                                PREFACE

      This Programme was prepared by the Office for Transportation Security,
Department of Transportation & Communications, Republic of the Philippines.

         The guidelines hereto provided ensures compliance and implements the
new International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) preventive security framework
detailed in the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, which
will enter into force from 1 July 2004. All Philippine regulated ships, ports, port
facilities and port service providers covered under the ISPS Code should have
approved security assessments and plans by 30 June 2004.

      The ISPS Code requires security assessments to establish threats,
determine vulnerabilities and treat risks to assets, infrastructure and operations.
The ISPS Code requires security assessments to be undertaken and based
thereon, a detailed security plans prepared. This approach recognizes that
owners and operators are best placed to determine the vulnerabilities of their


                                     2
own assets, infrastructure and operations as well as identify appropriate
      preventive security measures and procedures and develop appropriate security
      plans.

Chapter 4.   SETTING THE SECURITY LEVEL

      4.1.   The setting of security level applying at any particular time at any particular port
             facility is the responsibility of the Office for Transportation Security, as the
             Designated Authority and Administration, of the Department of Transportation
             and Communications (DOTC), as the Contracting Government, and shall apply to
             Philippine ships and ports facilities to which the ISPS Code apply.

      4.2.   The OTS shall create, establish and institutionalize an appropriate mechanism to
             properly and accurately set the security level at which Philippine ships and ports
             covered by the ISPS Code shall operate. In setting up the mechanism, the OTS
             shall use, take advantage of, or interface with all existing relevant and available
             resources, systems and network of government and private sector for information
             and data needed in coming up with a reliable intelligence estimate and essential
             elements of information.

      4.3.   The mechanism shall also provide for an appropriate communication setup for
             the immediate real-time transmission of security level information to all
             concerned, as well as receiving capability to monitor and receive security
             information.

      4.4.   In setting the security level, the OTS should take into account the general threat
             information, information on potential and prevailing threats in specific localities,


                                               7
consideration of national and local interests, and other relevant data gathered
       from all possible sources. Security level shall be set at one of following three
       levels:

       4.4.1   Security Level 1. Normal - the level at which the ship or port
               facility normally operates where minimum appropriate protective
               measures are maintained at all times;

       4.4.2. Security Level 2. Heightened - the level applying for as long as
              there is an increased risk of a security incident where appropriate
              additional protective measures shall be maintained for a period of
              time as a result of heightened risk of a security incident/threat;
              and,

       4.4.3. Security Level 3. Exceptional - the level applying for the period of
              time when there is probable or imminent risk of a security incident
              although it may not be possible to identify the specific target and
              where further specific protective measures shall be maintained for
              such limited period of time.

4.5.   Setting at Security Level 3 should be an exceptional measure applying only when
       it is credible that a security incident is probable or imminent. Security Level 3
       should only be set for the duration of the identified security threat or actual
       security incident. While the security levels may change from Security Level 1,
       through Security Level 2 to Security Level 3, it is also possible that the security
       levels will change directly from Security Level 1 to Security Level 3.

4.6    At all times, the master of a covered ship has the ultimate responsibility for the
       safety and security of the ship. Even at Security Level 3 a master may seek
       clarification or amendment of instructions issued by those responding to a
       security incident, or threat thereof, if there are reasons to believe that compliance
       with any instruction may imperil the safety of the ship.

4.7    The CSO or the SSO should liaise at the earliest opportunity with the PFSO of
       the port facility the ship is intending to visit to establish the security level applying
       for that ship at the port facility. Having established contact with a ship, the PFSO
       should advise the ship of any subsequent change in the port facility’s security
       level and should provide the ship with any relevant security information.

4.8.   While there may be circumstances when an individual ship may be operating at a
       higher security level than the port facility it is visiting, there will be no
       circumstances when a ship can have a lower security level than the port facility it
       is visiting. If a ship has a higher security level than the port facility it intends to
       use, the CSO or SSO should advise the PFSO without delay. The PFSO should
       undertake an assessment of the particular situation in consultation with the CSO
       or SSO and agree on appropriate security measures with the ship, which may
       include completion and signing of a Declaration of Security.

4.9.   OTS should consider how information on changes in security levels should be
       promulgated and disseminated rapidly. The OTS may wish to use Navigational


                                          8
Telex (NAVTEX) messages or Notices to Mariners as the method for notifying
              such changes in security levels to the ship and to the CSO and SSO. Or, they
              may wish to consider other methods of communication that provide equivalent or
              better speed and coverage.

      4.10.   The OTS should establish means of notifying concerned PFSO of security levels
              in their respective port facilities, and of changes in such security levels.

      4.11.   The OTS should compile and maintain the contact details or a list of those who
              need to be informed of changes in security levels. Whereas the security level
              need not be regarded as being particularly sensitive, the underlying threat
              information may be highly sensitive.

      4.12.   The OTS should give careful consideration to the type and detail of the
              information conveyed and the method by which it is conveyed to an SSO, CSO
              and/or PFSO.

Chapter 5.    SHIP SECURITY ASSESSMENT

      GENERAL.

      5.1.    A Ship Security Assessment (SSA) shall be carried out for each Philippine-
              registered ship covered by the ISPS Code. The SSA is an essential and integral
              part of the process of developing and updating the Ship Security Plan.

      5.2.    The SSA shall be carried out by persons with appropriate skills to evaluate the
              security of a ship. The company security officer shall ensure that the SSA is
              undertaken by such persons.

      5.3     A Recognized Security Organization (RSO) may carry out the ship security
              assessment of a specific ship.

      5.4     The SSA shall include an on-scene security survey and contain at least the
              following elements:

              5.4.1. Identification of existing security measures, procedures and
                     operations;

              5.4.2   Identification and evaluation of key ship board operations that it is
                      important to protect;

              5.4.3   Identification of possible threats to the key ship board operations
                      and the likelihood of their occurrence, in order to establish and
                      prioritize security measures; and

              5.4.4   Identification of weaknesses, including human factors in the
                      infrastructure, policies and procedures.




                                                9
5.5.   The Company Security Officer (CSO) shall be responsible for ensuring that a
       Ship Security Assessment (SSA) is carried out for each of the ships in the
       Company’s fleet covered by the ISPS Code. While the CSO need not
       necessarily personally undertake all the duties associated with the post, the
       ultimate responsibility for ensuring that they are properly performed remains with
       the individual CSO.

5.6.   Prior to commencing the SSA, the CSO should ensure that advantage is taken of
       information available on the assessment of threat for the ports at which the ship
       will call or at which passengers embark and disembark and about the port
       facilities and their protective measures. The CSO should meet with appropriate

5.14.   The CSO and SSO should always have regard to the effect that security
        measures may have on ship’s personnel who will remain on the ship for long
        periods. When developing security measures, particular consideration should be
        given to the convenience, comfort and personal privacy of the ship’s personnel
        ad their ability to maintain their effectiveness over long periods.

