3 SA NAVY HY DRO GRAPHIC OF FICE AND SAS PROTEA (Front Cover) The SA Navy has con ducted hy dro graphic sur vey ing since 1922 when HMS CRO ZIER was con verted into the first HMSAS PRO TEA, which car ried out ster ling ser vice as a hy dro graphic sur vey ves sel un til she was laid up in April She was fol lowed by the con verted Flower class cor vette HMS ROCKROSE, also named PRO TEA. SAS NA TAL, a Loch class frig ate, was con verted in 1957 and she was sup ported by the for mer Ford class Sea ward De fence Boat SAS HAERLEM, which un der took the in shore work. In 1972 the Navy ac quired their first pur pose built sur vey ves sel, the mod ern Hecla class SAS PRO TEA. She has be come a fa mil iar fig - ure along our coast line and, in 1992, rep re sented South Af rica at the In ter na tional Hy dro graphic Or gani sa tion (IHO) Con fer ence in Mo - naco. South Af rica has been a mem ber of the IHO since The SA Navy s own Hy dro graphic Of fice was es tab lished in Sit u ated at Silvermine in the West ern Cape, it is here that the na tional de fence as well as the na tional and in ter na tional needs and ob li ga tions for hydrography, are met.

13 COASTAL NAVWARNINGS : SOUTH AF RI CAN RE GION 9. Coastal navwarnings are is sued by the Hy drog ra pher from time to time for broad cast by Coast Ra dio Sta tions. De tails of this ser vice are to be found in SA List of Light and Ra dio Sig nals (SAN HO-1). The warn ings are in Eng lish and are drafted in the for mat spec i fied in IHO/IMO Guide to Draft ing Ra dio Nav i ga tional Warn ings for the WWNWS. The warn ings are num bered con sec u tively through out the cal en dar year, com menc ing with 001 at 0001 UTC on 1 Jan u ary. 10. NAVAREA VII warn ings and a sum mary of warn ings are also pub lished and up dated on a daily ba sis dur ing work ing hours. It can be viewed on the website: LOCAL NAVWARNINGS 11. Har bour Mas ters of South Af ri can ports are re spon si ble for the is sue of Lo cal navwarnings per tain ing to MSI within the port lim its of their re spec tive ports. Where it is con sid ered that such warn ings are of sig nif i cance out side these port lim its, the Hy drog ra pher, SA Navy, may is sue NAVAREA VII or Coastal navwarnings in lieu, in which case the Lo cal navwarning is then cancelled. NAVTEX 12. NAVTEX is an in ter na tional au to mated di rect-print ing service for the promulgation of navigational and meteorological warnings and ur - gent in for ma tion to ships. A fully op er a tional NAVTEX ser vice ex ists in the RSA and Namibia, de tails of which are given in the SA List of Lights and Ra dio Sig nals (SAN HO-1), Sec tion 3. SAFETYNET 13. SafetyNET is a ser vice of INMARSAT 's en hanced group call sys tem (EGC) de signed spe cif i cally for pro mul ga tion of MSI as a part of the GMDSS. SafetyNET pro vides ship ping with nav i ga tional and meteorological warnings, meteorological forecasts, shore-to-ship distress alerts, and other ur gent in for ma tion. At pres ent me te o ro logical information pertaining to NAVAREA VII and NAVAREA VII warnings are trans mit ted via this ser vice. De tails are given in the SA List of Lights and Ra dio Signals (SAN HO-1). SOURCES FOR NAVIGATION WARNINGS 14. From the above it is clear that the nav i ga tion warn ing ser vice pro vided by the Hy drog ra pher is de pend ent to a large ex tent upon the pro vi - sion of timely and ac cu rate source in for ma tion that must be forth com ing from the mar i time com mu nity it self. Mas ters, Port and other Mar i - time Au thor i ties are re quested to send all such in for ma tion as rap idly as pos si ble. In ad di tion to postal meth ods, the fol low ing ad di tional com mu ni ca tion fa cil i ties are avail able: No tices to Mar i ners Web site : Ur gent nav i ga tional information (24 Hour Service) : Telex : (ANS BACK: NAVY SA) Fax : navcomcen.cape@sanavy.co.za Other nav i ga tional in for ma tion ( Mon - Fri) : Fax : Phone : / hydrosan@iafrica.com Gen eral in for ma tion ( Mon - Fri) : Phone : Cap tain A.

