COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2019/1744

of 17 September 2019

on technical specifications for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation and repealing Regulation (EU) No 164/2010

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Directive 2005/44/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 September 2005 on harmonised river information services (RIS) on inland waterways in the Community (1), and in particular point (b) of Article 5(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Electronic reporting in inland navigation should contribute to the safety and efficiency of inland navigation, by enabling electronic data interchange for reporting purposes to and between competent authorities and to facilitate electronic data interchange among the parties involved in inland waterway transport. Electronic reporting should help to avoid multiple reporting of the same data to competent authorities and other parties in the transport chain.

(2) The development of harmonised river information services (RIS) laid down in Directive 2005/44/EC requires the establishment of technical specifications, including, inter alia, on electronic ship reporting.

(3) The technical specifications for electronic ship reporting laid down in Commission Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 (2) specify the messages, data items, codes and references to be used in electronic reporting for enabling specific services and functions of RIS in line with Directive 2005/44/EC.

(4) Technical specifications for electronic ship reporting should take due account of the technological progress and the experiences gained from their application, including the introduction of mandatory electronic reporting requirements on major rivers in Europe. For that reason, the technical specifications defined in Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 should be revised and clarified.

(5) The revised technical specifications should take due account of the latest internationally adopted standards, guidelines and experiences gained as a result of their application, such as the relevant standards by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE), the Central Commission for the Navigation of the Rhine (CCNR) and other international bodies. In addition, the specific provisions of Directive (EU) 2016/1629 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2032 (4) should be considered.

(6) The revised technical specifications should take due account of the requirement of compatibility with other modes of transport, in particular maritime transport. This should be achieved by making use of internationally standardised notification messages, accepted code lists and classifications and following guidelines as defined by the Protect (5) group.

(7) Pursuant to Article 12(2) of Directive 2005/44/EC technical specifications should enter into force immediately after their publication and Member States should apply those specifications not later than 30 months after entry into force.

(8) Taking into account the extent of required changes, Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 should be repealed.

(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 11 of Directive 2005/44/EC,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The technical specifications for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation shall be as set out in the Annex.

Article 2

Regulation (EU) No 164/2010 is repealed.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the

Appendix 1

(Dangerous) goods reporting (IFTDGN) — ERINOT

1. PART I: MESSAGE IMPLEMENTATION MANUAL CONVENTION

1.1 Introduction

These technical specifications define the structure of four messages for electronic ship reporting in inland navigation, based on the United Nations rules for Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce and Transport (UN/EDIFACT) (1) message structure and customised, where required, for the purpose of inland navigation.

In the case that electronic ship reporting in inland navigation is required by national or international law, these technical specifications shall be applied.

The exact use of the messages, data elements and codes are defined in the Appendices (Message Implementation Manuals) in order to ensure a common understanding and usage of the messages.

The messages are:

(Dangerous) goods reporting message (IFTDGN) — ERINOT

Passenger and crew lists message (PAXLST)

ERINOT response and receipt message (APERAK) — ERIRSP

Berth management port notification message (BERMAN)

For sharing of information the use of XML technology is another possibility apart from the UN/EDIFACT standards.

1.2. UN/EDIFACT message structure

The message structure is based on ISO 9735.

UN/EDIFACT messages are composed of segments. The structure of a message is described in a branching diagram indicating the position and the mutual relationship of the segments and segment groups.

For each segment data elements are defined: some data elements are combined to form composite data elements. A segment and a data element within a segment are either mandatory (M) or conditional (C). Mandatory segments and/or data elements contain important data for a receiving application and shall be filled with valid data.

Each message starts with two or three segments, the ‘interchange header’ (UNB) and the ‘message header’ (UNH). Where required, also the ‘service string advice’ (UNA) is used as a first segment to define which character sets are used in the message. Each message finishes with the segments ‘message trailer’ (UNT) and ‘interchange trailer’ (UNZ). Thus, each message is contained in one interchange, and an interchange contains only one single message.

1.3. Introduction to message types

As mentioned in section 1.1, the four message types are:

(Dangerous) goods reporting message (IFTDGN) — ERINOT

Passenger and crew lists message (PAXLST)

ERINOT response and receipt message (APERAK) — ERIRSP

Berth management port notification message (BERMAN)

In addition, messages can fulfill the following functions:

— new message (identifier ‘9’);

— modification of message (identifier ‘5’);

— cancellation of message (identifier ‘1’);

— end of voyage (identifier ‘22’);

— interruption of voyage (identifier ‘150’);

— restart of voyage (identifier ‘151’).

