       经过长时间的“拉力赛”,在芬兰投下最后一根稻草之后。《2004国际船舶压载水和沉积物控制与管理公约》以下简称压载水公约或已达到生效条件,该公约将于明年秋季生效!

       根据芬兰交通部官方网站消息以及IMO官方网站消息,9月8日,芬兰正式向IMO秘书长林泽基先生递交了公约加入文书。
 
       这样IMO宣布,芬兰加入该公约后,缔约国船舶吨位总数占比已经达到 35.1441%,缔约国(地区)总数达到了 52个,已经完全满足了触发公约生效的条件(35%,30个国家和地区),这就意味着,公约将在2017年9月8日正式生效。

       IMO官网原文如下:“The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments (BWM Convention) will enter into force on 8 September 2017, marking a landmark step towards halting the spread of invasive aquatic species, which can cause havoc for local ecosystems, affect biodiversity and lead to substantial economic loss. ”
“The accession brings the combined tonnage of contracting States to the treaty to 35.1441%, with 52 contracting Parties. The convention stipulates that it will enter into force 12 months after ratification by a minimum of 30 States, representing 35% of world merchant shipping tonnage.”