14 SOUTH AF RI CAN NO TICE TO MAR I NERS NO TICE NO 4 OF 2014 For mer No tice 4/2013 is cancelled. RE PORTS OF SHOALS OB TAINED BY ECHO SOUND ING Instructions regarding rendering 1. Now that all ships are fit ted with echo-sound ing equip ment, nu mer ous re ports of shoal sound ing are be ing re ceived by the Hy drog ra pher. A large pro por tion of these re ports are of lit tle value as in suf fi cient in for ma tion is for warded with them. 2. False soundings may be ob tained from cor rectly ad justed E/S sets due to one of the fol low ing causes: a. The re turn ing echo be ing re ceived af ter the trans mis sion in ter val has been com pleted once or per haps twice, e.g. with a ro tary type E/S set hav ing a max i mum scale read ing of 600 metres, a read ing on the trace of 50 metres might in fact be a sound ing of 50 or 650 or even 1250 metres. (In the case of E/S sets fit ted with trans mit ter ON/OFF switches, such doubts can eas ily be re solved. By break ing the trans mis sion cir cuit, with the set still run ning, and then re-mak ing it, it is only nec es sary to note the num ber of sub se quent sty lus rev o lu tions oc cur ring be fore the echo re-appears.) b. Dense shoals of fish or lay ers of plank ton which some times give an echo com pletely mask ing that from the bot tom. Such a layer is usu ally known as a deep scat ter ing layer and is of ten found to rise to wards the sur face at dusk and, af ter re main ing dur ing the night close to the sur face, de scends again at dawn. The deep scat ter ing layer is fre quently en coun tered at or near the edge of the con ti nen tal shelf and is fre quently mis taken for shoal wa ter. c. Lay ers of wa ter of dif fer ent den sity from that of the sur round ing wa ter. d. Strong tidal streams or ed dies with solid par ti cles in sus pen sion which may give feath ery ech oes. e. It is pos si ble in the more pow er ful types of E/S sets now be ing de vel oped that dou ble ech oes may be ob tained even in depths of sev eral hun dred metres. The sec ond echo caused by the re bound ing ul tra sonic waves will ap pear at twice the depth of true echo. Care should be taken when phas ing and us ing the ON/OFF switch, as de scribed above, that in fact the true echo is be ing re - corded. The sec ond echo is in vari ably weaker than the first and can be faded by turn ing down the sen si tiv ity of the re ceiver. 3. When un ex pected shoal soundings are ob tained in wa ters where the charted depth gives no in di ca tion, even though dis col oured wa ter may be seen, the only cer tain method of con firm ing their ex is tence is by tak ing a cast with the lead. Where, how ever, the charted depth is no where more than the scale read ing of the set and the shoal is seen to rise from the bot tom on the trace, pro vided speed and set ting of the set is cor rect, the shoal sound ing may be ac cepted con di tion ally. 4. When re ports of shoal sound ing are re ceived in the Hy dro graphic Of fice, they are care fully con sid ered in the light of ac com pa ny ing or other ev i dence be fore any ac tion is taken to amend charts. Un less re ports are con firmed by the cast of the lead, chart ac tion is usu ally with held un til the area can be ex am ined by a sur vey ing ves sel. In the past much time and ef fort has been wasted search ing for non-ex is tent shoals. 5. In or der that the Hy drog ra pher can make full use of re ports of soundings, the Echo Trace should al ways be for warded, to gether with Form HO-16 (Hy dro graphic Note), which ap pears at the end of this pub li ca tion. Nav i gat ing Of fi cers are re quested to note the fol low ing points re - gard ing es sen tial de tails: a. Mark the trace each time a fix is ob tained by draw ing a line along the curved edge of the scale, tak ing care not to foul the sty lus arm mean while. b. Num ber the fix and in sert the time. (The time is im por tant since the height of the tide must be found in or der to ob tain the cor rect depth.) c. In sert the re corded depth of all peak soundings. d. On com ple tion of soundings, and be fore roll ing up the pa per, draw in the bot tom trace and trans mis sion line and dry the pa per, pref er a bly in a dim light if a wet pa per ma chine is used. e. Mark any change of phase con spic u ously. f. In sert the make and type of echo-sound ing ma chine. g. It is rec om mended that an in del i ble pen cil or ball-point pen should be used in all writ ing on the trace. 6. It is im por tant to note that the draught of the ship should be the same as the depth of the trans mis sion line. If the lat ter is set to zero a note to this ef fect should be made on the trace, giv ing the draught of the ship. 7. In sets which have two op er at ing speeds (e.g. me tre or me tre x 10) the trans mis sion line must be sep a rately ad justed to show the cor rect scale read ing in each speed. 8. At ten tion is drawn to Ad mi ralty Pub li ca tion THE MAR I NER'S HAND BOOK (NP ECHO SOUND INGS). 9

18 SOUTH AF RI CAN NO TICE TO MAR I NERS NO 6 OF 2014 For mer No tice No 6/2013 is cancelled. SOUTH AF RICA, Oil Pol lu tion - Ob ser va tion and Re port ing 1. Since 1 Oc to ber 1985 the De part ment of En vi ron men tal Af fairs and Tour ism (DEA&T) has been re spon si ble for mat ters re lat ing to the com bat ing of oil pol lu tion with the De part ment of Trans port (DOT) retaining responsibility for prevention. This arrangement applied to func - tions in terms of the Pre ven tion and Com bat ing of Pol lu tion of the Sea by Oil Act 6 of 1981 (as it was orig i nally called). With the es tab lish ment of the South Af ri can Mar i time Safety Au thor ity (SAMSA) on 1 April 1998, the ad min is tra tion of this Act [now called the Ma rine Pol lu tion (Con trol and Civil Li a bil ity) Act 6 of 1981] was trans ferred to SAMSA in terms of the South Af ri can Mar i time Safety Au thor ity Act 5 of How ever, sec tion 52 of the lat ter Act con tin ues DEA&T s re spon si bil ity for com bat ing oil pol lu tion. 2. SAMSA, DEA (De part ment of En vi ron men tal Af fairs) and Smit Amandla Ma rine (the man ag ers of the standby tug Smit Amandla ) are all con cerned with the pre ven tion, con tain ment and clean ing up of oil spills at sea. These or ga ni za tions should be in formed as soon as pos si ble when ever there is an oil spill or a threat of an oil spill. 3. Oil spills and threat ened spills should be re ported im me di ately to the near est SAMSA Prin ci pal Of fi cer, fail ing which (and in the fol low ing or der) SAMSA s Re gional Man ag ers, SAMSA s Chief Ex ec u tive Of fi cer (CEO), any of the other SAMSA of fi cials, the DEA of fi cials, or the man ag ers of Smit Amandla Ma rine. 4. For ships at sea, the South Af ri can coastal mar i time ra dio sta tions will con nect the re spon si ble ship s of fi cer to the South Af ri can Mar i time Rescue Co or di na tion Cen tre (MRCC), which will alert the appropriate Principal Officer. 5. A ship in port can re port to the duty of fi cer in the con trol tower of the Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity (TNPA), who will for ward the com mu ni ca tion to the Prin ci pal Of fi cer of the port. Al ter na tively, the ship, or the ship s agent, can com mu ni cate di rectly with the Prin ci pal Of - fi cer. 6. The SAMSA of fi cial re ceiv ing the ini tial re port will im me di ately place the or gani sa tion on alert by in form ing the re spon si ble per sons at DEA and Smit Amandla Ma rine. He or she will then in form SAMSA s Re gional Man ager about the in ci dent and any ac tion taken. The Re - gional Man ager will in form higher au thor ity, as ap pro pri ate, and, if nec es sary, ac ti vate SAMSA s Ca su alty Re sponse Unit. 7. If for any rea son the above pro ce dure fails, any per son in the or gani sa tions men tioned in para graph 6 should carry for ward the pro ce dure by alerting other relevant persons and organisations. 8. Agree ment has been reached with TELKOM that ra dio tele phone or ra dio te leg ra phy re ports of this na ture passed through South Af ri can Coast Ra dio Sta tions, de pend ing on the lo cal ity, ra dio re ports may be ad dressed to The Prin ci pal Of fi cer of SAMSA via port con trol (VHF Chan nel 16) at the fol low ing ports: Rich ards Bay, Durban, East Lon don, Port Eliz a beth, Mossel Bay, Cape Town and Saldanha Bay. 9. As the pre ven tion of the pol lu tion of the sea by oil is of in ter na tional im por tance it is con sid ered that ves sels on pas sage along the coast line of the Re pub lic of South Af rica or ly ing in an an chor age off the var i ous ports can be of in valu able as sis tance to the De part ment by re port ing: a. Oil slicks sighted; b. Oil ac ci dently dis charged; c. Oil dis charged in the in ter ests of Safety of Life at Sea; d. Ves sels in dis tress likely to cause oil pol lu tion. 10. Ar ti cle 8 and Pro to col I of MARPOL 73/78 es tab lishes re port ing re quire ments for pol lu tion in ci dents. Re ports should con tain as much of the fol low ing in for ma tion as pos si ble: a. Name of the per son re port ing the in ci dent; b. Tele phone num ber (work/home) or other means of con tact; c. Date and time of ob ser va tion; d. De tails of ob ser va tion; e. Lo ca tion (e.g. lat i tude and lon gi tude or the po si tion rel a tive to the coast line); f. Source and cause of pol lu tion (e.g. name and type of ves sel, col li sion or ground ing); g. Type and es ti mated quan tity of oil spilled and the po ten tial and prob a bil ity of fur ther pol lu tion; h. Weather and sea con di tions; i. Ac tion taken or in tended to re spond to the in ci dent. 11. The fol low ing is a guide as to the ap pear ance of oil on the sea and the method of re port ing such oil: a. Ef fect of oil on ap pear ance of the wa ter: i. Con di tion 1 :Barely vis i ble un der most favourable light conditions. ii. iii. iv. Con di tion 2 :Vis i ble as a sil very sheen on the wa ter sur face. Con di tion 3 :First trace of col our may be ob served. Con di tion 4 :Bright bands of col our. 13

