However, the following considerations should be taken intoaccount:• Ballast should not be loaded if it may cause the ship to exceedmaximum safe draft for the berth until sufficient cargo is discharged.• Also to keep freeboard within the restrictions of the Terminal LoadingArms and ship’s portable gangway elevation angle.• Deballasting to be carried out from seaward side, if required todeballast from port side then should be done through lower sea suction.• During deballasting to avoid pollution due to contaminated segregatedballast, the surface of the ballast should be sighted, prior tocommencing deballasting. When segregated ballast is beingdischarged, it is prudent to monitor the ballast discharged overboard bymeans of ballast water monitor or visual watch should be established.This may give the earliest warning of any inter-tank leakage betweencargo and ballast tanks that may have been undetected. The operationshould be stopped immediately in the event of contamination beingobserved.• If case of deballasting CBT tanker or heavy weather clean ballastcontained in cargo tanks is required then following terms and conditionshould be followed:• Contd..21/-
