Rev. 00 Page iv
1. Introduction

New security measures and procedures adopted by the International Maritime

Organization (IMO) establish an international marine security framework to enhance the
protection of ships, personnel, cargo, and ports. The initiative, called the International
Ship and of Port Facility Security Code (ISPS), responds to an increased threat of
terrorist attacks.

The new security measures and procedures apply to cargo ships of 500 tons or more
involved in international trade, passenger ships and high-speed passenger craft, mobile
offshore drilling units, and port facilities for the above ships on international voyages.
While these new security requirements are designed to combat terrorism, they can also
help to effectively protect against other threats, such as piracy and hijacking.

Terrorists pose a potential threat to ships and shipping because a ship could be used:
• To smuggle terrorists or weapons to countries to carry out an attack.
• Take control and use the ship as a weapon,
• Attack a ship directly,
• Take hostages from the ship
• Use the ship to hold a port hostage,
• Use the cargo on the ship to cause environmental or economic problems for a coastal
state, or
• Use a ship as a platform to mount a strike.

Each Ship and port facility is responsible for determining the security measures
necessary to respond to potential threats. Ship operators and crew and port authorities
and facility operators are required to conduct threat assessments, security surveys,
vulnerability assessments, and then develop security plans to mitigate unacceptable
risks. Personnel responsible for the security of Ships and ports are also required to
provide training and drills to ensure a familiarity with security plans and procedures.
These security requirements for Ships must be approved by the “Administration,” that is
responsible for ensuring the enforcement of international conventions. Port security
measures must be approved by the “Contracting Government” which is signatory to the
International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). Ships will be required to
carry an International Ship Security Certificate onboard similar to the Safety
Management Certificate, indicating they have an approved Ship Security Plan and the
crew understands their security responsibilities. The certificate and parts of the Plan are
subject to a Port State Control inspection.

The Administrations for the Contracting Governments will be responsible for developing
procedures for assessing threats and establishing the appropriate readiness conditions
or security levels. The Contracting Government will also be responsible for defining the
security measures and procedures for each of the three Security Alert Conditions:

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 1
Security Level 1, Security Level 2, and Security Level 3. The Company and Ship
Security Officers will be responsible for the development and implementation of the
Security Plan. All ship operators and port facility operators will be required to ensure
that the minimum Security Level for the appropriate readiness condition is implemented.

A company must have a Company Security Officer (CSO); each ship is required to have
a Ship Security Officer (SSO). A Ship Security Plan must be developed for each ship,
and each ship must be equipped with specific equipment. The plan must stipulate the
methods and procedures for the three security levels. Each ship is required to control
and monitor access and the activities of people and cargo, and security communications
must be readily available.

Similarly, all ports to which these security measures apply must appoint a Port Facility
Security Officer (PFSO) and prepare a Port Facility Security Plan. The plan has to be
approved by the Contracting Government responsible for the port facility. The following
information contained in the plan is confidential and shall be kept in very strict
confidence by the Company Security Officer, Master and Ship’s Security Officer:
• Identification of the restricted areas and measures for the prevention of unauthorized
access;
• Procedures for responding to security threats or breaches of security, including
provisions for maintaining critical operations of the ship or ship/port interface;
• Procedures for responding to any security instructions Contracting Governments may
give at security level 2 or 3;
• Duties of shipboard personnel assigned security responsibilities and of other
shipboard personnel on security aspects;
• Procedures to ensure the inspection, testing, calibration, and maintenance of any
security equipment provided on board, if any;
• Identification of the locations where the ship security alert system activation points are
provided; and
• Procedures, instructions and guidance on the use of the ship security alert system,
including the testing, activation, deactivation and resetting and to limit false alerts.

2. Company Policy

This Ship Security Plan contains polices and procedures to promote the security of
(insert Ship name). The plan responds to the International Maritime
Organization’s (IMO) amendments to Safety of Life at Sea Convention (SOLAS)
Chapter XI-2 and Part A of the ISPS Code (Measures to Enhance Maritime Security).

The company should use this space to address to describe procedures the company
will put in place to help the crew:
• Prevent terrorist or criminal activities happening on board or to the ship,
• Identify the potential for criminal or terrorist activities happening on board or to the
ship,
• Deter terrorist or criminal activities, and
• React when terrorist or criminal activities are encountered.

The Master has the overriding authority and responsibility to make decisions regarding
the security of the ship and to request the assistance of the Company or of any
Contracting Government as may be necessary. If, in the professional judgement of the
Master, a conflict between any safety and security requirements applicable to the ship
arises during its operations, the Master shall give effect to those requirements
necessary to maintain the safety of the ship. In such cases, the Master may implement
temporary security measures and shall forthwith inform the Administration and, if
appropriate, the Contracting Government in whose port the ship is operating or intends
to enter. Any such temporary measures under this regulation shall, to the highest
possible degree, be commensurate with the prevailing security level. When such cases
are identified, the Owner will ensure that such conflicts are resolved to the satisfaction
of the Administration and that the possibility of recurrence is minimized.