19 v. Con di tion 5 :Colours be gin to turn dull nat u ral to col our of oil. vi. Con di tion 6 :Colours nat u ral to col our of oil. Note: Con di tions 4, 5 and 6 would re quire im me di ate ac tion by the Oil Pol lu tion Or gani sa tion. b. In for ma tion re quired in the text of a re port of an oil sight ing: i. Con di tion as stated above. ii. iii. iv. Po si tion. Ex tent of oil slick. Weather or wind di rec tion. v. Ves sel in volved. 12. Thus a typ i cal mes sage would read as fol lows: CAPT I.M.

South Af ri can war ships fly the In ter na tional Code Group NE2 to de note that sub ma rines, which may be sub merged, are in the vi cin ity. Other ves sels are cau tioned to steer a course so as to give a wide berth to any ves sel fly ing this sig nal. If, for any rea son, it is nec es sary to ap - proach her, a good look out must be kept for sub ma rines, whose pres ence may be in di cated only by their peri scopes or snort masts show ing above wa ter. Pyrotechnics and Smoke Candles 3. The fol low ing sig nals are used by sub merged sub ma rines: a. White smoke marker (with flare) float ing on sea sur face, in di cates po si tion in re sponse to a re quest from a ship or as re quired. (See Diagram 1). b. Green para chute flare (fired 130 metres into the air) used to in di cate the po si tion from which a prac tice tor pedo has been fired. All ves sels are re quested to keep clear as the sub ma rine may want to sur face af ter the fir ing. (See Diagram 2). c. Red para chute flare (fired 130 metres into the air), which may be ac com pa nied by smoke can dles re peated as of ten as pos si ble, mean - Keep clear. I am car ry ing out an emer gency sur fac ing pro ce dure. Do not stop pro pel lers. Clear the area im me di ately. Stand by to ren der as sis tance. (See Diagram 3). Note: If the red parachute flare is sighted and the sub ma rine does not sur face within 5 min utes, it should be as sumed that the sub ma rine is in dis tress and has sunk. An im me di ate at tempt should be made to fix the po si tion in which the sig nal was sighted, af ter which ac tion in ac cor - dance with Part IV should be taken. The flare and marker sig nals will float for one hour then self scut tle and sink. d. Two white smoke sig nals re leased 3 min utes apart mean - Keep clear. I am pre par ing to sur face.

