The Competent Authority(ies) may suspend the DASR, or require
corrective action by the Ship Recycling Facility, if it has information
demonstrating that the Ship Recycling Facility no longer satisfies
the terms and conditions of the DASR. The Competent Authority(ies)
may suspend the DASR temporarily or indefinitely, depending on the
Ship Recycling Facility's subsequent level of compliance. During any
period of suspension, the Ship Recycling Facility is not authorized
to conduct recycling activities, except insofar as the Competent Authority(ies)
has specified that the Ship Recycling Facility should continue with
certain activities that do not negatively affect the protection of
human health or the environment.
The Competent Authority(ies) should suspend the DASR in
cases where site inspections, conducted as part of the audit, are
restricted by the Ship Recycling Facility without justification.
