boiler should be proven from the manufacturer's manual and specifications.
(ii) The pump used for the suction of sludge tank content should be independently diesel or motor driven
and be used exclusively for this purpose only. The fuel oil transfer pump or the oilywater separator pump,
if such equipment is on board, may also be accepted.
41 of 62
(iii) The discharge of oily mixtures and oil residue should be effected to the reception facilities by means of a
standard discharge connection with an independent piping system. Bunkering line is allowed to be used for
this purpose provided the section of this line connected to the sludge tank or tanks should be fitted with a
te 's
nonreturn valve and a spool piece. A label should be provided in a conspicuous position stating that "The
spool piece should be fitted in a position only when oil residues are discharged to reception facilities." A
valve and a NRV or a SDNR valve may be fitted in the above stated section of the line as an alternative.
As an alternative, the Administration will accept ISO 14726 colouring of piping systems.

Capacity of incinerators
When estimating the capacity of incinerators:
1. The following may be used for the estimation of the daily production of sludge and garbage.
a) Oily waste
V = (KxCx1000+15xP/1000) It./day
or
Q =( (KxCx1000+15xP/1000)x rho x 10 3 ) kg/day
Where
Regarding the daily operation time of the incinerator, this time shall be such as to ensure sufficient time
intervals, during 24 hours, for its maintenance, in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer,
while in each case the provisions of MARPOL Annex VI, Regulation 16, paragraphs 8 and 9, shall be
complied with.
K= 0.015 for vessels using heavy fuel oil which is purified before use.
0.005 using diesel oil or heavy fuel oil which does not require purification before use.
C= Daily fuel oil consumption (m3/day).
The daily fuel consumption may be estimated from the nominal continuous rating of the propulsion system
(NCR) and the installed rated power of the diesel generating sets in operation (i.e. the standby diesel
generating set may be excluded.)
P = Total rated power of propulsion and auxiliary diesel engines (kW).
rho = 980 kg/m3 (sludge density).
b) Garbage
Dry garbage 2 kg/person/day
43 of 62
Wet garbage 1 kg/person/day

Wastes from the daily maintenance of the vessel 11 kg/day
Mean garbage density: 250 kg/m 3
te 's
2. The following calorific values for sludge and garbage may be used:
2.1. 7000 kcal/kg for sludge
2.2. 4500 kcal/kg for dry garbage, consisting of 30% paper (0.3 x 3415 = 1025 kcal/kg), 40% cardboard
(0,4 x 3415 = 1366 kcal/kg), 10% rags (0,1 K 3700 = 370 kcal/kg), 20% plastic (0.2 x 8600 = 1720 kcal/kg).
is yd
2.3 1360 kcal/kg for wet garbage
2.4 4000 kcal/kg wasted
Storage of Garbage
On every ship a special space is to be provided where a suitable container of sufficient capacity shall be
located for the storage of garbage. The approximate volume of the container is to be calculated from the
r
following formula:
eg lo
V = A x 0.004 m3 / Day
Where :
V = the volume of the container in m3 for a voyage of one day duration

R L
A = the number of the persons on board
This container shall be of metal construction or of special reinforced plastic or of wood fitted with special
©
metal lining.
For this purpose wooden containers shall not be used because of the immediate danger of their becoming
rotten and producing unpleasant odours. The above mentioned containers shall be fitted with a cover which
shall be capable of being closed as tight as possible and be separated into two parts by an internal
transverse partition, so that food residues may be stored in one part and the remaining garbage in the other
part. It shall be taken into account that the capacity of the container is to be such so that it may
accommodate all the garbage produced on board the ship for the time interval that she will be sailing in an
area where the discharge of garbage at sea shall be prohibited. In case the ship space is not sufficient, the
interested parties shall be recommended to install compactors in order to reduce the volume of garbage.
The outside of the container shall have written on it the type of garbage that shall be stored in each of the
two spaces.
Dustbins
In all the ships' spaces where people live or work (decks, galleys, passenger sitting rooms, wheelhouse,
engine room etc) easy to use dustbins (containers) fitted with a cover shall be provided. In the galley, two
containers of different colour shall be provided for the collection of food residues in one of them and of the
remaining garbage in the other.
Provision of Notices
In all common spaces (main deck, galleys, passenger sitting rooms etc) there shall be provided in
conspicuous spaces labels of dimensions 12.5 cm x 20 cm, where the following shall be written in the
Hellenic and English languages:
THE DISPOSAL OF GARBAGE AT SEA SHALL BE PROHIBITED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PROVISIONS OF THE I.C. MARPOL 73/78.
Garbage Management Plan

