Preparing the outward bound pilotage planAfter berthing and before the pilot departs the ship, the opportunity should be taken to discuss the outward bound pilotage passage plan with the pilot, bearing in mind that the precise way of working within any pilotage area can vary between pilots.
ICS BRIDGE PROCE
Ships' routeing measures have been introduced in a number of coastal waters to: • reduce the risk of collision between ships in areas of high traffic densities; • keep shipping away from environmentally sensitive sea areas; • reduce the risk of grounding in shallow waters. The use of ships' routeing measures should form part of the passage plan. Ships' routeing measures can be adopted internationally by IMO. Such schemes are recommended for use by, and may be made mandatory for, all ships, certain categories of ships or ships carrying certain cargoes. Mandatory ships' routeing schemes should always be used unless the ship has compelling safety reasons for not following them. IMO routeing schemes will be shown on charts with a note of any pertinent provisions as to their use. Fuller details may be described in Sailing Directions. The IMO publications Ships' Routeing and Amendments to Ships' Routeing contain full descriptions of each scheme and any rules applying, but this publication is produced primarily for the benefit of administrations. It is not kept up to date as regularly as nautical publications, which should always be consulted for the latest information. Elements used in routeing systems include: • traffic separation scheme - a routeing measure aimed at the separation of • traffic lane - areas within defined limits in which one-way traffic flows are • separation zone or line - a means to separate traffic lanes in which ships are • roundabout - a separation point or circular zone and a circular traffic lane • inshore traffic zone - a designated sea area between the landward boundary • recommended route - a route of undefined width, for the convenience of • deep water route - a route which has been accurately surveyed for clearance • archipelagic sea lane - sea lanes designated for the continuous and • precautionary area - an area where ships must navigate with particular • area to be avoided - an area in which either navigation is particularly 4,,,/ Date: 2016-04-22; view: 1013