5.15.   Upon completion of the SSA, a report shall be prepared, consisting of a summary
        of how the assessment was conducted, a description of each vulnerability found
        during the assessment and a description of counter measures that could be used
        to address each vulnerability. The report shall be protected from unauthorized
        access or disclosure.

5.16.   If the SSA has not been carried out by the Company, the report of the SSA
        should be reviewed and accepted by the CSO.

5.17.   SSA Report shall be the exclusive and confidential property of the Company and
        shall be considered a controlled document. Access to the SSA Report is allowed


                                          13

Chapter 6.    SHIP SECURITY PLAN

      GENERAL

      6.1     Each ship shall carry onboard beginning 01 July 2004, a Ship Security Plan
              (SSP) duly approved by the Office for Transportation Security (OTS) or by an
              duly an authorized Recognized Security Organization (RSO) acting on its behalf.

      6.2.    The SSP shall be developed on the basis of a ship security assessment which
              shall form part of the submission to the OTS when approval of the SSP is being
              sought.

      6.3.    The SSP shall make provisions for the three (3) security levels and must clearly
              stipulate the security measures that should be taken at each security level.

      6.4.    The Company Security Officer (CSO) has the responsibility of ensuring that a
              Ship Security Plan (SSP) is prepared and submitted for approval. The content of
              each individual SSP should vary depending on the particular ship it covers. The
              ship security assessment (SSA) will have identified the particular features of the


                                               14
ship and the potential threats and vulnerabilities. The preparation of the SSP will
       require these features to be addressed in detail.

6.5.   A Ship Security Plan (SSP) should:

       6.5.1. Detail the organizational structure of security for the ship;

       6.5.2. Detail the ship’s relationships with the Company, port facilities,
              other ships and relevant authorities with security responsibility;

       6.5.3. Detail the communication systems to allow effective and
              continuous communication within the ship and between the ship
              and others, including port facilities;

       6.5.4. Detail the basic security measures for security level 1, both
              operational and physical, that will always be in place;

       6.5.5. Detail all additional security measures that will allow the ship to
              progress without delay to security level 2 and, when necessary, to
              security level 3;

       6.5.6. Provide for regular review, or audit, of the SSP and for its
              amendment in response to experience or changing
              circumstances; and

       6.5.7. Detailed reporting procedures to the OTS.

6.6.   Preparation of an effective SSP should be based on a thorough assessment of
       all issues that relate to the security of the ship, including, in particular, a thorough
       appreciation of the physical and operational characteristics, including the voyage
       pattern, of the individual ship.

6.7.   The Ship security Plan should be approved by, or on behalf of the OTS. If OTS
       uses a recognized security organization (RSO) to review or approve the SSP,
       that RSO should not be associated with any other RSO that prepared, or
       assisted in the preparation of the plan.

6.8.   The CSO and SSO should develop procedures to:

       6.8.1. Assess the continuing effectiveness of the SSP; and,

       5.8.2. Prepare amendments of the plan subsequent to its approval.

6.9    The security measures included in the SSP should be in place when the initial
       verification is conducted for compliance with the requirements of the ISPS Code
       will be carried out. Otherwise the process of issuance to the ship of the required
       International Ship Security Certificate (ISSC) cannot be carried out. If there is
       any subsequent failure of security equipment or systems, or suspension of a




                                         15
security measure for whatever reason, equivalent temporary security measures
        should be adopted and the same be notified to and approved by OTS.

ORGANIZATION AND PERFORMANCE OF SHIP SECURITY DUTIES

6.10.   The SSP should establish the following, which relate to all security levels:

        6.10.1. The duties and responsibilities of all shipboard personnel with a
                security role;

        6.10.2. The procedures or safeguards necessary to allow such continuous
                communications to be maintained at all times;

        6.10.3. The procedures needed to assess the continuing effectiveness of
                security procedures and any security and surveillance equipment
                and systems, including procedures for identifying and responding
                to equipment or systems failure or malfunction;

        6.10.4. The procedures and practices to protect security-sensitive
                information held in paper or electronic format;

        6.10.5. The type and maintenance requirements of security and
                surveillance equipment and systems, if any;

        6.10.6. The procedures to ensure the timely submission, and assessment,
                of reports relating to possible breaches of security or security
                concerns; and

        6.10.7. Procedures to establish maintain and update an inventory of any
                dangerous goods or hazardous substances carried on board,
                including their location.

6.11.   The SSP should also specifically address the security measures that could be
        taken at each security level covering:

        6.11.1. Access to the ship by ship’s personnel, passengers, visitors, etc.;

        6.11.2. Restricted areas on the ship;

        6.11.3. Handling of cargo;

                                             16
ACCESS TO THE SHIP

6.12.   The SSP should establish the security measures covering all means of access to
        the ship identified in the SSA. This should include any:

        6.12.1. Access ladders;

        6.12.2. Access gangways;

        6.12.3. Access ramps;

        6.12.4. Access doors, sidescuttles, windows and ports;

        6.12.5. Mooring lines and anchor chains; and,

        6.12.6. Cranes and hoisting gear.

6.13.   For each of these, the SSP should identify the appropriate locations where
        access restrictions or prohibitions should be applied for each of the security
        levels. For each security level, the SSP should establish the type of restriction or
        prohibition to be applied and the means of enforcing them.

6.14.   The SSP should establish for each security level the means of identification
        required to allow access to the ship and for individuals to remain on the ship
        without challenge. This may involve developing an appropriate identification
        system, allowing for permanent and temporary identifications for ship’s personnel
        and for visitors respectively. Any ship identification system should, when it is
        practicable to do so, be co-coordinated with that applying to the port facility.
        Passengers should be able to prove their identity by boarding passes, tickets,
        etc., but should not be permitted access to restricted areas unless supervised.
        The SSP should establish provisions to ensure that the identification systems are
        regularly updated, and that abuse of procedures should be subject to disciplinary
        action.

6.15.   Those unwilling or unable to establish their identity and/or to confirm the purpose
        of their visit when requested to do so should be denied access to the ship and
        their attempt to obtain access should be reported, as appropriate, to the SSO,
        the CSO, the PFSO and to the OTS and local authorities with security
        responsibilities.

6.16.   The SSP should establish the frequency of application of any access controls,
        particularly if they are to be applied on a random, or occasional, basis.

AT SECURITY LEVEL 1

6.17.   The SSP should establish the security measures to control access to the ship,
        where the following may be applied:




                                         17
6.17.1. Checking the identity of all persons seeking to board the ship and
                confirming their reasons for doing so by checking, for example,
                joining instructions, passenger tickets, boarding passes, work
                orders, etc.;

        6.17.2. In liaison with the port facility, the ship should ensure that
                designated secure areas are established in which screening
                inspections and searching of persons, baggage (including carry-
                on items), personal effects, vehicles and their contents can take
                place;

        6.17.3. In liaison with the port facility, the ship should ensure that vehicles
                destined to be loaded on board car carriers, ro-ro and other
                passenger ships are subjected to search prior to loading, in
                accordance with the frequency required in the SSP;

        6.17.4. Segregating checked persons and their personal effects from
                unchecked persons and their personal effects;

        6.17.5. Segregating embarking from disembarking passengers;

        6.17.6. Identifying access points that should be secured or attended to
                prevent unauthorized access;

        6.17.7. Securing, by locking or other means, access to unattended
                spaces adjoining areas to which passengers and visitors have
                access; and,

        6.17.8. Providing security briefings to all ship personnel on possible
                threats, the procedures for reporting suspicious persons, objects
                or activities and the need for vigilance.