The over all ar range ments of sub ma rines lights are there fore un usual and may well give the im pres sion of be ing mark edly smaller and shorter ves sels than they are. Their vul ner a bil ity to col li sion when pro ceed ing on the sur face dic tates par tic u lar cau tion when ap proach ing them. Part III - COL LI SIONS WITH SUB MA RINES 9. Most sub ma rine losses dur ing peace time have been caused by col li sion with other ves sels. Sub ma rines, with their low buoy ancy fac tor, if in volved in a col li sion, may sink or be un able to sur face be cause of their buoy ancy (bal last) tanks hav ing been rup tured. 10. Be cause of their size and low pro file, sur faced sub ma rines are of ten dif fi cult to see. Sub ma rines op er at ing at peri scope depth are ob vi ously even more dif fi cult to de tect. 11. Col li sion or sus pected col li sion, with a sub ma rine must be re ported by the fast est means avail able to the near est Coast Ra dio Sta tion. The po si tion of the col li sion to gether with the es ti mated cur rent, wind force and sea state, as well as any other rel e vant par tic u lars, must be in cluded in the re port. 12. The re port should be sent by ra dio us ing Emer gency Clear ance Pro ce dure on dis tress or nor mal fre quen cies. The mes sage can be passed di - rect to NAVCOMCENCAPE, via a Coast Ra dio Sta tion or har bour ra dio net work, which ever is con sid ered the faster, as speed of han dling is es sen tial. The mes sage will then be sent to the Sub ma rine Op er a tions Au thor ity (SUBOPAUTH), Pri vate Bag X1, Si mon's Town, 7995, or, sig - nals ad dress, Force Prep a ra tion Op er a tion Cen tre, tele phone (Cape Town) /4129, fax (Cape Town) Part IV - SUNKEN SUB MA RINES 13. A bot tomed sub ma rine which is un able to sur face will try to in di cate its po si tion by the fol low ing meth ods: a. Re leas ing two life rafts, which are equipped with EPIRBS, as soon as the in ci dent oc curs. The life rafts are de scribed in Part V. b. On the ap proach of sur face ves sels, and at reg u lar in ter vals, by fir ing the smoke sig nals de scribed in Par 3 un der Part 1. c. Pump ing out oil fuel or lu bri cat ing oil. d. Blow ing out air. e. Ac ti vat ing her So nar Bea con. The So nar Bea con is de scribed in Part V. f. Trans mit ting on her un der wa ter tele phone. The un der wa ter tele phone is de scribed in Part V. 14. It is vi tally im por tant that sur face ships re frain from dis charg ing any oil or de bris which might ap pear to have come from a sub ma rine. Search ing ships and air craft can waste valu able time in ves ti gat ing such false con tacts. 15. Some sub ma rine py ro tech nics may carry mes sages. These may be re cov ered as soon as they have fin ished burn ing and the con tents of mes sages to gether with the po si tion and time of re cov ery of the py ro tech nic must be passed to : a. Any Na val ves sel in the vi cin ity, or b. NAVCOMCENCAPE, Pri vate Bag X1, TOKAI, 7966, tele phone (Cape Town) , , to navcomcen.cape@sanavy.co.za or c. COMFLEET, Na val Base, Si mon's Town or d. the near est branch of the South Af ri can Po lice Ser vice. Mes sages should be passed by the most rapid means of com mu ni ca tion avail able. 16. South Af ri can sub ma rines are fit ted with two life rafts, each fit ted with its own EPIRB which can be re leased from in side in case of emer - gency or if the sub ma rine is un able to sur face. 17. In any sub ma rine ac ci dent, time is the most vi tal fac tor af fect ing the chances of res cue of sur vi vors, and, as the sight ing of life rafts may be the first in dica tion that an ac ci dent has in fact oc curred, it is vi tal that no time should be lost in tak ing ac tion. 18. The sight ing of any smoke sig nals and/or life rafts an swer ing the de scrip tion should be re ported at once to the Na val au thor i ties or a Port Of fice. If a ves sel is un able to es tab lish com mu ni ca tion with out leav ing the vi cin ity of the sunken sub ma rine, she should stand by to res cue sur vi vors and not leave the scene of the ac ci dent. 19. South Af ri can sub ma rines are equipped with smoke sig nals and life rafts. It is there fore of the ut most im por tance that the po si tion, to gether with the es ti mated cur rent and the strength and di rec tion of the wind at the po si tion, and the time of first sight ing of the smoke sig nals and/or life rafts be ac cu rately and speed ily re ported to any of the au thor i ties men tioned in para 15 above. 20. At any time af ter a sub ma rine ac ci dent sur vi vors may start at tempt ing to es cape. Cur rent pol icy dic tates that sur vi vors will wait be fore es - caping un til : a. res cue ves sels are known to be stand ing by, or b. con di tions in side the sub ma rine de te ri o rate to such an ex tent that an at tempt at es cape must be made. 22

28 c. it is de ter mined whether or not a DSRV res cue is pos si ble. The DSRV is de scribed in Part V. 21. It should be noted that the air sup ply in a sunken sub ma rine may last for sev eral days, in which case sit u a tion b. may not arise for a con sid er - able time af ter the sink ing. How ever, if the sub ma rine is badly dam aged, sur vi vors may have to make an im me di ate es cape at tempt. Any ship find ing smoke sig nals and/or life rafts an swer ing the de scrip tion should stand by well clear of it ready to pick up sur vi vors who will prob a bly sur face at a dis tance from it de pend ing on the ef fect of wind and cur rent. On ar rival on the sur face men may be ex hausted or ill, and the pres ence of a boat al ready low ered is very de sir able should weather con di tions per mit. Some men may re quire a de com pres sion cham ber and the Na val au thor i ties will try to get such a cham ber to the scene as soon as pos si ble. 22. In or der that those trapped in the sub ma rine shall be made aware that help is at hand, na val ves sels drop small charges into the sea which can be heard from in side the sub ma rine. It is vi tal that they are not dropped too close since men in the pro cess of mak ing as cents are par tic u larly vul ner a ble to un der wa ter ex plo sions, and may eas ily be fa tally in jured. A dis tance of 0.25 miles is con sid ered safe. If no small charges are avail able, the run ning of an echo sounder or the bang ing of the outer skin of the ship s hull with a ham mer from a po si tion be low the wa ter-line is likely to be heard in the sub ma rine, and such bang ing and/or sound ing should be car ried out at fre quent in ter vals. 23. Sub ma rines may at any time re lease py ro tech nic signals which, on reach ing the sur face, burn with flames and/or smoke, thus serv ing to mark the po si tion. They are likely to ac knowl edge sound sig nals by this means. 24. Sum ming up, the aims of a Sub ma rine Res cue Op er a tion are: a. To fix the ex act po si tion of the sub ma rine. b. To get a ship stand ing by to pick up sur vi vors, if prac ti ca ble, with boats al ready low ered. c. To get med i cal as sis tance to sur vi vors picked up. d. To get a diver s de com pres sion cham ber to the scene in case this is re quired by those se ri ously ill af ter be ing ex posed to great pressure. e. To in form the trapped men that help is at hand. f. To get a DSRV to the scene of the sub ma rine in ci dent. 25. There is a Na val or ga ni za tion de signed to ful fill these aims, which is al ways kept at in stant readi ness for ac tion. It is clear, how ever, that any ship may at any time find ev i dence of a sub ma rine di sas ter, and if she takes prompt and cor rect ac tion as de scribed above, she may be in a po si tion to play a vi tal part. Part V - SUB MA RINE RES CUE DEVICES 26. The sub ma rine is fit ted with two life rafts, which can be re leased from in board in case of an emer gency (See Diagram 4). They have the fol low ing char ac ter is tics: a. The life rafts pop out of pres sure proof GRP con tain ers. These GRP con tain ers will be vis i ble on the sur face. b. Each life raft can carry 25 per sons. c. The life raft is teth ered to the sub ma rine with 600m of rope. d. Each life raft is fit ted with: i. EPIRB. The Emer gency Po si tion In di cat ing Ra dio Bea con is teth ered to the life raft and is ac ti vated as soon as it co mes into con tact with the sea wa ter. The EPIRB trans mits a sig nal of war bling notes on 406 MHz. Ships hear ing this sig nal should re port the fact giv ing their po si tion and if pos si ble, an in di ca tion of sig nal strength. ii. iii. SART. The Search and Res cue Ra dar Tran sponder is used to lo cate sur vival craft or dis tressed ves sels by cre at ing a se ries of dots on a res cu ing ship s ra dar dis play. The re sponse fre quency is GHz. Por ta ble VHF ra dio. 27. The So nar Bea con serves to alert res cue au thor i ties to the sub ma rines po si tion and to pro vide a hom ing sig nal for the DSRV. It op er ates at a fre quency of 3,5 and 12 khz. 28. The sub ma rine is fit ted with an un der wa ter tele phone, which is ca pa ble of voice and Morse com mu ni ca tions. 29. The DSRV (deep sea res cue ves sel) is a mini sub mers ible ca pa ble of res cu ing per son nel from the sub ma rine should the sub ma rine have bot tomed or have fouled un der wa ter (See Diagram 5). The sub ma rine's for ward hatch is con fig ured to re ceive the DSRV skirt and form a wa - ter tight con nec tion. This al lows the for ward hatch to be opened and for the trapped per son nel to be trans ferred to the DSRV. 23

