8.4 Amendment

 The Competent Authority(ies) may amend the DASR as appropriate. The amendment procedure may be initiated by the Competent Authority(ies) or the Ship Recycling Facility. The Competent Authority(ies) may require a site inspection to verify compliance with the Convention before it amends the DASR. The Ship Recycling Facility should provide the Competent Authority(ies) with appropriate documentation and updates to the SRFP.

 Situations which may necessitate amendment of the DASR include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • .1 the Ship Recycling Facility applies for the DASR amendment in order to widen the scope of authorization; for example, after having invested in the Facility and added new capabilities which should be reflected in the DASR;

  • .2 the DASR amendment is triggered by compelling needs on the part of Competent Authority(ies); for example, when new domestic regulations are put into effect;

  • .3 the DASR amendment is triggered by investigations conducted by the Competent Authority(ies) following accidents;

  • .4 the DASR amendment is triggered by a deviation of practice at the Ship Recycling Facility from the SRFP, which thereby affect the contents of the DASR; and

  • .5 the DASR amendment is triggered by a change in the hazardous materials which the Ship Recycling Facility can remove, store and process.