6.18.   All those seeking to board a ship should be liable to search and screening. The
        frequency of such screening or searches, including random searches, should be
        specified in the approved SSP. These screening and searches may best be
        undertaken by the port facility in close co-operation with the ship and in close
        proximity to it. Unless there are clear security grounds for doing so, members of
        the ship’s personnel should not be required to search their colleagues or their
        personal effects. Any such search shall be undertaken in a manner which fully
        takes into account the human rights of the individual and preserves their basic
        human dignity.

AT SECURITY LEVEL 2.

6.19.   The SSP should establish the security measures to be applied to protect against
        a heightened risk of a security incident to ensure higher vigilance and tighter
        control, which may include:

        6.19.1. Assigning additional personnel to patrol deck areas during silent
                hours to deter unauthorized access;


                                          18
6.19.2. Limiting the number of access points to the ship, identifying those
                to be closed and the means of adequately securing them;

        6.19.3. Deterring waterside access to the ship, including, for example, in
                liaison with the port facility, provision of boat patrols;

        6.19.4. Establishing a restricted area on the shore side of the ship, in
                close co-operation with the port facility;

        6.19.5. Increasing the frequency and detail of searches of persons,
                personal effects, and vehicles being embarked or loaded onto the
                ship;

        6.19.6. Escorting visitors on the ship;

        6.19.7. Providing additional specific security briefings to all ship personnel
                on any identified threats, re-emphasizing the procedures for
                reporting suspicious persons, objects, or activities and stressing
                the need for increased vigilance; and

        6.19.8. Carrying out a full or partial search of the ship.

AT SECURITY LEVEL 3

6.20.   The ship should comply with the instructions issued by those responding to the
        security on incident or threat thereof. The SSP should detail the security
        measures which could be taken by the ship, in close co-operation with those
        responding and the port facility, which may include:

        6.20.1. Limiting access to a single, controlled, access point;

        6.20.2. Granting access only to those responding to the security incident
                or threat thereof;

        6.20.3. Directing persons on board;

        6.20.4. Suspension of embarkation or disembarkation;

        6.20.5. Suspension of cargo handling operations, deliveries, etc.

        6.20.6. Evacuation of the ship; and,

        6.20.7. Preparing for a full or partial search of the ship.

RESTRICTED AREAS ON THE SHIP

6.21.   The SSP should identify the restricted areas to be established on the ship,
        specify their extent, times of application, the security measures to be taken to



                                          19
control access to them and those to be taken to control activities within them.

               renewal verification to a date not exceeding five (5) years from the
               date of completion of the renewal verification.

7.11.   If a Certificate is issued for a period of less than five years, the OTS may extend
        the validity of the Certificate beyond the expiry date to the maximum period,
        provided that the verifications, as applicable when a Certificate is issued for a
        period of five (5) years are carried out as appropriate.

7.12.   If a renewal verification has been completed and a new Certificate cannot be
        issued or placed on board the ship before the expiry date of the existing
        certificate, the OTS or recognized security organization acting on behalf of the
        OTS, may endorse the existing Certificate and such a Certificate shall be
        accepted as valid for a further period which shall not exceed five (5) months from
        the expiry date.

7.13.   If a ship at the time when a Certificate expires is not in a port in which it is to be
        verified, the OTS may extend the period of validity of the Certificate but this
        extension shall be granted only for the purpose of allowing the ship to complete
        its voyage to the port in which it is to be verified, and then only in cases where it
        appears proper and reasonable to do so. No Certificate shall be extended for a
        period longer than three (3) months, and the ship to which an extension is
        granted shall not, on its arrival in the port in which it is to be verified, be entitled
        by virtue of such extension to leave that port without having a new Certificate.
        When the renewal verification is completed, the new Certificate shall be valid to a
        date not exceeding five (5) years from the expiry date of the existing Certificate
        before the extension was granted.

7.14.   A Certificate issued to a ship engaged on short voyages which has not been
        extended under the foregoing provisions of this section may be extended by the
        OTS for a grace period of one (1) month from the date of expiry stated on it.
        When the renewal verification is completed, the new Certificate shall be valid to a
        date not exceeding five (5) years from the date of expiry of the existing Certificate
        before the extension was granted.

7.15.   If an intermediate verification is completed before the period, then:

        7.15.1 The expiry date shown on the certificate shall be amended by
               endorsement to a date which shall not be more than three years
               later than the date on which the intermediate verification was
               completed;

        7.15.2 The expiry date may remain unchanged provided one or more
               additional verifications are carried out so that the maximum
               intervals between the verifications are not exceeded.

7.16.   A certificate issued shall cease to be valid in any of the following cases:

        7.16.1. If the relevant verifications are not completed within the periods
                specified;


                                          30
7.16.2 If the certificate is not endorsed, if applicable;

        7.16.3. When a Company assumes the responsibility for the operation of
                a ship not previously operated by that Company; and,

        7.16.4. Upon transfer of the ship to the flag of another State.

        7.16.5. In the case of:

                1.      A transfer of a ship to the flag of another Contracting
                        Government, the OTS shall, as soon as possible, transmit
                        to the receiving Administration copies of, or all information
                        relating to, the International Ship Security Certificate
                        carried by the ship before the transfer and copies of
                        available verification reports, or

                2.      A Company that assumes responsibility for the operation of
                        a ship not previously operated by that Company, the
                        previous company shall as soon as possible transmit to the
                        receiving Company copies of any information related to the
                        International Ship Security Certificate or to facilitate the
                        verifications described in Rule 12.4.2 hereof.

INTERIM CERTIFICATION

7.17.   An Interim Certificate shall be issued only when the OTS is fully satisfied that the
        ship complies with all the requirements herein declared. However, after 1 July
        2004, it shall be issued for the following reasons of:

        7.17.1 A ship without a Certificate, on delivery or prior to its entry or re-
               entry into service;

        7.17.2 Transfer of a ship to the Philippine Registry from the flag of

                                         32
Chapter 8.   PORT FACILITY SECURITY ASSESSMENT

      GENERAL

      8.1.   A Port Facility Security Assessment (PFSA) shall be carried out on each port
             facility. The PFSA is fundamentally a risk analysis of all aspects of a port
             facility’s operation in order to determine which part or parts of the facility are
             more susceptible, and/or more likely, to be the target of attack. Security risk is a
             function of the threat of an attack coupled with the vulnerability of the target and
             the consequences of an attack. The assessment must include the following
             components:

             8.1.1. The determination of the perceived threats to port installations and
                    infrastructures;

             8.1.2. Identification of potential vulnerabilities; and

             8.1.3. Calculation of the consequences of possible incidents.

      8.2.   The PFSA shall be made the basis in developing (or updating) the Port Facility
             Security Plan, and shall be submitted together with the PFSP, as an integral part
             thereof, to the OTS for approval.