The in tro duc tion of an Air Ser vice be tween South Af rica and Aus tra lia in No vem ber 1957, to gether with the Search and Res cue (SAR) ob - li ga tions ac cepted by South Af rica as a mem ber of the In ter na tional Civil Avi a tion Or gani sa tion (ICAO) re sulted in the De part ment of Trans - port, on 1 Oc to ber 1958, as sum ing re spon si bil ity for the co-or di na tion of South Af ri can Search and Res cue ser vices. A com mit tee known as The Per ma nent Com mit tee for the Co-or di na tion of Air/Sea Res cue Ser vices was es tab lished shortly there af ter by the Sec re tary for Trans - port. 2. The terms of the In ter na tional Con ven tion for the Safety of Life at Sea (LON DON) 1974 (SOLAS), to which South Af rica is a sig na tory, are en acted in Sched ule 2 of the Mer chant Ship ping Act (Act 57/51 as amended). This con ven tion has placed fur ther SAR ob li ga tions upon the South Af ri can Gov ern ment. Fur ther more, South Af ri can reg is tered mer chant ship ping, in terms of this en act ment, be came le gally obliged to as sist per sons in dis tress at sea. 3. In 1979, in or der to con form with the man ner in which other na tional SAR or gani sa tions are named, the South Af ri can Search and Res cue Or gani sa tion was es tab lished. It is known as the SASAR Or gani sa tion. THE FUNC TIONS OF THE SASAR OR GANI SA TION 4. The pri mary func tion of search and res cue op er a tions in the South ern Af ri can area is to search for, to as sist and, if nec es sary, res cue: a. Sur vi vors of air craft ac ci dents or forced land ings. b. Crew and Pas sen gers of Ves sels in dis tress and Sur vi vors of mar i time ac ci dents. 5. SASAR is also charged with co-ordinating the ef forts of var i ous Gov ern ment De part ments, vol un tary or gani sa tions and, pri vate air craft and ship ping com pa nies in the field of search and res cue and, with for mu lat ing pol icy and pro ce dures. COMPOSITION OF SASAR 6. The Ex ec u tive Com mit tee of SASAR is made up of rep re sen ta tives from those Gov ern ment De part ments which are able to con trib ute ser - vices and/or fa cil i ties for use by SASAR. These in clude Trans port, SAMSA, South Af ri can Air ways (SAA), De fence, Po lice, Dept of Pro vin - cial and Lo cal Government (DPLG), Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity and TELKOM. The Di rec tor-gen eral : Trans port ap points the Chair man for the Ex ec u tive Com mit tee and pro vides sec retarial services to the Executive Committee and its sub-committees. 7. In ad di tion to the Ex ec u tive Com mit tee two sub-com mittees exist: a. SASAR - Avi a tion Sub-com mit tee: This con sists of rep re sen ta tives of the SAMSA, SAA, South Af ri can Air Force (SAAF), DPLG and TELKOM. b. SASAR - Ma rine Sub-com mit tee: This con sists of rep re sen ta tives of SAMSA, Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity, SAAF, South Af ri can Navy (SAN), Na tional Sea Res cue In sti tute (NSRI), DPLG, Ti tan Aviation and Smit Amandla Ma rine. SOUTH AFRICAN AREA OF SAR RESPONSIBILITY 8. The RSA s area of re spon si bil ity for SAR em braces the sea and land ar eas as in di cated in Diagram 1 on the fol low ing page, in clud ing the in de pend ent states sit u ated therein, and cor re sponds to that as laid down by the In ter na tional Civil Avi a tion Or gani sa tion (ICAO). SAR REGIONS AND ASSOCIATED RESCUE CO-ORDINATION CENTRES 9. The South ern Af ri can area is di vided into two SAR Re gions (SRRs) with the con trol of SAR op er a tions in each re gion be ing cen tered at Rescue Co-or di na tion Cen tres (RCCs) namely (see Diagram 1): a. Inland SRR - Aero nau ti cal Res cue Co-or dination Centre (ARCC), located at O.R. Tambo International Airport; and b. Mar i time SRR - Mar i time Res cue Co-or di na tion Cen tre (MRCC), lo cated at Plattekloof, near Cape Town. Note : Cape Town MRCC is pri mar ily con cerned with ocean SAR mis sions and air searches over the sea. 10. For mar i time pur poses SAR mis sions may be classed as: a. OCEAN : An in ci dent in which only ships and long range air craft may be avail able al though, in the more re mote ocean ar eas, only ships may be avail able. b. COASTAL : In ci dents in which some or all of the fol low ing may be avail able to as sist: ships, air craft, he li cop ters and shore based life sav ing fa cil i ties. 28