All crewmembers shall review the plan’s contents, supporting bills, and the security
instructions developed to implement this plan. Maintaining ship security is an ongoing

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 3
task. As potential new threats are uncovered, additional security measures and
procedures might need to be implemented.

Only the Company Security Officer (CSO) is authorized to release security information
to the Master, Ship Security Officer (SSO), and Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO).
Unless approved by the Master or SSO, internal and external communications from the
ship regarding security measures, threat analyses, intelligence information, and planned
responses are not to be discussed with anyone on shore or with other members of the
crew.

The Company Security Officer may delegate duties to be performed by the Ship
Security Officer. As required by the IMO, the name of the person or organization who
appoints the members of the crew or other persons employed or engaged on board the
ship in any capacity on the business of the ship is: .

Their address and contact information will be found in Appendix G.

All ship personnel are to:
• Assist the Ship Security Officer (SSO) and report security violations.
• Assist the SSO with the implementation of ship security bills and reporting
discrepancies in those bills.

The company’s use of force policy is attached as Appendix E.

6. Security Plan Documentation and Overview

6.1 Introduction

Each ship shall carry on board a Ship Security Plan (SSP) approved by the
Administration. The plan must be developed based on guidance provided by the
International Maritime Organization (IMO). The Company Security Officer is responsible
for preparing the Ship Security Plan (SSP). Each ship’s plan contents should vary
depending on the type of ship and the ship’s operating area.

The plan must be written in the working language or languages of the ship. If the
language or languages used is not English, French, or Spanish, a translation into one of
these languages must be included.

The Ship Security Plan may be combined with the safety management system. The
Company and the Administration must approve the plan. Changes to the plan which
must be approved by the Administration include:
 Equipment Changes,
 Change in the identification of:
o layers of protection,
o access points and
o unauthorized access areas
 Change of Ship contact information,
 Change of Company Contact Information, and
 Changes in security procedures on board.

The Plan may be kept in an electronic form and must be protected from unauthorized
access or disclosure.

A Ship Security Plan is not generally subject to inspection by officers authorized from
Contracting Government. But if there are grounds for believing the ship is in violation of
the requirements, access to the plan is authorized for the purpose of verifying the ship
security requirements have been met and, if necessary, to require appropriate
corrective actions.

To prepare a Ship Security Plan, it is necessary to first conduct a Ship Security survey,
which examines existing physical security measure, procedures, and operations. A
vulnerability assessment is then completed to determine potential gaps or weaknesses
in security. These Sections of the plan are to be confidential and should be
separately maintained in a locked cabinet.

The Ship Security Plan also contains specific security policies and procedures, which
are detailed in subsequent sections.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 11
6.2 Security Organizational Structure

The Master is responsible for the safety and security of the crew, passengers, and
cargo. The development of general security policies and procedures is the responsibility
of the Company Security Officer. Unless the Master is the Ship’s Security Officer, the
Ship Security Officer shall report to the Master and is responsible for implementing,
maintaining, and supervising the Ship Security Plan.

Security Organization

The point of contact for the Ship Security Plan on board the ship is: and for the
Company Ashore is . (This information is provided so that it can be published
and assist in the communication of security matters).

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 12
6.3 Audit, Review & Reporting

The Ship Security Plan to be reviewed by the Company Security Officer to ensure its
continued effectiveness:

 Annually,
 After lessons learned from
o Audits,
o Drills,
o Exercises, and
o Security Incidents.
 After an assessment or other report of possible breaches of security or security
concerns the Ship Security Officer will modify the Plan and report the changes
made and the reasons for these changes to the Company Security Officer.

The Ship Security Officer will immediately report to the Company Security Officer when
the effectiveness of security equipment is compromised due to equipment failure or
malfunction and will implement operational measures to compensate for the loss of
equipment. The Company Security Officer will seek temporary approval from the
Administration for alternatives or equivalencies are required by SOLAS.

6.4 Records

The below records of activities shall be kept on board for at least two years (minimum
period specified by the Administration).
 Training,
 Drills,
 Exercises,
 Security Incidents,
 Reports of security breaches,
 Changes in security levels,
 Maintenance, calibration and testing of security equipment,
 Communications relating to the ship’s security (such as specific threats to the
ship),
 Internal audits and review of security activities, and
 Periodic review of the security assessment and plan,
 Implementation of any amendments to the plan,
 Security threats, and
 Declaration(s) of security.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 13
Any records required by this part must be protected from unauthorized access or
disclosure. Records may be kept in electronic format and must be protected from
unauthorized deletion, destruction or amendment.