      8.3.   All submitted port facility security assessments shall be reviewed and verified by
             the OTS prior to approval.

      8.4.   If the OTS authorizes an RSO to review or verify compliance of the PFSA, that
             RSO should not be associated with any other RSO that prepared or assisted in
             the preparation of that assessment.

      8.5.   The persons carrying out the assessment should have appropriate skills to
             evaluate the security of the port facility, and should be able to acquire expert
             assistance in relation to:

             8.5.1. Knowledge of current security threats and patterns;

             8.5.2. Recognition and detection of weapons, dangerous substances
                    and devices;

             8.5.3. Recognition, on a non-discriminatory basis, of characteristics and
                    behavioral patterns of persons who are likely to threaten security;

             8.5.4. Techniques used to circumvent security measures;

             8.5.5. Methods used to cause a security incident;

             8.5.6. Effects of explosives on structures and port facility services;

             8.5.7. Port facility security;


                                               33
8.5.8. Port business practices;

       8.5.9. Contingency planning, emergency preparedness and response;

       8.5.10. Physical security measures, e.g. fences;

       8.5.11. Radio and telecommunications systems, including computer
               systems and networks;

       8.5.12. Transport and civil engineering; and,

       8.5.13. Ship and port operations.

8.6.   The PFSA should address the following elements within a port facility:

       8.6.1. Physical security;

       8.6.2. Structural integrity;

       8.6.3. Personnel protection systems;

       8.6.4. Procedural policies;

       8.6.5. Radio and telecommunication systems, including computer
              systems and networks;

       8.6.6. Relevant transportation infrastructure;

       8.6.7. Utilities; and,

       8.6.8. Other areas that may, if damaged or used for illicit observation,
              pose a risk to persons, property, or operations within the port
              facility.

8.7.   The port facility security assessment shall include an on-scene security survey
       which shall cover the following elements:

       8.7.1. Identification and evaluation of important           assets       and
              infrastructures that are important to protect;

       8.7.2. Identification of possible threats to the assets and infrastructure
              and the likelihood and consequences of their occurrence, in order
              to establish and prioritize security measures;

       8.7.3. Identification, selection and prioritization of countermeasures and
              procedural changes and their level of effectiveness in reducing
              vulnerability; and,




                                         34
8.7.4. Identification of weaknesses, including human factors, in the
              infrastructure, policies and procedures;

8.8.   The on-scene security survey shall also include examination and evaluation of:

       8.8.1. Methods and procedures used to control access into the
              port/terminal and the designated restricted area/s including:

              1.     Inspection, control and monitoring of persons and carry on
                     articles; and,

              2.     Inspection, control and monitoring of cargoes, equipment
                     and baggage;

       8.8.2. Methods and procedures used to safeguard cargoes and
              equipment held in storage within the port or terminal;

       8.8.3. Each identified point of access to the port/terminal and restricted
              area/s for its potential use by individual who might be engaged in
              unlawful acts; and

       8.8.4. Existing security measures under both normal and emergency
              conditions including:

              1.     Established safety procedures;

              2.     Deployment      of        security   personnel        to     strategic
                     posts/locations;

              3.     Restrictions or limitations on vehicle access to the
                     port/terminal and restricted area/s;

              4.     The frequency and effectiveness                  of        patrol   by
                     police/security personnel;

              5.     The level of supervision of personnel;

                                          35
IDENTIFICATION AND   EVALUATION                    OF       IMPORTANT        ASSETS      AND
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR PROTECTION

8.9.    The identification and evaluation of important assets and infrastructure is a
        process through which the relative importance of structures and installations to
        the functioning of the port facility can be established. This identification and
        evaluation process is important because it provides a basis for focusing
        mitigation strategies on those assets and structures, which it is more important to
        protect from a security incident. This process should take into account potential
        loss of life, the economic significance of the port, symbolic value, and the
        presence of Government installations.

8.10.   Identification and evaluation of assets and infrastructure should be used to
        prioritize their relative importance for protection. The primary concern should be
        avoidance of death or injury. It is also important to consider whether the port
        facility, structure or installation can continue to function without the asset, and the
        extent to which rapid re-establishment of normal functioning is possible.

8.11.   Assets and infrastructure that should be considered important to protect may
        include:

        8.11.1. Accesses, entrances, approaches, and anchorages, maneuvering
                and berthing areas;

        8.11.2. Cargo facilities, terminals, storage areas, and cargo handling
                equipment;

        8.11.3. Systems such as electrical distribution systems, radio and
                telecommunication systems and computer systems and networks;

        8.11.4. Port vessel traffic management systems and aids to navigation;

        8.11.5. Power plants, cargo transfer piping and water supplies;

        8.11.6. Bridges, railways, roads;

        8.11.7. Port service vessels, including pilot boats, tugs, lighters, etc.;

        8.11.8. Security and surveillance equipment and systems; and,

        8.11.9. The waters adjacent to the port facility.

8.12.   The clear identification of assets and infrastructure is essential to the evaluation
        of the port facility’s security requirements, the prioritization of protective
        measures and decisions concerning the allocation of resource to better protect
        the port facility. The process may involve consultation with the relevant
        authorities relating to structures adjacent to the port facility which could cause




                                            36
damage within the facility or be used for the purpose of causing damage to the
        facility or for illicit observation of the facility or for diverting attention.

IDENTIFICATION OF POSSIBLE THREATS TO ASSETS AND INFRASTRUCTURE
AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF ITS OCCURRENCE FOR ESTABLISHING AND
PRIORITIZING SECURITY MEASURES

8.13.   Possible acts that could threaten the security of assets and infrastructure, and
        the methods of carrying out those acts, should be identified to evaluate the
        vulnerability of a given asset or location to a security incident, and to establish
        and prioritize security requirements to enable planning and resource allocations.
        Identification and evaluation of each potential act and its method should be
        based on various factors, including threat assessments by Government
        agencies.      By identifying and assessing threats, those conducting the
        assessment do not have to rely on worst-case scenarios to guide planning and
        resource allocations.

