PROGRESS TOWARDS A CANADIAN GREEN SHIP PROGRAM
Discussion Paper CMAC, April/May 2002. At CMAC National in May 2001, a presentation was made of a scooping study intended to lead into the development of a ‘Green Ship’ program that would encourage and support the use of environmentally sensitive shipping in Canadian waters. The first step in this was to define a ‘Green Ship’, as follows: A vessel that, by virtue of its ship and shore side management and systems, has demonstrated a commitment to environmental protection above and beyond the minimum set by Canadian and international regulations.

The Green Award Flag
awarded to vessels which are extra safe, extra clean. Green Award vessels are the vanguard of the international shipping industry. A Green Award ship meets high, but manageable technical and managerial requirements. An increasing number of ports and nautical providers recognize the value of Green Award and offer special rates and other advantages to Green Award vessels. The Green Award certificate confirms the high quality of the vessel and it contributes to a positive image of the ship owner with all the advantages this entails. More and more shipping-companies apply for a Green Award for their vessels. Green Award checks on a yearly basis if a vessel still meets the requirements.