There fore, any dis tress sig nal in a re gion must be re layed to the Har bour Master of that sub-area. His of fice will re lay the mes sage on to the MRCC. 14. As the above sub-ar eas are large, each pri mary co-ordinating Har bour Mas ter has within his zone one or more Sec ond ary Au thor i ties to whom SAR re spon si bil i ties can be del e gated. This del e ga tion of re spon si bil ity may only take place af ter the co-ordinating Har bour Mas ter has con sulted the Sec ond ary Au thor ity con cerned and is sat is fied that the lat ter is more suited to han dle the par tic u lar SAR in ci dent. 15. It must be re mem bered that fi nite sea ward bound aries to the above sub-ar eas are dif fi cult to lay down. Close li ai son be tween Har bour Mas - ters and Cape Town MRCC is there fore done on a reg u lar ba sis. AIR CRAFT, VES SELS, VE HI CLES AND EQUIP MENT AVAIL ABLE FOR SEARCH AND RES CUE PUR POSES 16. Air craft : The South Af ri can Air Force, South Af ri can Air ways and Ti tan Aviation pro vide suit able air craft on re quest. 17. Ves sels Owned or Char tered by the State : The De part ment of En vi ron ment and Tour ism (DEAT) has two oil pol lu tion com bat ves sels, which is op er ated on their be half by Smit Amandla Ma rine. These ves sels pa trol be tween Saldanha Bay and Rich ards Bay. They can be called upon by the Har bour Mas ter(s) con cerned, or through Smit Amandla Marine - Spe cial Ships Di vi sion. Their daily po si tions are sup plied to Cape Town MRCC. 18. The SA Navy will pro vide suit able ves sels and per son nel where and when re quired. Re quests for as sis tance may be ini ti ated by the Har - bour Mas ter(s) through the Cape Town MRCC or lo cal Na val Area Com mander. 19. Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity will pro vide tugs and other suit able ves sels on the in struc tions of the Har bour Mas ter(s) con cerned. 20. Deep Sea Res cue Tugs : Two large, fast (20 knot) res cue tugs are op er ated by Smit Amandla Ma rine. These craft are ide ally suited for OCEAN type mis sions due to their ex ten sive com mu ni ca tions equip ment, hos pi tal fa cil i ties and speed. They are also well suited for COASTAL mis sions. Sur vi vor ca pac ity is Na tional Sea Res cue In sti tute (NSRI) Sta tions : The NSRI op er ates Sta tions at the fol low ing lo ca tions:- Hartbeespoort Dam, Vic to ria Lake, Lam bert's Bay, Club Mykonos, Ta ble Bay, Bakoven, Hout Bay, Kommetjie, Si mon s Town, Strandfontein, Gordon's Bay, Hermanus, Agulhas, Mossel Bay, Still Bay, Witsand, Yzerfontein, Bea con Bay, Wil der ness, Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, St Fran cis Bay, Port Eliz a beth, Port Al fred, East Lon don, Port St Johns, Port Ed ward, Shelly Beach, Durban and Rich ards Bay. Aux il iary Sta tions at St Hel ena Bay, Melkbosstrand, Cof fee Bay, Kleinmond and Struisbaai. In ad di tion there is one in land op er a tion sta tion on the Vaal Dam at Deneysville. 22. NSRI Fleet : The fleet con sists of some 50 boats vary ing from 13 me tre ves sels used for deep sea op er a tions, to 3 me tre in shore res cue ves - sels. The ma jor ity of these are ei ther 5 or 7 me tre semi rigid in flat able and 8 me tre lon ger range craft. 23. NSRI Coast Watch ing Aux il iary : The NSRI Sta tions are as sisted by vol un teer Coast Watch ers who re port on in ci dents ob served off shore. 24. Other Ves sels : Shipmasters are obliged by cus tom, as well as Na tional and In ter na tional Stat ute, to ren der as sis tance to per sons in dis tress at sea. In such cases as sist ing ves sels are ex pected to re port their in ten tions and ac tions to the near est Har bour Mas ter via a Coastal Ra dio Sta - tion. THE NA TIONAL SEA RES CUE IN STI TUTE 25. The South Af ri can So ci ety of Mas ter Mar i ners, in 1966, brought into be ing an in shore sea res cue ser vice sim i lar to that of the Royal Na - tional Life boat In sti tu tion of Great Brit ain. This ser vice was called the South Af ri can In shore Sea Res cue Ser vice. 26. In June 1967 the name was for mally changed to the Na tional Sea Res cue In sti tute of South Af rica (NSRI). The In sti tute s Patron is the Pres i dent. 27. The NSRI is of fi cially rec og nized in ter na tion ally and by SAMSA as an organization undertaking Search and Rescue. Operationally it co - mes un der the con trol of the SASAR Or ga ni za tion through the Har bour Masters of the sea ar eas con cerned. It op er ates in con junc tion with other means of search and res cue at the Har bour Masters dis posal. 28. The Head quar ters are in Cape Town. The NSRI pro vides an in shore res cue ser vice from Saldanha Bay to Rich ards Bay. The po si tions of NSRI Sta tions are in di cated on SAN charts by the NSRI sym bol. In ad di tion to launches and boats, the NSRI op er ates offroad type ve hi cles fit ted with ra dio and res cue equip ment. 29. The main ob jec tives for which the NSRI was formed are briefly: a. To pro vide ef fi cient life-sav ing craft at var i ous lo ca tions in spe cific zones along the coast of RSA. b. To es tab lish cen tres at such lo ca tions for the train ing of crews ca pa ble of man ning the life-sav ing craft at all times. c. To en cour age all boat own ers to ac cept ad e quate safety stan dards and to ad here to rec og nized rules of con duct and sea man ship. 30. All NSRI boats are equipped with VHF ra dios and some with HF ra dios. They are con trolled by the NSRI s own shore-based ra dio trans - mit ters op er at ing on a fre quency ex clu sive to NSRI which en sures un in ter rupted con tact dur ing search and res cue mis sions. For joint op er a - tions other fre quen cies are used as ap pro pri ate. 31. NSRI crews are all un paid vol un teers but are ad e quately in sured at the In sti tute s ex pense. 32. Whilst the main cen tres of boat ing ac tiv ity are ad e quately cov ered other cen tres will be cov ered in due course when the need has been es - tab lished. 33.

