Potential Risk Report Marine Safety Management System Potentially dangerous situation report PDS

The Port's Marine Safety Management System endeavours to reduce the risks arising from the day-to-day operations in the Ports , the Harbours and Pilotage areas in South Wales to as low a level as reasonably practical.

In accordance with the requirements of the Port Marine Safety Code the Associated British Ports, South Wales has undertaken, in consultation with stakeholders, a Formal Safety Assessment of the hazards in each Dock, Harbour and Pilotage district and approaches and assessed the associated risks and introduced or verified control measures to minimise the risks.

To ensure the control measures remain valid, it is essential that all the Port's Stakeholders (Port Staff, PEC holders, tug Masters, Agents, berth operators, recreational users) advise the Harbour Authority of 'potential risks', which, in their opinion, could indicate a weakness in a particular control measure or risk assessment.

This is an iterative process, and will only be effective if all our stakeholders participate in it. The goal for all of us is to achieve an incident free Docks , Harbours and pilotage areas.

Please use this to report any 'potential risks' you encounter in harbour or pilotage waters.