8.14.   The PFSA should include an assessment undertaken in consultation with the
        relevant national security organizations to determine:

        8.14.1. Any particular aspects of the port facility, including the vessel
                traffic using the facility, which make it likely to be the target of an
                attack;

        8.14.2. The likely consequences in terms of loss of life, damage to
                property and economic disruption, including disruption to transport
                systems, of an attack on, or at, the port facility;

        8.14.3. The capability and intent of those likely to mount such an attack;
                and,

        8.14.4. The possible type, or types of attack.

        In producing an overall assessment of the level of risk against which
        security measures have to be developed,

8.15.   The PFSA should consider all possible threats, which may include the following
        types of security incidents:

        8.15.1. Damage to, or destruction of, the port facility or of the ship, e.g. by
                explosive devices, arson, sabotage or vandalism;

        8.15.2. Hijacking or seizure of the ship or of persons on board;

        8.15.3. Tampering with cargo, essential ship equipment or systems or
                ship’s stores;

        8.15.4. Unauthorized access or use, including presence of stowaways;




                                          37
8.15.5. Smuggling weapons or equipment, including weapons of mass
                destruction;

        8.15.6. Use of the ship to carry those intending to cause a security
                incident and their equipment;

        8.15.7. Use of the ship itself as a weapon or as a means to cause
                damage or destruction;

        8.15.8. Blockage of port entrances, locks, approaches, etc; and,

        8.15.9. Nuclear, biological and chemical attack.

8.16.   The process should involve consultation with the relevant authorities relating to
        structures adjacent to the port facility, which could cause damage within the
        facility or be used for the purpose of causing damage to the facility or for illicit
        observation of the facility or for diverting attention.

IDENTIFICATION, SELECTION AND PRIORITIZATION OF COUNTERMEASURES
AND PROCEDURAL CHANGES AND THEIR LEVEL OF EFFECTIVENESS IN
REDUCING VULNERABLITY

8.17.   The identification and prioritization of countermeasures is designed to ensure
        that the most effective security measures are employed to reduce the
        vulnerability of a port facility or ship/port interface to the possible threats.

8.18.   Security measures should be selected on the basis of factors such as whether
        they reduce the probability of an attack and should be evaluated using
        information that includes:

        8.18.1. Security surveys, inspections and audits;

        8.18.2. Consultation with port facility owners and operators and
                owners/operators of adjacent structures if appropriate;

        8.18.3. Historical information on security incidents; and,

        8.18.4. Operations within the port facility.

IDENTIFICATION OF VULNERABILITIES

8.19.   Identification of vulnerabilities in physical structures, personnel protection
        systems, processes or other areas that may lead to a security incident can be
        used to establish options to eliminate or mitigate those vulnerabilities. For
        example, an analysis might reveal vulnerabilities in a port facility’s security
        systems or unprotected infrastructure such as water supplies, bridges, etc. that
        could be resolved through physical measures, e.g. permanent barriers, alarms,
        surveillance equipment, etc.




                                          38
8.20.   Identification of vulnerabilities should include consideration of:

        8.20.1 Waterside and shore-side access to the port facility and ships
               berthing at the facility;

        8.20.2. Structural integrity of the piers, facilities and associated structures;

        8.20.3. Existing security measures and procedures including identification
                systems;

        8.20.4. Existing security measures and procedures relating to port

Chapter 9.    PORT FACILITY SECURITY PLAN

      GENERAL

      9.1.    Each port facility shall have a Port Facility Security Plan (PFSP) approved by the
              OTS beginning 01 July 2004.

      9.2.    The PFSP shall be developed by the persons or organizations that carried out
              the port facility security assessment and maintained on the basis of such security
              assessment.

      9.3.    Preparation of the PFSP is the responsibility of the Port Facility Security Officer
              (PFSO). While the PFSO need not necessarily personally undertake all the
              duties associated with the post the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that they
              are properly performed remains with the individual PFSO.

      9.4.    Preparation of an effective PFSP will rest on a thorough assessment of all issues
              that relate to the security of the port facility, including, in particular, a thorough
              appreciation of the physical and operational characteristics of the individual port
              facility.

      9.5.    The content of each individual PFSP should vary depending on the particular
              circumstances of the port facility, or facilities, it covers. The PFSA shall have
              identified the particular features of the port facility, and of the potential security
              risks, that have led to the need to appoint a PFSO and to prepare a PFSP. The
              preparation of the PFSP will require these features, and other local or national
              security considerations to be addressed in the PFSP, and for appropriate security
              measures to be established so as to minimize the likelihood of a breach of
              security and the consequences of potential risks. Advice on the preparation and
              content of a PFSP may be obtained from the OTS or the PPA.

      9.6.    The PFSP shall address, at least, the following:

              9.6.1. Measures designed to prevent weapons or any other dangerous
                     substances and devices intended for use against persons, ships
                     or ports, and the carriage of which is not authorized, from being
                     introduced in the port facility or on board a ship;




                                                40
9.6.2. Measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to the port, to
       ships moored at the facility, and to restricted areas of the facility;

9.6.3. Procedures for responding to security threats or breaches of
       security, including provisions for maintaining critical operations of
       the port, or ship/port interface;

9.6.4. Procedures for responding to any security instructions the
       Government may give at security level 3;

9.6.5. Procedures for evacuation in case of security threats or breaches
       of security;

9.6.6. Duties of port personnel assigned security responsibilities and of
       other facility personnel on security aspects and the performance
       measures needed to allow their individual effectiveness to be
       assessed;

9.6.7. Procedures for interfacing with ship security activities;

9.6.8. Procedures for the periodic review of the plan and updating;

9.6.9. Procedures for reporting security incidents;

9.6.10. Identification of the port security officer, including 24-hour contact
        details;

9.6.11. Measures to ensure the security of the information contained in
        the plan;

9.6.12. Measures designed to ensure effective security of cargo and the
        cargo handling equipment at the port facility;

9.6.13. Procedures for regular review and/or audit of the PFSP and of its
        amendments in response to experience or changing
        circumstances, including but not limited to, procedures to assess
        the continuing effectiveness of security measures, procedures and
        equipment, including identification of, and response to, equipment
        failure or malfunction;

9.6.14. Procedures for responding in case the ship security alert system
        of a ship at the port facility has been activated;

9.6.15. Communication systems to allow effective and continuous
        communication between port facility security personnel and ships
        in port and, when appropriate, with national or local authorities
        with security responsibilities;