Records must be kept in the working language(s) of the ship and include translation into
English.

6.5 Plan Security

This plan contains information that should not be public knowledge and the plan shall be
retained in a secure location. Crewmen should be aware of the existence of plan and
their roles in the security of the ship. The Master, Ship Security Officer and Company
Security Officer should be the only persons with access to the entire plan. Copies of the
plans shall be strictly controlled. Only the Company Security Officer and the Ship
Security Officer need retain copies of the Ship Security Plan. Surveyors, auditors from
the Recognized Organization, inspectors form the flag state, port authorities, port state
inspectors and coastal state authorities can be provided the opportunity to examine the
plan to make sure that it meets the intent of the regulations, however no additional
copies need be provided.

7. Communication and Coordination

7.1 Introduction

Ship security is dependent upon the interaction and communication between all of the
parties concerned. The crew, the ship operators, the port authorities, contracting
governments, local law enforcement, and emergency response personnel need to
communicate with each other as needed to provide an adequate response to the posted
security level and to ensure that the actions taken in the event of an incident are
adequate.

The Company when developing the plan will use the contacts identified in Appendix A
or their own contacts developed over years of service to complete the ship’s Contact
Information Sheet found in Appendix F and G. This list will be updated by the Company
Security Officer with the help of the Ship Security Officer for each port and for each
voyage.

7.2 Port

The Port, Coastal State Authorities, and local law enforcement must assist the
Company and Ship Security Officers, with the appropriate contact information so the
Company Security Officer can receive adequate information to determine the
appropriate security level, to ensure shore side security and provide emergency
response contact information in the event of an incident.

7.3 Water Front Facility

It is the responsibility of the Company Security Officer (the SSO can act on behalf of the
CSO) to ensure a Facility Security Assessment is accurate and that facility security
personnel are providing the protection required. The Declaration found in Appendix B
will be used to conduct the assessment by the Ship Security Officer and the Facility
Security Officer and record any problems and list how those problems will be
addressed. If the facility security is not adequate the Ship Security Officer will have to
take additional steps to safeguard the ship. The SSO shall also report any negative
findings to the Company Security Officer who will in turn report to the Port Authorities
and the Flag State regarding the problems encountered.

7.4 Law Enforcement

The Port Authorities should provide the Ship Security Officer with a list of valid local law
enforcement points of contact. The list should identify the law enforcement officers who

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 15
are authorized to board the ship while in the port. The Ship Security Officer will comply
with all lawful requests or recommendations made by these law enforcement officials.

7.5 Company, the CSO and the SSO

The Company is responsible for making sure the Company Security Officer and the
Ship Security Officer have communicated with Coast State and Port Authorities to
develop the list of contacts needed to establish a plan that works.

7.6 Radio Procedures

A suitably qualified Radio Operator should be on duty at all times when ships are in, or
approaching areas where attacks occur or may occur. One of the qualified radio
operators other than the Master shall be called upon to be the Radio Operator. Since
the introduction of GMDSS, the navigation officer on watch also carries the duty of
Radio Operator. In addition to the Navigating Officer, it is advisable to have a duly
qualified dedicated radio operator perform the Radio Watch, to ensure the ship’s bridge
is adequately manned when transiting potentially hazardous waters.

Prior to entering areas where attacks have occurred or where intelligence indicates
attacks may occur, Radio Operators should practice and perfect pertinent radio
operational procedures and ensure all transmitters, including satellite earth stations are
fully operational and available for immediate use on distress and security frequencies.
Where an INMARSAT ship earth station is provided it is appropriate to draft and store
“standard messages” for ready use in an emergency. Masters should ensure that all
procedures to generate a distress alert on any communication equipment are clearly
marked on, or near, the equipment and all appropriate crewmembers briefed on their
operation.

A special Code for piracy/armed robbery/attack is available for use on digital selective
calling (DSC) equipment. DSC equipment shall be modified to incorporate this facility.
The Company is responsible for making sure the Company Security Officer and the
Ship Security Officer have communicated with Coast State and Port Authorities to
develop the list of contacts needed to establish a plan that works. The Master and all
Radio Operators should be aware that potential attackers might be monitoring ship to
shore communications and using intercepted information to select targets. When
transmitting information regarding cargo, valuables and the status of ship’s stores,
caution is advised.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 16
7.7 Radio Watch keeping

A constant radio watch shall be maintained with appropriate naval or shore side
authorities in areas where attacks have occurred or intelligence indicated attacks are
imminent on all distress and safety frequencies: VHF Channel 16 and 2182 kHz.

The Master (or Security Officer as directed by the Master) shall ensure that all Maritime
Safety Information Broadcasts are monitored. It is anticipated that INMARSAT’s
enhanced group calling will normally be used for such broadcasts using the
SafetyNET(SM) service.