1.3.1. ERINOT

The ERI notification message (ERINOT) shall be used for the reporting of voyage related information and of information on dangerous and non-dangerous cargo carried on-board vessels sailing on inland waterways. The ERINOT message is a specific use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message. For the data and codes contained in the message applications based on these message specifications, use has been made of the UN Directory D98B.

The ERINOT message encompasses the following types:

— transport notification from vessel to authority (identifier ‘VES’), from ship to shore;

— transport notification from carrier to authority (identifier ‘CAR’), from shore to shore;

— passage notification (identifier ‘PAS’), from authority to authority.

1.3.2. PAXLST

The PAXLST message is based on the UN/EDIFACT message PAXLST. It shall be used for the exchange of data in inland navigation between the captain/skipper or carrier and designated authorities such as customs, immigration, police or terminals falling under the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, as defined in Regulation (EC) No 725/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2).

The message shall be also used to transfer passenger/crew data from a designated authority in the country of departure to the appropriate authorities in the country of arrival of the means of transport.

1.3.3. ERIRSP

The ERI response message (ERIRSP) is derived from the UN/EDIFACT APERAK message. It may be generated by the system of the designated authority. The response to a ‘modification’ or a ‘cancellation’ contains information whether or not the ‘modification’ or ‘cancellation’ has been processed by the receiving system.

1.3.4. BERMAN

The Berth Management (BERMAN) message combines the pre-arrival notification, respectively general declaration, into one single notification which is based on the EDIFACT message BERMAN from the UN/EDIFACT D04B directory.

The BERMAN message shall be sent by vessels sailing on inland waterways before arriving at or departing from a berth or a port and provides information about the time of arrival and the services required to ensure a prompt handling, to support procedures and to facilitate controls.

2. PART II: CODES AND REFERENCES

2.1. Introduction

Codes and references, as defined in this Part, shall be used in electronic ship reporting for inland navigation. The use of codes and references serves the purpose of unambiguousness: it eliminates the possible misinterpretation and facilitates the translation of messages into other languages.

Therefore the usage of codes and references is mandatory for the data elements indicated in the message implementation manuals. Those codes and references are also available electronically in the European Reference Data Management System (ERDMS) operated by the Commission.

Those codes and references shall be used whenever data is interchanged between various computer applications and between parties using different languages, even beyond the message types in the subject of this Annex.

Appendix 1 (Dangerous) Goods Reporting (IFTDGN) — ERINOT

1. ERI NOTIFICATION MESSAGE

The ERI notification message (ERINOT) is a specific use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message as it has been developed within the PROTECT organisation. The ERINOT message is based on EDIFACT directory 98.B and Protect version 1.0.

The segment table of ERINOT message is depicted in chapter 1.4. The branching diagram of the ERINOT message is depicted in chapter 1.5

To ensure the usage of the message also under special circumstances such as a convoy of ships, some extra qualifiers have been introduced for the RFF segments in the TDT group.

1.1 Field of application

The ERI notification message (ERINOT)shall be used by skippers and on behalf of skippers by transport operators and agents for the reporting of dangerous and non-dangerous cargo carried by inland waterway vessels.

The message supports the implementation — by means of EDI — of the following reporting needs:

— applicable police regulations either on Member States level or locally (eg. specific requirements in specific ports);

— reporting requirements set by river commissions (eg. on the Rhine set by CCNR);

— goods reporting for statistics purposes (Member States level or Eurostat).

1.2 Principles

The ERINOT message is a specific standard implementation and use of the UN/EDIFACT ‘International Forwarding and Transport Dangerous Goods Notification (IFTDGN)’ message such as has been developed within the PROTECT seaports organisation.

This standard message implementation guideline has been accepted by the IMO for the reporting of dangerous goods to authorities. It has been designated as the message from the party responsible to report ‘dangerous’ goods to the authority performing the control and checks on conformance with the legal requirements. The message is conveying information on the ‘dangerous’ goods being loaded, discharged or in transit relating to a means of transport.

Where reporting is mandatory and if technically feasible, an ERI notification message is to be composed and sent to the competent authority for each inland waterway transport.

However all vessels are invited to report electronically to the competent authorities whenever possible. Where available, this may be done through a Single Window (1) to come to the envisioned reduction of procedures.

The notification message based on this standard message can be depicted as follows:

‘ERI (Electronic Reporting International) Notification Message’ with the following types:

— transport notification from vessel to authority from ship to shore;

— transport notification from carrier to authority from shore to shore;

— passage notification from authority to authority.