Mar i ners should be aware of the need to avoid an chor ing, trawl ing, fish ing, dredg ing, drill ing or car ry ing out any ac tiv ity close to sub ma - rine ca bles and pipe lines. Dam age to tele com mu ni ca tion cables can lead to extensive disruption of international communications, whilst damage to power ca bles will in ter rupt elec tric ity sup ply. Pipe lines may con tain flam ma ble oil or gas un der pres sure; a ves sel caus ing dam age to a pipe line could face an im me di ate haz ard ei ther by loss of buoy ancy due to gas aer ated wa ter or by fire/ex plo sion, and re sult in an en vi ron men - tal haz ard. Such dam age to a sub ma rine ca ble or pipe line can lead to pros e cu tion. 2. If a sub ma rine ca ble is fouled whilst an chor ing, fish ing or trawl ing, ev ery ef fort should be made to dis en gage from the ca ble by nor mal meth ods, with out caus ing dam age. If these ef forts fail, the an chor/gear/trawl should be slipped and aban doned. Par tic u lar care should be ex er - cised should a ves sel s trawl/fish ing gear foul a ca ble and raise it from the sea bed. This may lead to a cap size sit u a tion due to the ex ces sive load. Be fore any at tempt to slip or cut gear from the ca ble is made, the ca ble should first be low ered to the sea bed. 3. SUB MA RINE CA BLES SHOULD NEVER BE CUT, as this is likely to en dan ger life or cause se ri ous in jury. All power ca bles and most telecom mu ni ca tion ca bles carry high volt ages. 4. Sub ma rine pipe lines are not al ways bur ied and their pres ence may ef fec tively re duce the charted depth by as much as 2 metres. Where pipe lines are close to gether, only one may be charted. Pipe lines may span across sea bed un du la tions; the size and po si tions of such spans are not con stant and may vary due to tide and wave ac tion. It is pos si ble for fish ing gear to be come snagged un der a pipe line so that it is ir re cov er - able, which could pres ent a se ri ous haz ard to the fish ing ves sel. In the event that mas ters or skip pers sus pect they have fouled a pipe line with gear or an chors, they should not place ex ces sive weight on their gear, which could dam age the pipe line and en dan ger their ves sel and crew. 5. In ci dents in volv ing the foul ing of sub ma rine ca bles or pipelines should be reported immediately to the appropriate authorities. In most cases this will be the near est Coastal Ra dio Sta tion, who should be con tacted and ad vised as to the na ture of the prob lem and the po si tion of the vessel. 6. For more in for ma tion on sub ma rine ca bles and pipe lines, including related regulations and charting policy, refer to South African Sailing Di rec tions Vol ume I (SAN HO-21).

Di a monds were found on the Namibian coast in the Lüderitz area in In 1961 spe cially equipped barges started pro cess ing gravel re - cov ered from the sea-bed. A con sid er able num ber of ves sels, some of whom are very large, can be en coun tered work ing fairly close in shore from Sad dle Hill (Ap prox i mate po si tion 25 55' S ' E ) to Nee dle Point (Ap prox i mate po si tion ' S ' E). 2. Mar i ners are warned of pos si ble ex is tence of lost min ing gear, an chors and float ing ropes which may be en coun tered within the area de mar - cated on the rel e vant charts. Ex treme cau tion must be ex er cised when transiting and es pe cially trawl ing through this area. 3. Ma rine Min ing Ves sels (Dredg ers)(mmvs) are nor mally moored by a four an chors spread. These large an chors may be marked by un lit buoys. These ves sels move up to five ca bles within the an chor spread and mar i ners are ad vised to keep at least 1500 metres clear of MMVs. 4.

This No tice spec i fies South Af rica's re quire ments for pre-arrival and pre-en try information; under the Merchant Shipping (Maritime Secu rity) Reg u la tions, TO MAS TERS AND OP ER A TORS OF IN TER NA TION ALLY TRAD ING SHIPS BOUND FOR SOUTH AF RI CAN PORTS, THEIR AGENTS, ASABOSA, HAR BOUR MAS TERS, CAPE TOWN RA DIO, THE MAR I TIME RES CUE CO-OR DI NA TION CEN TRE (MRCC), AND OTHER AF FECTED PER SONS Sum mary This ma rine no tice sets out South Af rica s re quire ments for pre-ar rival and pre-en try in for ma tion un der the Mer chant Ship ping (Mar i time Se cu rity) Regulations, It re places and con sol i dates ma rine no - tices 19 and 27 of 2004, and gives guid ance on how to en sure the re ceipt of a pre-ar rival or pre-en try in - for ma tion re port by the MRCC. 1. In ac cor dance with reg u la tion XI-2/9 of the In ter na tional Con ven tion for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974, and para graph B/4.39 of the In ter - na tional Ship and Port Fa cil ity Se cu rity (ISPS) Code, the Di rec tor-gen eral: Trans port has, un der the Merchant Shipping (Maritime Security) Regu la tions, 2004, de ter mined the fol low ing re quire ments for pre-arrival and pre-en try in for ma tion. The full of fi cial text of the de ter mi na - tion is pub lished by Gov ern ment Ga zette No of 10 De cem ber Pre-ar rival in for ma tion is re quired from for eign pas sen ger ships, cargo ships of 500 or more gross ton nage and mo bile off shore drill ing units (MO DUs) on in ter na tional voy ages bound for South Af ri can ports. 3. Pre-en try in for ma tion is re quired from for eign-go ing South Af ri can pas sen ger ships, cargo ships of 500 or more gross ton nage and MO DUs bound for a South Af ri can port. 4. These re quire ments do not ap ply to fish ing ves sels, ves sels used solely for sport or rec re ation, gov ern ment ships en gaged solely on non-com mer cial voy ages, coast ing ships, and ships transiting South Af rica s ter ri to rial wa ters, in clud ing ships call ing off-lim its at a South Af ri can port for the trans fer of stores, crew, etc. How ever, for ships call ing off-lim its vol un tary com pli ance is en cour aged and may avoid de lay in the event, for ex am ple, of trans fer op er a tions hav ing to be done within port lim its be cause of ad verse weather con di tions. 5. The for mat and con tent of the pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port is given in the An nex. Mas ters are ad vised to ex er cise care when draft ing re ports, par tic u larly when us ing a sin gle / or dou ble //. The re port com prises groups of words and num bers iden ti fied by a pre fix, with a dou ble // used to sep a rate the groups and a sin gle / used to sep a rate words or num bers within a group. 6. The re port must be made at least 96 hours be fore the ship s ex pected time of ar rival (ETA) at the first South Af ri can port. If the ship is ar riv ing from a for eign port where the voy age time be tween ports is less than 96 hours, the mas ter must en sure that the pre-ar - rival/pre-en try in for ma tion is sent in com pli ance with the 96 hour re quire ment and up dated when the ship clears the last for eign port. 7. An amended re port must be made if: 1. the ETA date for the ship changes. How ever, a change in time on the same day need not be re ported; or 2. there has been a ship to ship or ship/port in ter face af ter the orig i nal re port was made; or 3. any other in for ma tion in the orig i nal re port changes. 8. Re ports are not re quired from ships mak ing voy ages be tween South Af ri can ports (i.e. coast ing). How ever, if a ship makes a voy age to a port in an other coun try (e.g. to Maputo Mo zam bique or Walvis Bay Namibia), a pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port must be made be - fore any sub se quent call at a South Af ri can port. Also, when a ship is coast ing be tween South Af ri can ports and in ter faces with an other ship be tween ports, the mas ter must trans mit a pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port as soon as pos si ble but at least 5 hours be fore the ship s ETA. 9. The Mar i time Res cue Co or di na tion Cen tre (MRCC) in Cape Town is the first point of con tact for pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion. The pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port must be in Eng lish and in writ ing and is to be trans mit ted to the MRCC via Cape Town Ra dio. The MRCC will only ac cept re ports di rectly from the ship via Cape Town Ra dio; no re ports by voice com mu ni ca tion will be ac cepted. 10. The pre ferred means of ship to shore com mu ni ca tion for pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re ports is an to maritimeradio@ixmail.co.za. If Inmarsat C is used, the ship s of fi cer can con firm re ceipt by se lect ing the op tion re quest de liv ery con fir - ma tion on the ship s ter mi nal. A ship s agent can also con firm re ceipt 6 hours af ter trans mis sion by con tact ing Cape Town Ra dio on the help line Cape Town Ra dio will ac cept a for warded mes sage from a ship s agent, pro vided the agent con firms re ceipt of the with Cape Town Ra dio Cape Town Ra dio will not for ward an mes sage to the MRCC with out this con fir ma tion. When is used, re ports must not be sent as at tach ments but must be in the body text be cause the Cape Town Ra dio IT sys tem strips at tach - ments from s. Cape Town Ra dio s ad dress is maritimeradio@ixmail.co.za. 56