7.8 Communication in Response to Threats

The master or senior officer available shall make sure that the Cognizant Rescue
Coordination Center is contacted to report: Suspicious movements which may result in
imminent attack, and Piracy, Armed Robbery or Terrorist attacks using the form found in
Appendix C. In addition, if the Master believes the other ship’s movement constitutes a
direct threat to his ship or a danger to navigation in general, he shall consider sending
an “All Stations (CQ) “danger message” as well as advising the appropriate RCC. A
danger message should be transmitted in plain language on a VHF working frequency
following an announcement on VHF Channel 16 and or transmission of a DSC Call on
VHF Channel 70 using the “safety” priority. All such messages shall be preceded by the
safety signal (SECURITE).

When the Master has concluded that the safety of the ship is threatened, he shall:
1. Activate the Security Alert, and
2. Notify the cognizant Rescue Coordination Center and if considered appropriate
authorize a broadcast of an “All Stations” “Urgency Message” on VHF Channel 16,
2182 kHz or any other radio communications he considers appropriate (e.g.
INMARSAT). Such messages shall be preceded by the appropriate Urgency Signal
(PAN PAN) and or a DSC call on VHF Channel 70 and /or 2187.5 kHz.

When an attack has occurred and in the opinion the crew and ship are in grave danger
requiring immediate assistance, the Master shall authorize the broadcast of a “Distress”
message be preceded by the appropriate Distress alerts (Mayday, SOS, DSC, etc..)
using the radio equipment most appropriate for the area taking into account the GMDSS
Designation. The appropriate RCC shall acknowledge receipt of the message and
attempt to establish communications.
Masters shall bear in mind that the distress signal is provided for use in cases of
imminent danger and it shall not be used for less urgent purposes.

8. Ship Security Assessment (Survey)

8.1 Survey Process

The Ship Security Survey is the first step to developing a Ship Security Assessment. It
is the responsibility of the Company Security Officer (the SSO can act on behalf of the
CSO) to ensure a Ship Security Assessment is carried out by competent persons with
skills to evaluate the security of a ship. The survey identifies and evaluates the
necessary security measures to counter potential threats to the ship at port, at anchor,
and at sea. An assessment must be documented and a copy retained by the Company.
The assessment must include an on-scene security survey with, at least, the following
elements:

 Identify the existing security measures, procedures, and operations.

 Identify and evaluate the key shipboard operations that are important to protect.
 Identify the possible threats to the key shipboard operations and the likelihood of
their occurrence, in order to establish and prioritize security measures.
 Identify security weaknesses, including human factors in the infrastructure,
policies, and procedures. (Human factors in the infrastructure would include
nationality of the ship’s owners, operators and the crew.)

The Company Security Officer or a Contacted Surveyor working under the direction of
the Company Security Officer shall develop the Security Assessment for the
(insert name of the ship) in accordance with Guide 4.

As indicated the assessment can reveal weakness in the ships security posture and
therefore shall be treated as a controlled document and separately maintained.

8.2 Security Survey is Confidential

The Master and Security officer should be the only persons on board with knowledge of
the contents of this document and where it is maintained.
The Security assessment survey is a confidential document and will be available
as stipulated by the Master in accordance with company policy. It will be located
separate from the remainder of the plan by the Company and Ship Security
officers.

9. Establishing Security Levels

9.1 Introduction

The Master or the SSO is responsible for declaring the Ship Security Level. Security
Levels or readiness conditions are procedures to respond to security threats or
breaches of security, including provisions for maintaining critical operations of the ship
or ship/port interface. Normal operating conditions are Security Level 1. At this
readiness condition, the following actions are required for all ships:

 Ensure the performance of all ship security duties.

 Monitor access to the ship.
 Monitor the deck areas and areas surrounding the ship.
 Monitor the embarkation of persons and their carry-on items.
 Supervise the handling of cargo and ship’s stores.
 Ensure that port-specific security communication is readily available.

As the threat alters, the security level should be modified. The highest security level, as
a general policy, may include arming ship personnel. Three Security Levels, or Security
Readiness Conditions (SRC), have been established to respond to potential threats:

Security Level 1: Low Threat Normal operating conditions.

Security Level 2: Medium Threat Heightened threat due to an announcement or

intelligence of a non-specific (perceived) threat.

Security Level 3: High Threat Highest threat level in response to an attack or official
information of a specific threat.

It is important that Security Levels be clearly defined for all personnel. Training should
be conducted at all readiness conditions to ensure rapid response to changing threats.
When entering a port, a ship is required to act upon the security level set by the
Contracting Government.
A ship, Company or Administration may choose a higher security level than
recommended by the Port Facility Security Officer. The SSO and Port Facility Security
Officer are required to liaise and coordinate appropriate actions.