Chapter 4. SETTING THE SECURITY LEVEL 4.1. The setting of security level applying at any particular time at any particular port facility is the responsibility of the Office for Transportation Security, as the Designated Authority and Administration, of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC), as the Contracting Government, and shall apply to Philippine ships and ports facilities to which the ISPS Code apply. 4.2. The OTS shall create, establish and institutionalize an appropriate mechanism to properly and accurately set the security level at which Philippine ships and ports covered by the ISPS Code shall operate. In setting up the mechanism, the OTS shall use, take advantage of, or interface with all existing relevant and available resources, systems and network of government and private sector for information and data needed in coming up with a reliable intelligence estimate and essential elements of information. 4.3. The mechanism shall also provide for an appropriate communication setup for the immediate real-time transmission of security level information to all concerned, as well as receiving capability to monitor and receive security information. 4.4. In setting the security level, the OTS should take into account the general threat information, information on potential and prevailing threats in specific localities, 7
  • 8. consideration of national and local interests, and other relevant data gathered from all possible sources. Security level shall be set at one of following three levels: 4.4.1 Security Level 1. Normal - the level at which the ship or port facility normally operates where minimum appropriate protective measures are maintained at all times; 4.4.2. Security Level 2. Heightened - the level applying for as long as there is an increased risk of a security incident where appropriate additional protective measures shall be maintained for a period of time as a result of heightened risk of a security incident/threat; and, 4.4.3. Security Level 3. Exceptional - the level applying for the period of time when there is probable or imminent risk of a security incident although it may not be possible to identify the specific target and where further specific protective measures shall be maintained for such limited period of time. 4.5. Setting at Security Level 3 should be an exceptional measure applying only when it is credible that a security incident is probable or imminent. Security Level 3 should only be set for the duration of the identified security threat or actual security incident. While the security levels may change from Security Level 1, through Security Level 2 to Security Level 3, it is also possible that the security levels will change directly from Security Level 1 to Security Level 3. 4.6 At all times, the master of a covered ship has the ultimate responsibility for the safety and security of the ship. Even at Security Level 3 a master may seek clarification or amendment of instructions issued by those responding to a security incident, or threat thereof, if there are reasons to believe that compliance with any instruction may imperil the safety of the ship. 4.7 The CSO or the SSO should liaise at the earliest opportunity with the PFSO of the port facility the ship is intending to visit to establish the security level applying for that ship at the port facility. Having established contact with a ship, the PFSO should advise the ship of any subsequent change in the port facility’s security level and should provide the ship with any relevant security information. 4.8. While there may be circumstances when an individual ship may be operating at a higher security level than the port facility it is visiting, there will be no circumstances when a ship can have a lower security level than the port facility it is visiting. If a ship has a higher security level than the port facility it intends to use, the CSO or SSO should advise the PFSO without delay. The PFSO should undertake an assessment of the particular situation in consultation with the CSO or SSO and agree on appropriate security measures with the ship, which may include completion and signing of a Declaration of Security. 4.9. OTS should consider how information on changes in security levels should be promulgated and disseminated rapidly. The OTS may wish to use Navigational 8
  • 9. Telex (NAVTEX) messages or Notices to Mariners as the method for notifying such changes in security levels to the ship and to the CSO and SSO. Or, they may wish to consider other methods of communication that provide equivalent or better speed and coverage. 4.10. The OTS should establish means of notifying concerned PFSO of security levels in their respective port facilities, and of changes in such security levels. 4.11. The OTS should compile and maintain the contact details or a list of those who need to be informed of changes in security levels. Whereas the security level need not be regarded as being particularly sensitive, the underlying threat information may be highly sensitive. 4.12. The OTS should give careful consideration to the type and detail of the information conveyed and the method by which it is conveyed to an SSO, CSO and/or PFSO. Chapter 5. SHIP SECURITY ASSESSMENT GENERAL. 5.1. A Ship Security Assessment (SSA) shall be carried out for each Philippine- registered ship covered by the ISPS Code. The SSA is an essential and integral part of the process of developing and updating the Ship Security Plan. 5.2. The SSA shall be carried out by persons with appropriate skills to evaluate the security of a ship. The company security officer shall ensure that the SSA is undertaken by such persons. 5.3 A Recognized Security Organization (RSO) may carry out the ship security assessment of a specific ship. 5.4 The SSA shall include an on-scene security survey and contain at least the following elements: 5.4.1. Identification of existing security measures, procedures and operations; 5.4.2 Identification and evaluation of key ship board operations that it is important to protect; 5.4.3 Identification of possible threats to the key ship board operations and the likelihood of their occurrence, in order to establish and prioritize security measures; and 5.4.4 Identification of weaknesses, including human factors in the infrastructure, policies and procedures. 9
  • 10. 5.5. The Company Security Officer (CSO) shall be responsible for ensuring that a Ship Security Assessment (SSA) is carried out for each of the ships in the Company’s fleet covered by the ISPS Code. While the CSO need not necessarily personally undertake all the duties associated with the post, the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that they are properly performed remains with the individual CSO. 5.6. Prior to commencing the SSA, the CSO should ensure that advantage is taken of information available on the assessment of threat for the ports at which the ship will call or at which passengers embark and disembark and about the port facilities and their protective measures. The CSO should meet with appropriate persons on the ship and in the port facilities to discuss the purpose and methodology of the assessment. The CSO should follow any specific guidance offered by the Administration. 5.7. Those involved in the SSA should be able to draw up expert assistance in relation to: 5.7.1.

Existing security measures and procedures in effect, including inspection and, control procedures, identification systems, surveillance and monitoring equipment, personnel identification documents and communication, alarms, lighting, access control ad other appropriate systems. 5.9. The SSA should examine each identified point of access, including open weather decks, and evaluate its potential for use by individuals who might seek to breach security. This includes points of access available to individuals having legitimate access as well as those who seek to obtain unauthorized entry. 11
  • 12. 5.10. The SSA should consider the continuing relevance of the existing security measures and guidance, procedures and operations, under both routine and emergency conditions and should determine security guidance including: 5.10.1. The restricted areas; 5.10.2. The response procedures to fire or other emergency conditions; 5.10.3.

SHIP SECURITY PLAN GENERAL 6.1 Each ship shall carry onboard beginning 01 July 2004, a Ship Security Plan (SSP) duly approved by the Office for Transportation Security (OTS) or by an duly an authorized Recognized Security Organization (RSO) acting on its behalf. 6.2. The SSP shall be developed on the basis of a ship security assessment which shall form part of the submission to the OTS when approval of the SSP is being sought. 6.3. The SSP shall make provisions for the three (3) security levels and must clearly stipulate the security measures that should be taken at each security level. 6.4. The Company Security Officer (CSO) has the responsibility of ensuring that a Ship Security Plan (SSP) is prepared and submitted for approval. The content of each individual SSP should vary depending on the particular ship it covers. The ship security assessment (SSA) will have identified the particular features of the 14
  • 15. ship and the potential threats and vulnerabilities. The preparation of the SSP will require these features to be addressed in detail. 6.5. A Ship Security Plan (SSP) should: 6.5.1. Detail the organizational structure of security for the ship; 6.5.2. Detail the ship’s relationships with the Company, port facilities, other ships and relevant authorities with security responsibility; 6.5.3.

