SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background and Purpose 

Under Coast Guard regulation 33 CFR 

151.53(b), the Coast Guard announces 

the May 1, 2011 date for entry into effect 

of discharge requirements from ships in 

the WCR SA. The WCR is defined in 33 

CFR 151.06(a)(12). As of May 1, 2011, 

the discharge restrictions for SAs set 

forth in 33 CFR 151.71 will be 

applicable to the WCR SA. 

In accordance with the provisions of 

regulation 5(4)(b) found in MARPOL 

Annex V, the United States, along with 

a sufficient number of WCR States that 

are parties to MARPOL, submitted 

notices on the availability of adequate 

reception facilities in the region to the 

International Maritime Organization’s 

(IMO) Marine Environment Protection 

Committee (MEPC) at a meeting of the 

MEPC in March, 2010. During the 

meeting the WCR States requested that 

the MEPC establish a date for the entry 

into effect of the WCR SA. The MEPC 

noted the information provided by 

Member States in the WCR SA, to 

include the United States, and decided 

that the requirements for sufficient 

notification of adequate reception 

facilities for the WCR SA had been met. 

The MEPC adopted resolution 

MEPC.191(60) and the IMO Secretariat 

transmitted the text of the resolution to 

all interested parties via Circular Letter 

No.3053 dated April 14, 2010. These 

documents are available on the IMO’s 

Web site at http://www.imo.org. 

As a party to MARPOL Annex V, the 

United States proposed to the IMO’s 

MEPC to establish the Gulf of Mexico as 

an SA under MARPOL Annex V in 

September 1990. The country of 

Venezuela submitted an amendment to 

the proposal to include the WCR along 

with the Gulf of Mexico as an SA under 

MARPOL Annex V in November 1990. 

The MEPC adopted the proposal to 

establish the WCR SA, including the 

Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea, 

in July 1991. The SA entered into force 

in April 1993, and MARPOL Annex V 

discharge requirements for the SA will 

enter into effect May 1, 2011. When the 

discharge requirements in regulation 5 

of MARPOL Annex V enter into effect 

for the WCR SA, the discharge 

restrictions in 33 CFR 151.71 will also 

enter into effect. These regulations state 

that no person may discharge garbage 

from a ship except food wastes. The 

disposal of food wastes into the sea 

shall be made as far as practicable from 

land, but in any case not less than 12 

nautical miles from the nearest land. 

Food wastes comminuted or ground and 

capable of passing through a screen with 

openings no greater than 25 mm may be 

discharged not less than 3 nautical 

miles from the nearest land. 

The Coast Guard intends to update 

the list of SAs, in accordance with 33 

CFR 151.53(b), to include where 

discharge restrictions are effective in a 

separate rule change.

determination pursuant to section 

1605(b), the head of the department or