At Security Levels 2 and 3, a ship is required to acknowledge receipt of the designated

authority’s advice on a change in the security level. The SSO shall confirm to the Port
Facility Security Officer the Ship’s Security Level and report any difficulties in
implementation.

9.7 Determining Security Level at Sea

The threat level determines the Security Level or readiness condition of the Ship. During
normal operating conditions at sea and in port, the readiness condition is Security Level
1.

At sea, when the Ship Security Officer determines a non-specific threat exists, the
readiness condition should be elevated to Security Level 2 (See Threat Assessment
Guide 2 to help determine and define potential threats).

At sea, the readiness condition is increased to Security Level 3 when it is determined

there is sufficient specific intelligence about a pending attack or threat in a specific area.

10. Security Actions:

10.1 Piracy and Armed Attacks:

10.1.1 Background

Most piracy attacks occur at port. At sea, ships are most vulnerable to attack while
sailing near land and passing through narrow channels where maneuverability is limited.

Pirates might steal any valuable item on a ship or even the ship itself. Carrying large
sums of money on board should be avoided if possible. If pirates learn about such
funds, it may invite an attack. Pirates have been known to monitor communications, so
discussing information about a ship’s cargo or valuables should be avoided.
Crewmembers going ashore should also be advised to not discuss details about a
Ship’s cargo or itinerary.

Smaller ships and ships with fewer crewmembers are more vulnerable to attack. To
compensate, ship owners may want to consider implementing additional security
measures and/or installing appropriate surveillance and detection equipment, such as
closed circuit surveillance systems, which may be monitored from a central location.

Early detection provides an opportunity to sound alarms, implement security

procedures, contact authorities for assistance, illuminate a suspect craft, and take
evasive maneuvers. Maintaining vigilance and enhancing security measures and
procedures are the best deterrence to avoid an attack.

Pirates may feign distress as a trick to get close to a Ship. As a consequence, any ship
– including junks, fishing boats, pleasure boats, and dhows – should be considered as a
potential threat.
If a Master determines it is necessary to invite people onboard, only one person should
be transferred at a time. The individual should be carefully searched. Security should be
at a high level of alert with lookouts maintained on all sides of the ship.

Following are additional security guidelines for consideration:

 Brief crewmembers on the risks of being attacked by pirates or armed bandits.

 Secure the bridge, engine room, steering gear compartments, officers’ cabins,
and crew accommodations.
 Carefully plan any response to an apparent attack and ensure the crew is
appropriately trained.
 If possible, avoid high-risk areas and bottlenecks.
 Consider delaying ship arrival if there is a high threat from piracy at port and if a
berth is not immediately available to minimize the Ship’s vulnerability while in
queue.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 24
10.1.2 Piracy Security Measures in Port

 Minimize access points preferably to a single controlled gangway or ship’s side

companion way.
 Keep emergency ladders clear of the water; raise and stow pilot ladders
immediately after use.
 Provide two security officers at access points if a threat warrants the response.
 Establish perimeter security measures, such as weather deck and ship side
lighting, deck and jetty patrols, and secure rat guards on mooring lines.
 Search all deliveries when possible; conduct frequent, random, and overt
searches if all materials cannot be examined.
 Search all visitors and escort them while on board.
 Keep small craft in the vicinity under constant surveillance.
 Carefully control documents containing information about the cargo or ship’s
itinerary.
 Conduct a search of the ship before sailing and secure all doors and other
access points.

10.1.3 Security Measures at Sea

When approaching or sailing through high-risk areas:

 Augment bridge watches and lookouts.

 Establish additional watches on the stern and where there are visual and radar
“blind spots.”
 Equip watches with low-light binoculars and/or night-vision goggles.
 When monitoring nearby ships, give additional attention to small craft matching
the speed of the ship or traveling parallel to the ship.
 Ensure someone responsible for communications remains on duty.
 Maintain radio communications with appropriate shore and naval authorities.
 If a suspicious ship at sea approaches in a threatening manner:
o Increase speed and alter course if safe to do so.
o Do not allow the ship to come alongside; do not respond to messages by
radio, light, or hailing.
o Note details of the threatening ship and video or photograph the ship if
possible.
o At night, switch off the weather deck lighting; direct searchlights at the
approaching ship.
o Keep personnel clear of the weather deck.

Rev. 00 Page 25
10.1.4 If Hijacked

During a hijacking, generally the more time that passes without incident, the better:

 Remain calm and direct others to do the same; do not resist armed pirates
unless there is a clear life-threatening situation.
 Ensure the safety of the ship and personnel according to maritime practice.
 Initiate Security Alarm, if possible,
 Broadcast a distress message, if possible.
 Offer reasonable cooperation; try to establish a reasonable rapport.
 Try to identify the number of attackers.
 Attempt to increase the number of egress points.
 Attempt to determine the demands of the hijackers, as well as potential
deadlines.
 Use secure communications if available for negotiators to talk with the hijackers.
 The Master and crew should not attempt to negotiate with the hijackers unless
directed by authorities.