An Interim International Ship Security Certificate shall be valid for 6 months, or until the certificate is issued, whichever comes first, and may not be extended; 7.21. The OTS shall not issue a subsequent consecutive Interim International Ship Security Certificate to a ship if, in the judgment of the OTS or the recognized security organization, one of the purposes of the ship or a company in requesting such certificate is to avoid full compliance with chapter XI-2 of SOLAS 1974 and Part A of the ISPS Code beyond the period of the initial interim certificate as specified in paragraph 20. 7.22. For the purposes of regulation XI-2/9, SOLAS 1974, the OTS may, prior to accepting an Interim International Ship Security Certificate as a valid certificate, verify and ensure that the requirements have been met. 32
  • 33. Chapter 8. PORT FACILITY SECURITY ASSESSMENT GENERAL 8.1. A Port Facility Security Assessment (PFSA) shall be carried out on each port facility. The PFSA is fundamentally a risk analysis of all aspects of a port facility’s operation in order to determine which part or parts of the facility are more susceptible, and/or more likely, to be the target of attack. Security risk is a function of the threat of an attack coupled with the vulnerability of the target and the consequences of an attack. The assessment must include the following components: 8.1.1. The determination of the perceived threats to port installations and infrastructures; 8.1.2. Identification of potential vulnerabilities; and 8.1.3. Calculation of the consequences of possible incidents. 8.2. The PFSA shall be made the basis in developing (or updating) the Port Facility Security Plan, and shall be submitted together with the PFSP, as an integral part thereof, to the OTS for approval. 8.3. All submitted port facility security assessments shall be reviewed and verified by the OTS prior to approval. 8.4. If the OTS authorizes an RSO to review or verify compliance of the PFSA, that RSO should not be associated with any other RSO that prepared or assisted in the preparation of that assessment. 8.5. The persons carrying out the assessment should have appropriate skills to evaluate the security of the port facility, and should be able to acquire expert assistance in relation to: 8.5.1. Knowledge of current security threats and patterns; 8.5.2. Recognition and detection of weapons, dangerous substances and devices; 8.5.3. Recognition, on a non-discriminatory basis, of characteristics and behavioral patterns of persons who are likely to threaten security; 8.5.4. Techniques used to circumvent security measures; 8.5.5. Methods used to cause a security incident; 8.5.6. Effects of explosives on structures and port facility services; 8.5.7. Port facility security; 33
  • 34. 8.5.8. Port business practices; 8.5.9. Contingency planning, emergency preparedness and response; 8.5.10. Physical security measures, e.g. fences; 8.5.11. Radio and telecommunications systems, including computer systems and networks; 8.5.12. Transport and civil engineering; and, 8.5.13. Ship and port operations. 8.6. The PFSA should address the following elements within a port facility: 8.6.1. Physical security; 8.6.2. Structural integrity; 8.6.3. Personnel protection systems; 8.6.4. Procedural policies; 8.6.5. Radio and telecommunication systems, including computer systems and networks; 8.6.6. Relevant transportation infrastructure; 8.6.7. Utilities; and, 8.6.8. Other areas that may, if damaged or used for illicit observation, pose a risk to persons, property, or operations within the port facility. 8.7. The port facility security assessment shall include an on-scene security survey which shall cover the following elements: 8.7.1. Identification and evaluation of important assets and infrastructures that are important to protect; 8.7.2. Identification of possible threats to the assets and infrastructure and the likelihood and consequences of their occurrence, in order to establish and prioritize security measures; 8.7.3. Identification, selection and prioritization of countermeasures and procedural changes and their level of effectiveness in reducing vulnerability; and, 34
  • 35. 8.7.4. Identification of weaknesses, including human factors, in the infrastructure, policies and procedures; 8.8. The on-scene security survey shall also include examination and evaluation of: 8.8.1. Methods and procedures used to control access into the port/terminal and the designated restricted area/s including: 1. Inspection, control and monitoring of persons and carry on articles; and, 2. Inspection, control and monitoring of cargoes, equipment and baggage; 8.8.2. Methods and procedures used to safeguard cargoes and equipment held in storage within the port or terminal; 8.8.3. Each identified point of access to the port/terminal and restricted area/s for its potential use by individual who might be engaged in unlawful acts; and 8.8.4. Existing security measures under both normal and emergency conditions including: 1. Established safety procedures; 2. Deployment of security personnel to strategic posts/locations; 3. Restrictions or limitations on vehicle access to the port/terminal and restricted area/s; 4. The frequency and effectiveness of patrol by police/security personnel; 5. The level of supervision of personnel; 6. The security lock/key control; 7. Security communication, systems and procedures; 8. Security barriers; and, 9. Security lighting 35
  • 36. IDENTIFICATION AND EVALUATION OF IMPORTANT ASSETS AND INFRASTRUCTURE FOR PROTECTION 8.9. The identification and evaluation of important assets and infrastructure is a process through which the relative importance of structures and installations to the functioning of the port facility can be established. This identification and evaluation process is important because it provides a basis for focusing mitigation strategies on those assets and structures, which it is more important to protect from a security incident. This process should take into account potential loss of life, the economic significance of the port, symbolic value, and the presence of Government installations. 8.10. Identification and evaluation of assets and infrastructure should be used to prioritize their relative importance for protection. The primary concern should be avoidance of death or injury. It is also important to consider whether the port facility, structure or installation can continue to function without the asset, and the extent to which rapid re-establishment of normal functioning is possible. 8.11. Assets and infrastructure that should be considered important to protect may include: 8.11.1. Accesses, entrances, approaches, and anchorages, maneuvering and berthing areas; 8.11.2. Cargo facilities, terminals, storage areas, and cargo handling equipment; 8.11.3. Systems such as electrical distribution systems, radio and telecommunication systems and computer systems and networks; 8.11.4. Port vessel traffic management systems and aids to navigation; 8.11.5. Power plants, cargo transfer piping and water supplies; 8.11.6. Bridges, railways, roads; 8.11.7. Port service vessels, including pilot boats, tugs, lighters, etc.; 8.11.8. Security and surveillance equipment and systems; and, 8.11.9. The waters adjacent to the port facility. 8.12. The clear identification of assets and infrastructure is essential to the evaluation of the port facility’s security requirements, the prioritization of protective measures and decisions concerning the allocation of resource to better protect the port facility. The process may involve consultation with the relevant authorities relating to structures adjacent to the port facility which could cause 36
  • 37. damage within the facility or be used for the purpose of causing damage to the facility or for illicit observation of the facility or for diverting attention. IDENTIFICATION OF POSSIBLE THREATS TO ASSETS AND INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF ITS OCCURRENCE FOR ESTABLISHING AND PRIORITIZING SECURITY MEASURES 8.13. Possible acts that could threaten the security of assets and infrastructure, and the methods of carrying out those acts, should be identified to evaluate the vulnerability of a given asset or location to a security incident, and to establish and prioritize security requirements to enable planning and resource allocations. Identification and evaluation of each potential act and its method should be based on various factors, including threat assessments by Government agencies. By identifying and assessing threats, those conducting the assessment do not have to rely on worst-case scenarios to guide planning and resource allocations. 8.14. The PFSA should include an assessment undertaken in consultation with the relevant national security organizations to determine: 8.14.1. Any particular aspects of the port facility, including the vessel traffic using the facility, which make it likely to be the target of an attack; 8.14.2. The likely consequences in terms of loss of life, damage to property and economic disruption, including disruption to transport systems, of an attack on, or at, the port facility; 8.14.3. The capability and intent of those likely to mount such an attack; and, 8.14.4. The possible type, or types of attack. In producing an overall assessment of the level of risk against which security measures have to be developed, 8.15. The PFSA should consider all possible threats, which may include the following types of security incidents: 8.15.1. Damage to, or destruction of, the port facility or of the ship, e.g. by explosive devices, arson, sabotage or vandalism; 8.15.2. Hijacking or seizure of the ship or of persons on board; 8.15.3. Tampering with cargo, essential ship equipment or systems or ship’s stores; 8.15.4. Unauthorized access or use, including presence of stowaways; 37