In order to ensure the most effective manner of dealing with garbage on board the ship, a manual of dealing
with garbage shall be compiled by those in charge where the competencies of each crew member as well
as the procedures for dealing with the garbage shall be stipulated. In this Manual a competent Officer of
'environmental control' shall be defined. The manual is not required to be approved by the administration.

per person, as defined in paragraph 5.2 of European Directive 2009/45. "Free deck area" means every
space (open or closed) which is suitable for assembling (mustering) passengers.
Life saving appliance specifications

Life saving appliances carried on board ships of these classes are to comply with the provisions of SOLAS
or the LSA Code, depending on the date on which the equipment was placed on board subject to:
a. paragraph 51 of European Directive 2009/45 and

b. article 50 of PD 177/2000.
Equipment placed on board on or after 1 July 1998 and before EC Regulation 2099/2002 became
applicable, is at least to comply with the provisions of SOLAS that were in force on 17 March 1998.
Open type reversible liferafts or liferafts without insulation are not accepted by the Greek Administration.
Equipment placed on board will only be accepted if it is provided with acceptance data or written
certification in accordance with the provisions of the National Legislation.
Number of Iife saving appliances

In accordance with paragraph 2 of European Directive 2009/45, lifeboats/liferafts are to be equally
distributed on each side of the ship and the total number should be able to carry 110% of the total number
of people the ship is certified to carry.
However, ships which are required to comply with SOLAS 7 or pre SOLAS 74 provisions and which carry,
as life saving equipment, the necessary number and capacity of lifeboats, do not need to be provided with a
rescue boat. In such cases, if it is ascertained that it is impossible to use a lifeboat due to wastage, its
capacity is to be subtracted from the ship's carrying capability, without the possibility of temporary
replacement of the lifeboat by liferafts of equal capacity.
55 of 62
A sufficient number of survival craft is to be carried in order to ensure that in the event of any one survival
craft being lost or rendered unserviceable, the remaining survival craft can accommodate the total number
te 's
of persons the ship is certified to carry.
If the operation of a survival craft (lifeboat, liferaft or MES) is temporarily interrupted, due to lack of
maintenance or wastage, the requirement for the survival craft to be equally distributed remains valid.
Accordingly, the capacity of the survival craft or the MES on the other side of the ship continues to be taken

into account for the stipulation of the ship's carrying capacity.
Rescue boats
Notes (4) and (5) of paragraph 2 of Chapter III of Annex I of European Directive 2009/45 stipulates the
requirement for rescue boats. However, in certain cases this requirement may be exempted.
It is to be noted that:
a. Vessels with an overall length up to 45 metres may be exempted from the requirement to be provided

©
paragraph 2 of Chapter III of Annex I of European Directive 2009/45 are not complied with
e. the provision of the third subparagraph of note (5) of paragraph 2, does not necessarily require the
provision of two rescue boats on passenger vehicle carriers.
Rescue boats are to be manned by at least 2 persons and fast rescue boats are to be manned by at least 3
people who are specially trained. During abandonment of ship, the people manning the rescue boats are to
be assigned this duty exclusively. The Muster List is to be updated accordingly.
Marshalling of Lifeboats
This requirement is stipulated by the provisions of SOLAS 74/83 and the later provisions for ships engaged
on short international voyages and refers to the capability of the lifeboats and/or rescue boats to tow the
liferafts provided for the total number of people on board (SOLAS 74/83 III/41.6.8 and 47.1.6 as well as
paragraphs 4.4.6.9 and 5.1.1.7 of the LSA Code to a proportion of one lifeboat/rescue boat for 9 liferafts).
Consequently, this requirement will apply to ships which carry lifeboats of the relevant specifications (semi
closed or closed type) and/or rescue boats. The requirement applies to ships which must carry rescue
boat(s).
Ships that are not required to carry a rescue boat will also not be required to comply with the requirement
for marshalling.
Lifejackets
The number of inflatable Iifejackets provided for people working on board in exposed areas is 5 unless
there are fewer than 5 crew members. If there are fewer than 5 crew members, an inflatable lifejacket is to
be provided for every member of the crew, or at least 5, whichever is less. These lifejackets are to be
inspected every year in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Lifejackets are to be stowed near the muster stations within boxes marked as appropriate. They must also
be easily accessible (not tied up with ropes or locked).