Following an attack, the International Maritime Organization recommends sending a

report to the Rescue Coordination Center (RCC). Provide in the report information on
the identity and location of the ship, any injuries or damage, and descriptions of the
attackers. See MSC/Circ.597 for additional reporting recommendations.

10.2. Terrorism

The face of terrorism has changed over time. Attacks in the past were designed to
primarily attract publicity, not kill a lot of people. In 1985, four terrorists hijacked the
Achille Lauro, an Italian cruise ship with more than 400 passengers. The event attracted
worldwide attention. One person was killed before the terrorists surrendered after a two-
day standoff.

Terrorist attacks are becoming increasingly more lethal. In 1998, suicide truck bombs
detonated outside the U.S. Embassy in Dar es Salaam, capital of Tanzania, killing 11
people, and the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi, killing 213 and injuring thousands.

In October 2000, terrorists tied to al Qaeda mounted a suicide bombing against the USS
Cole in the Yemeni port of Aden, killing 17 sailors.

In June 2001, seven terrorists were arrested for plotting to attack American and British
ships in the Strait of Gibraltar with explosive-packed boats.

On October 6, 2002, terrorists linked to al Qaeda attacked a French oil tanker in the
Gulf of Aden causing the release of 50,000 barrels of oil.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 26
The attack on the World Trade Center (WTC) represents the first mass destruction
terrorism strike. Officials fear it may not be long before a terrorist group mounts an
attack using chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear materials (weapons of mass
destruction).
Prior to September 11, 2001, maritime security measures to counter terrorism focused
on hijacking and bombing threats. As a result of the WTC attack, security measures are
being implemented worldwide.

Authorities are concerned a ship might be turned into a weapon not unlike the jetliners
that were crashed into the WTC. A ship could also be used to smuggle a weapon of
mass destruction to a port, then detonated.

A suspected member of the al Qaeda terrorism network attempted to illegally enter

Canada using a container that had been modified with a bed, battery-powered heater,
toilet, and enough water for the three-week voyage to Toronto.

Terrorists may attempt to gain access to a ship by infiltration or assault. In preparation

for an attack involving the maritime industry, terrorists are likely to conduct surveillance
of potential targets.

18. Ship/Waterfront Facility Interface:

18.1 Introduction

The IMO security measures require all ports involved in international trade to appoint a
Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO) and prepare a Port Facility Security Plan. The
Contracting Government responsible for the port facility must approve the plan.

The port is responsible for determining the measures necessary to respond to potential
threats.

The port is also required to provide training and drills to ensure the familiarity with
security plans and procedures.

The Contracting Government must assess potential threats and vulnerabilities to ports
and determine the level of risk. The Contracting Government is responsible for setting
the appropriate security level. All ports must maintain at least a Security Level 1
readiness condition.
The below survey provides information to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the
security systems and procedures at a port facility after arrival. If security measures are
found to be inadequate, the Ship Security Officer can increase Ship security measures
to compensate for port deficiencies.

18.2 Port Security Survey for Ship’s Security Officer

Yes No: The port facility has conducted a security assessment?

If yes, when? __________________________________________
The following are potential vulnerabilities in security measures and procedures at port
facilities:
Yes No: Inspection, control, and monitoring systems and procedures?
Yes No: Identification documents?
Yes No: Access control systems and procedures?
Yes No: Perimeter security measures (fencing, etc.)?
Yes No: Lighting?
Yes No: Stand-by equipment that assures continuity of essential services?
Yes No: Sufficient personnel to respond to an emergency?
Yes No: Communications?
Yes No: Have authorities implemented new security systems and procedures to
mitigate any security weaknesses listed above?

If yes, explain:
______________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________

Deficiencies in the Port Facility Security should be reported to the Company Security
Officer and the Flag Administration.

Serious deficiencies should be reported by the quickest means possible: telephone, fax
or E-Mail.

18.3 Port Communication contingencies in emergency situations:

The Port Communication Contingency in Emergency situations should be confirmed

with the Port Security Personnel upon arrival. The Contact information should be posted
in a conspicuous location where the watch standers can see it and make use of it while
in port.

If time permits, the Ship Security Office should try to test the validity of the contact
information provided and record and report any problems.

18.4 Interfacing Procedures:

When the ship intends to enter a port, the CSO, SSO and the relevant PFSO have to
exchange information on the interfacing requirements during ship’s visit and operations.
Such information should include:
1. The security level on which port facility and ship operate at the time of entering
port.
2. Relevant measures which might have an influence in ship’s operations.
3. The type, the duration and the sensitivity of ship-port operations during ship’s
visit (cargo handling, stores-spares delivery, embarkation of repair teams, visitors
etc.).
4. Any additional security measures needed for these operations.

