25 4. Other Key Factors 4.2 Upcoming Regulation Ballast Water Management System Ballast Water Ballast water is the water used to fill tanks around cargo holds in order to ensure a ship s stability on water. Ballast Water Management Convention (Source : Transport Canada) The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ship s Ballast Water and Sediments (Ballast Water Management Convention) 2004, is an international maritime treaty which requires Signatory flag states to ensure that ships flagged by them comply with standards and procedures for the management and control of ship s ballast water and sediments. The Convention aims to prevent the spread of harmful aquatic organisms from one region to another and halt damage to the marine environment from ballast water discharge. 24

26 4.
