ISO 14001 Environmental Management System - Maritime Do your ships take oil bunkers, use fuel oil for power, load, carry and discharge ballast, dispose of garbage and hatch washings at sea? Do your ships operate in SECA and ECA? Do you need Environmental Accreditation? If one of the answers is 'YES' then perhaps you need ISO 14001! ISO 14001 is the Environmental Management System used ashore and onboard ships. KNIGHTSMART (UK) LIMITED provides consultancy in establishing ISO 14001 in the maritime industry. The environmental management system identifies the Company's environmental actions and activities in the office and onboard the ship. For the maritime industry much of the legislation (as prescribed by national legislation) on ship's environmental aspects is covered by the major IMO and associated conventions, the shorebased offices must comply with their national laws. In addition industry and good work practices must be taken into account. Undertaking the implementation of ISO 14001 provides a company with an auditable measurement of its environmental activities, records and continual improvement. On average, it takes about 3 months to establish a company's ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and have it ready for auditing by a Registered Organisation.