The CSO, SSO and the PFSO should be in close cooperation and should exchange
information, on security issues, as needed.
The Master should register relevant information of visiting ports and should maintain the
log at least for a year.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 46
18.5 Differing Security Levels:

The ship may enter a port at a higher security level than the port facility, but never at a
lower one. In this case, the CSO, SSO and the PFSO should communicate to establish
relevant security measures to rectify such difference. These measures might include the
completion and signature of a DoS (Declaration of Security).

18.6 Declaration of Security (DoS):

A Declaration of Security (DoS) should be completed when the Contracting Government

of the port facility or an interfacing vessel, deems it necessary or when the ship deems it
necessary. The DoS shall address the security requirements that could be shared
between a port facility (or an interfacing ship) and the ship and shall state the
responsibility for each.

A DoS will be requested at higher security levels:

1. when the ship has a higher security level than the port facility, or another ship
with which it interfaces;
2. for ship/port interface or ship to ship activities that pose a higher risk to persons,
property or the environment for reasons specific to that ship, including her cargo
or passengers or the circumstances at the port facility or a combination of these
factors.

In addition to the above, when the ship carries dangerous cargo and it operates at
security level 2 or security level 3 the SSO, before any ship-to-ship or ship-to-facility
interface and prior to any transfer of cargo, must sign a DoS with the respective
Master/SSO or PFSO.

In the case where the ship or her Flag State, requests completion of a DoS, the Port
Facility Security Officer (PFSO) or Ship Security Officer (SSO)/ Master of the interfacing
vessel, should acknowledge the request and discuss appropriate security measures.

A PFSO may also initiate a DoS prior to ship/port interfaces that are identified in the
approved PFSA as being of particular concern. Examples may include the embarking or
disembarking passengers, and the transfer, loading or unloading of dangerous goods or
hazardous substances. The PFSA may also identify facilities at or near highly populated
areas or economically significant operations that warrant a DoS.

The main purpose of a DoS is to ensure agreement is reached between the ship and
the –Port facility or the interfacing vessel, as to the respective security measures each
will undertake in accordance with the provisions of their respective approved security
plans.

The agreed DoS should be signed and dated by both the port facility and the ship, as
applicable, should include its duration, the relevant security level, or levels and the

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 47
contact points. A change in the security level may require that a new or revised DoS be
completed.
The DoS should be completed in a language common to both the port facility and the
ship and/or in English.

A DoS form is included in the Appendix B to this Plan. The same form, with required
modifications, could be used between ship and port facility or between ship and another
interfacing vessel.

Completed / signed DOS should be kept on board for at least two years, unless
otherwise specified by the Flag Administration.

18.7 Interfacing with a Port or a Port Facility or a ship whose States are not
Contracting Governments, or are not required to comply with Ch.XI-2 and
part of the ISPS code:

In this case the following procedures will be followed:

1. The ship will record the situation in ship’s log book
2. The CSO should inform the Flag administration accordingly and ask for any
specific instruction
3. The ship will follow onboard the security measures corresponding to the security
level set by the Flag Administration
4. According to the situation and the risks in place, extra security measures should
be taken onboard as directed by the Flag, the CSO or by the Master
5. Contact the local port authority or the Master of the interfacing ship and request
any specific measures to be taken from their behalf
6. Full records of all measures, actions and events should be kept

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 48
19. Training and Drills:

A properly trained crew is a strong deterrent to prevent attacks and other threats. A
continuous and thorough training program should support measures to safeguard the
security of the ship, crew, and cargo. It is important that all ship and shipboard
personnel understand their responsibilities for ship security and shall have sufficient
knowledge and ability to perform their assigned duties.

All crewmen will receive familiarization training when they report on board regarding
their specific security duties.

To ensure that shipboard personnel are proficient in all assigned security duties at all
security levels and to identify any security-related deficiencies which need to be
addressed, drills shall be conducted at least once every three months. In addition, in
cases where more than 25% of the ship’s personnel has been changed, at any one
time, with personnel that has not previously participated in any drill on that ship within
the last three months, a drill shall be conducted within one week of the change. The
drills shall test individual elements of this Plan. This includes:
 Inspection, control, and monitoring duties required by pertinent regulations,
policies, and laws.
 Detection and identification of weapons and other dangerous substances and
devices.
 Operation, calibration, underway maintenance, and testing of security equipment;
physical search methods of persons, baggage, cargo, and ship stores.
 Emergency procedures.
 Recognition of characteristics and behavioral patterns of persons who are likely
to threaten the security of the ship.
 Techniques that foster calming behavior.
 Techniques used by others to circumvent protective measures.
 Security-related communications.
If the ship is at a facility, which is scheduled for a drill, the ship may participate in same
drill.