  • 38. 8.15.5. Smuggling weapons or equipment, including weapons of mass destruction; 8.15.6. Use of the ship to carry those intending to cause a security incident and their equipment; 8.15.7. Use of the ship itself as a weapon or as a means to cause damage or destruction; 8.15.8. Blockage of port entrances, locks, approaches, etc; and, 8.15.9. Nuclear, biological and chemical attack. 8.16. The process should involve consultation with the relevant authorities relating to structures adjacent to the port facility, which could cause damage within the facility or be used for the purpose of causing damage to the facility or for illicit observation of the facility or for diverting attention. IDENTIFICATION, SELECTION AND PRIORITIZATION OF COUNTERMEASURES AND PROCEDURAL CHANGES AND THEIR LEVEL OF EFFECTIVENESS IN REDUCING VULNERABLITY 8.17. The identification and prioritization of countermeasures is designed to ensure that the most effective security measures are employed to reduce the vulnerability of a port facility or ship/port interface to the possible threats. 8.18. Security measures should be selected on the basis of factors such as whether they reduce the probability of an attack and should be evaluated using information that includes: 8.18.1. Security surveys, inspections and audits; 8.18.2. Consultation with port facility owners and operators and owners/operators of adjacent structures if appropriate; 8.18.3. Historical information on security incidents; and, 8.18.4. Operations within the port facility. IDENTIFICATION OF VULNERABILITIES 8.19. Identification of vulnerabilities in physical structures, personnel protection systems, processes or other areas that may lead to a security incident can be used to establish options to eliminate or mitigate those vulnerabilities. For example, an analysis might reveal vulnerabilities in a port facility’s security systems or unprotected infrastructure such as water supplies, bridges, etc. that could be resolved through physical measures, e.g. permanent barriers, alarms, surveillance equipment, etc. 38
  • 39. 8.20. Identification of vulnerabilities should include consideration of: 8.20.1 Waterside and shore-side access to the port facility and ships berthing at the facility; 8.20.2. Structural integrity of the piers, facilities and associated structures; 8.20.3. Existing security measures and procedures including identification systems; 8.20.4. Existing security measures and procedures relating to port services and utilities; 8.20.5. Measures to protect radio and telecommunication equipment, port services and utilities, including computer systems and networks; 8.20.6. Adjacent areas that may be exploited during, or for, an attack; 8.20.7. Existing agreements with private security companies providing water-side/ shore-side security services; 8.20.8. Any conflicting policies between safety and security measures and procedures; 8.20.9. Any conflicting port facility and security duty assignments; 8.20.10. Any enforcement and personnel constraints; 8.20.11. Any deficiencies identified during daily operation, following incidents or alerts, the report of security concerns, the exercise of control measures, audits, etc. 8.21. The OTS may allow a port facility security assessment to cover more than one port facility if the operator, location, operation, equipment and design of these port facilities are similar. In allowing such an arrangement, the OTS shall communicate to the IMO the particulars thereof. 8.22. Upon completion of the port facility security assessment, the persons/organization who carried out the assessment shall prepare a report consisting of a summary of how the assessment was conducted, a description of each vulnerability found during the assessment and a description of counter measures that could be used to address each vulnerability. The report shall be protected from unauthorized access or disclosure. 8.23. The PFSA shall be periodically reviewed and updated by the PFSO, taking account of changing threats and/or minor changes in the port facility, and shall always be reviewed and updated when major changes to the port facility take place. Resulting modifications or updates from such review shall be submitted to, further reviewed, and approved by the OTS. 39
  • 40. DOCUMENTATION CONTROL 8.24. The PFSA Report shall be the exclusive and confidential property of the Port Authority or Port Owner/Operator and shall be considered a controlled document. Access to the PFSA Report shall be allowed only to duly authorized personnel, and shall be subject to document control procedure and disclosure agreement in case the PFSA Report is transferred/transmitted from one location to another. Chapter 9. PORT FACILITY SECURITY PLAN GENERAL 9.1. Each port facility shall have a Port Facility Security Plan (PFSP) approved by the OTS beginning 01 July 2004. 9.2. The PFSP shall be developed by the persons or organizations that carried out the port facility security assessment and maintained on the basis of such security assessment. 9.3. Preparation of the PFSP is the responsibility of the Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO). While the PFSO need not necessarily personally undertake all the duties associated with the post the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that they are properly performed remains with the individual PFSO. 9.4. Preparation of an effective PFSP will rest on a thorough assessment of all issues that relate to the security of the port facility, including, in particular, a thorough appreciation of the physical and operational characteristics of the individual port facility. 9.5. The content of each individual PFSP should vary depending on the particular circumstances of the port facility, or facilities, it covers. The PFSA shall have identified the particular features of the port facility, and of the potential security risks, that have led to the need to appoint a PFSO and to prepare a PFSP. The preparation of the PFSP will require these features, and other local or national security considerations to be addressed in the PFSP, and for appropriate security measures to be established so as to minimize the likelihood of a breach of security and the consequences of potential risks. Advice on the preparation and content of a PFSP may be obtained from the OTS or the PPA. 9.6. The PFSP shall address, at least, the following: 9.6.1. Measures designed to prevent weapons or any other dangerous substances and devices intended for use against persons, ships or ports, and the carriage of which is not authorized, from being introduced in the port facility or on board a ship; 40
  • 41. 9.6.2. Measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to the port, to ships moored at the facility, and to restricted areas of the facility; 9.6.3. Procedures for responding to security threats or breaches of security, including provisions for maintaining critical operations of the port, or ship/port interface; 9.6.4. Procedures for responding to any security instructions the Government may give at security level 3; 9.6.5. Procedures for evacuation in case of security threats or breaches of security; 9.6.6. Duties of port personnel assigned security responsibilities and of other facility personnel on security aspects and the performance measures needed to allow their individual effectiveness to be assessed; 9.6.7. Procedures for interfacing with ship security activities; 9.6.8. Procedures for the periodic review of the plan and updating; 9.6.9. Procedures for reporting security incidents; 9.6.10. Identification of the port security officer, including 24-hour contact details; 9.6.11. Measures to ensure the security of the information contained in the plan; 9.6.12. Measures designed to ensure effective security of cargo and the cargo handling equipment at the port facility; 9.6.13. Procedures for regular review and/or audit of the PFSP and of its amendments in response to experience or changing circumstances, including but not limited to, procedures to assess the continuing effectiveness of security measures, procedures and equipment, including identification of, and response to, equipment failure or malfunction; 9.6.14. Procedures for responding in case the ship security alert system of a ship at the port facility has been activated; 9.6.15. Communication systems to allow effective and continuous communication between port facility security personnel and ships in port and, when appropriate, with national or local authorities with security responsibilities; 41