is yd
crane and an embarkation ladder, irrespective of the height of embarkation, for each group of launchable
liferafts (not connected with MES), of a carrying capacity of up to 150 people.
Liferafts
In accordance with the provisions of Chapter III of Appendix I of Directive 2009/45/EC, there is no limitation
to the size of inflatable liferafts which may be provided on board ships which comply with this Directive. The
Administration has no objection to the use of inflatable liferafts irrespective of the number of occupants
r
provided these are serviced by the MES and are certified in accordance with the LSA Code.
eg lo
Launchable liferafts (not connected to MES) are to have a weight not exceeding 185 KGs (this mainly
relates to liferafts that can carry up to 25 people) and are to be easily carried from one side of the ship to
the other side on the same deck (no obstacles in the way). Their capacity is not to exceed 50 people.
If this can not be complied with, on ships engaged on voyages outside the limits of limited route voyages,
R L
for inflatable liferafts which cannot be carried from side to side on board the ship due to their weight (if they
exceed 185 KGs) or due to permanent obstacles/arrangements on board the ship, they are to be capable of
carrying 150% of the total number of people on board.
©
If the inflatable liferaft exceeds 185 KGs, the person in charge of the inflatable liferaft service stations is to
ensure that the total weight is indicated on the casing of the inflatable liferaft
The stowage of survival craft is to be carried out in accordance with section 7 of Appendix I of European
Directive 2009/45. It is to be noted that inflatable liferafts are to be stowed forward of the ship's propeller
and aft of the collision bulkhead. If these are stowed in groups, their capacity is not to exceed that of 150
people.
Ships engaged on voyages within the limits of limited route voyages are not required to be provided with a
rescue boat. However, they are to carry a common emergency boat (inflatable or rigid) instead. This is to be
at least 4 metres long and be fitted with an engine of at least 25 hp. The engine is to be fitted permanently
on the boat during the whole duration of the voyage. This boat and its launching appliance are to be stowed
on board the ship at such a point (always aft of the collision bulkhead) so that launching or throwing over of
other life saving appliances is not affected. The boat is to be launched from the side of the ship. The
launching appliance of the common emergency boat is to be of efficient construction so that this may be
recovered from the sea with 3 persons on board. For this reason, upon the installation of the boat, a static
test under 110% of its maximum load is to be carried out by an authorised servicing station in the presence
of the Master, while the maximum load (in kilograms) shall be marked on the launching appliance. The
launching appliance is to be fitted, apart from a manual system with a mechanical system also capable of
recovering the boat at its maximum load. Wire Ropes are to be used as falls, for which the maintenance
program of Section 12 of Chapter III of Appendix I of European Directive 2009/45 is to be followed.
Retroreflective material
Life saving equipment is to be fitted with retroreflective material in accordance with the guidelines
contained in Resolution A.658(16).
General alarm system

Ships of categories B, C and D are to be provided with a general alarm system which is to comply with the
requirements of paragraph 7.2.1.1 of the LSA Code. This system is to be connected to the ship's whistle
and is to automatically generate a distress signal via the whistle and via other means at the same time (e.g.
electrical bells or loudspeakers) in all accommodation spaces (passenger and crew), as well as in the crew
service spaces. The system is also to be capable of being activated primarily from the ship's wheelhouse
and from another strategic point on the ship.
The general alarm system is to be supplemented with a public address announcement system on ships
carrying more than 36 passengers. This means that the sound of the signal is to be transmitted via the
ship's loudspeaker (public address) system as well as the means indicated in the paragraph above. The
signal is to continue to sound until it is interrupted manually. Alternatively, if it is interrupted temporarily by
57 of 62
an announcement via the public address announcement system, it is to automatically activate again. Ships
of an overall length up to 45 metres, as well as ships of an open type, irrespective of length, are to be fitted
with the above loudspeaker announcement system in the wheelhouse. On ships of the remaining
te 's
categories the loudspeaker announcement system is to be activated from the wheelhouse as well as from
another strategic point of the ship.
Exitsevacuation
Once the maximum number of passengers has been calculated, the arrangement and the extent of every
is yd
muster station is also to be taken into account, as well as the access points leading to the embarkation
stations into the survival craft. In particular, the muster stations are to be inspected to ensure that their area
complies with the content contained under the LSA Plans section above. However, the accesses provided
(doors, corridors, stairways) leading from the muster stations into the survival craft, are to have a clear
width of 70cm and are to be sufficient for the quick and safe evacuation into the survival craft, being taken
into account 1cm of access width per person. For the inflatable life rafts which are not served by MES in
particular, the width of the embarkation opening to them (from the ship into the sea) cannot be less than
r
70cm. For every such opening an embarkation ladder is to be assigned and it is to be calculated that up to
eg lo
150 persons may be evacuated into the sea via that. The embarkation stations as well as the stowage
locations are to be sufficiently lighted by the ship's emergency source of supply as well.
Navigational equipment
The requirements of SOLAS V/19 are to be applied, depending on the date of build and tonnage. These
requirements will not apply to ships of less than 500 GT as well as to ships engaged on voyages within
R L
protected areas irrespective of tonnage, subject to the condition that these are fitted with AIS and GPS
systems.