Crews shall also be involved in an exercise involving the Company Security Officer at
least once a year, with no more than 18 months between the exercises. These
exercises shall test communications, co-ordination, resource availability and response.
These exercises may be:
 full-scale or live;
 tabletop simulation or seminar;
 combined with other appropriate exercises; or
 a combination of above elements.

20. Contingency Plans and Standard Operating Procedures
(SOP’s):

20.1 Bomb Threats and Hoaxes

Few actual bombings or attempted bombings of commercial ships have occurred in the
past 25 years. The explosion that caused damage to the oil tanker Limburg in the Gulf
of Aden, however is suspected of being an act of sabotage, indicating a new trend, and
there have been numerous bomb threats against ships over the years. Following are
general guidelines for responding to a potential bomb on a ship:
 The person receiving a bomb threat should immediately contact the Master, Ship
Security Officer, or Watch Officer.
 Ship officers should notify the home office and appropriate authorities.

If the threat is real, the caller may have specific knowledge about the location of the
bomb. If the threat is a hoax, the caller is probably seeking to disrupt normal operations.

20.1.1 Telephone Bomb Threat Procedures

 Remain calm.
 If possible, get more than one person to listen to the call.
 Keep the caller on the line as long as possible.
 Ask the caller to repeat the message and record every word spoken by the caller.
 Listen for voices or speech peculiarities and/or accents.
 Be alert for words or phrases that may be repeated.
 Try to distinguish background noises that might help identify or locate the caller.
 Record the conversation if possible.
 Notify the SSO immediately. If available, provide the location of the bomb and the
threatened time of detonation.

Do not hang-up the phone if the call is made from the ship's internal telephone system.

CONFIDENTIAL – DO NOT DISTRIBUTE Ship Security Plan – m/v

Rev. 00 Page 50
20.1.2 Bomb Search Guidelines

The following guidelines outline the steps that should be taken if a specific bomb threat
has been made or evidence supports the possibility that a bomb may have been placed
aboard a ship:
 Request assistance from qualified explosives experts and law enforcement.,
 Consider evacuating personnel
 A search should be organized based on a search plan that is specific to each
ship, which may direct the crew to use specific external assistance..
 Searchers should be familiar with the search areas so they can identify new or
unusual items.
 Officers and management should carefully supervise the search.
 Consideration should be given to search parties working in pairs, with one person
searching “high” and the other one searching “low.”
 Searchers should be able to identify a variety of bombs or incendiary devices.
 Areas that have been searched should be appropriately marked..41
 A central point of contact should be established to coordinate information.
 Searchers should have communication devices so they can alert officers and
management.
 Searchers should be trained so they know what to do if a bomb is discovered.
 If a bomb is located, the search should continue in case another device is
present.

20.2 Terrorist Hijacking

A hijacking is the forcible seizure of a ship by terrorists or pirates. The Achille Lauro
incident is an example of a terrorist hijacking. As a general rule, during a hijacking, the
more time that passes without incident, the better. Following are general guidelines in
the event of a hijacking:

 Remain calm and direct crewmembers and passengers to do the same; do not
resist armed terrorists or pirates unless there is a clear life-threatening situation.
 Broadcast a distress message, if possible.
 The master and crew should not attempt to negotiate with the attackers unless
directed.
 Offer reasonable cooperation; try to establish a basic rapport.
 Try to identify the number of terrorists or criminals.
 Attempt to increase the number of access points.
 Attempt to determine the hijackers’ demands and potential deadlines.
 Use secure communications if available for all discussions with the hijackers.

If authorities attempt to regain control of a ship through force, personnel should comply
with all commands by military forces. During and after a hijacking, only authorized
crewmembers should talk with the media, unless otherwise instructed.

Rev. 00 Page 51
20.2.1 Hijacking Security Measures

 Minimize access points, if possible, to a single controlled gangway or shipside

companion way.
 Keep emergency ladders clear of the water; raise pilot ladders immediately after
use.
 Provide two security officers at access points if a threat warrants the response.
 Establish perimeter security measures, such as upper deck and Ship side
lighting, deck and jetty patrols, and secure rat guards on mooring lines.
 Search all deliveries when possible; conduct frequent, random, and overt
searches if all materials cannot be examined.
 Search all visitors and escort them while on board.
 Keep small craft in the vicinity under constant surveillance.

Rev. 00 Page 52
21. Maintenance of Equipment:

The Company Security Officer shall develop a plan for maintenance, calibration and
testing of security equipment of security related equipment based upon the ship design,
structure and equipment available this section of the plan should:

 Identify the Security related Equipment,

 Describe intervals between inspection or examination of specific equipment,
 Define who will conduct the maintenance (crewmen or an outside contractor),
and
 Describe communications relating to the availability of equipment due to failure or
maintenance.
