transport of dangerous goods and risk management - Kirilo Savić

TRANSPORT OF DANGEROUS GOODS AND RISK MANAGEMENT 36the management of the recycled raw materials and by-products of the technological process of theprocessing vessel and port terminal waste matters as well as shipwreck waste;the definition of the locations of the terminals for providing new services (ship fuel supply and wasteacceptance);the solution of an urgent ecological problem on national and international waterways of the Republic ofSerbia;integrated management of all the activities relating to acceptance, transport and treatment of ship waste andwaste waters, as well as the steps in emergency situations;the establishment of coordination between all the interested entities (subjects) responsible for resolving thementioned problem (from ship transporters to government institutions and the local community);water preservationpeople protection and the environment conservation in the impact area of water traffic on the statedwaterways;the increased level of navigation safety and vessel safety;the completion of the existing national RIS and the development of computer-literate society;In addition, conditions for the integration of the above mentioned information system into the EU informationsystem will be created as well as for the use of their databases and information on international transporters andvessels, for the service users on the waterway Corridor VII.CONCLUSIONDuring the implementation of the technological development project, an integrated model for monitoring andcontrol of waste material vessel, possible accident on the waterway and waste substances transport to the treatmentsite or their disposal in real time and space, was developed. The development of the model is based on theobjectives of CEFIC Association, known as 3K (quality, quantity, continuity (of services)).This model creates conditions for the integration of water traffic into logistic system networks, with the aim ofcreating a unique, functional, logistical service network at a national and regional level (according to SEETOprinciples for traffic monitoring). The model would make possible the improvement and upgrading of the existingRIS, that is, the involvement of services of the local communities and economic entities in the ship waste materialmanagement system.The findings of TR 21037 project, also, offer concrete steps for the reduction of the level of contamination in caseof unintentional, accidental outflow of liquid, hazardous and waste substances, in the form of the attachment of asensor to the outer side of a ship for a prompt identification of the leaking hazardous matters and automatic andelectronic registration of the accident/emergency in the ship’s control room. It is proposed to install the stations withearly warning accident sensors 22 to the National control center for emergency situations in the field of water trafficat the sites marked as the riskiest on the waterways and with the largest number of emergencies in water traffic.Since it takes a lot of time and effort to introduce the integrated system at the national level, the authors of thispaper propose the establishment of the information system for early detection and prompt notification of a riveraccident, which was tested during the mentioned research, as a pilot – information subsystem for the managementof emergency situations with this type of transport, at a relatively short period of time.Bearing in mind that the significant part of the research findings were dedicated to the development of aninformation system for risk management when transporting ship’s hazardous waste, from the acceptance terminalon the river to final destinations for their further treatment or disposal all over Serbia (by road or by rail), the nextstep would be dedicated to the establishment of information system in the two mentioned types of transport, thussolving the problem of risk management in the traffic sector, as one of the most important sources of accidental, thatis, technical and toxicological accidents in the country.