62 12. Pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re quired by this no tice for maritime security purposes is similar to port entry information required by the Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity (TNPA) for berth plan ning pur poses. How ever, the for mat and use of this in for ma tion dif fers con sid er ably and mas ters and agents are ad vised to en sure that in for ma tion for the MRCC is not con fused with that re quired by the TNPA. 13. The MRCC does not se cu rity-clear ships. Its func tion is to check pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re ports to en sure rel e vance and com plete ness. The MRCC will com mu ni cate with a ship, via Cape Town Ra dio, if it has any que ries about the ship s re port. The MRCC forwards checked re ports to the Mar i time Se cu rity Co-or dination Centre (MSCC), which is responsible for informing Port Security Offi - cers (PSO) about ships se cu rity clear ance sta tus. Ships agents should there fore ob tain se cu rity clear ance in for ma tion from the rel e - vant PSO di rectly. 14. Mas ters are cau tioned that fail ure to trans mit timeously com plete and cor rectly for mat ted pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion could re sult in de lays and, in ap pro pri ate cases, de nial of port en try (see Ma rine No tice No. 12 of 2008). Ships whose mas ters re fuse to give pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion will be de nied port en try. 15. In the in ter ests of safety all ships are en cour aged to par tic i pate in the South Af ri can Ship Re port ing Sys tem (SAFREP). This sys tem as sists in search and res cue by pro vid ing up-to-date ship ping in for ma tion in the event of a mar i time ca su alty. It is mod elled on IMO Res - o lu tion A.851(20) re gard ing gen eral prin ci ples for ship re port ing re quire ments and makes use of move ment re ports, sub mit ted to Cape Town Ra dio, from ships within the South Af ri can search and res cue re gion.

Re ports are not re quired from ships mak ing voy ages be tween South Af ri can ports (i.e. coast ing). If a ship makes a voy age to a port in an - other coun try (e.g. Maputo - Mo zam bique or Walvis Bay - Namibia), a pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port must be made be fore any sub se quent call at a South Af ri can port. Also, when a ship is coast ing be tween South Af ri can ports and in ter faces with an other ship be tween ports, the mas ter must trans mit a pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re port as soon as pos si ble, but at least 5 hours be fore the ship s ETA. 9.

The MRCC will only ac cept re ports di rectly from the ship via Cape Town Ra dio; no re ports by voice com mu ni ca tion will be ac cepted. The role of the MRCC is to scru ti nise re ports for cor rect ness and com plete ness. 13. The MRCC does not se cu rity-clear ships. Its func tion is to check pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re ports to en sure rel e vance and com - plete ness. If MRCC has any que ries re gard ing the ship s re port, it will com mu ni cate with the ship via Cape Town Ra dio.

Cape Town Ra dio will not for ward an mes sage to the MRCC with out this con fir ma tion. When is used, re - ports must not be sent as at tach ments, but must be in the body text be cause the Cape Town Ra dio IT sys tem strips at tach - ments from s. Cape Town Ra dio s ad dress is maritimeradio@ixmail.co.za. 16. Pre-ar rival/pre-en try in for ma tion re quired by this no tice for mar i time se cu rity pur poses is sim i lar to port en try in for ma tion re quired by the Transnet Na tional Ports Au thor ity (TNPA) for berth plan ning pur poses. How ever, the for mat and use of this in for ma tion dif fers con sid - er ably. Mas ters and agents are ad vised to en sure that in for ma tion for the MRCC is not con fused with that re quired by the TNPA. 17.

Mas ters, own ers and op er a tors are re minded that it is an of fence in terms of the Ma rine Traf fic Act, 1981, to an chor or stop a ship (for re - pairs or oth er wise) in South Af rica s ter ri to rial or in ter nal wa ters out side port lim its with out per mis sion from SAMSA. Per mis sion to an chor or stop may be ob tained by sub mit ting to the MRCC a pre-ar rival in for ma tion re port to gether with a re quest to an chor or stop. The MRCC will for ward the re quest to the lo cal Prin ci pal Of fi cer for de ci sion. 24. A ship that has to an chor or stop in an emer gency must in form SAMSA as soon as pos si ble, but at least within one hour af ter an chor ing or stop ping. Mas ters are re minded that SAMSA has the au thor ity, even in an emer gency, to set con di tions for an chor ing or stop ping. Source: SAMSA Tel: Fax: mrcc.ct@samsa.org.za 62
