We have issued a new marine notice on the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Revised guidelines for the reduction of underwater radiated noise from shipping to address adverse impacts on marine life.
The revised IMO guidelines provide updated information on approaches applicable to designers, shipbuilders, ship operators and other stakeholders to reduce the underwater radiated noise (URN) of ships. They are intended to assist relevant stakeholders in establishing relevant mechanisms and programmes through which URN reduction efforts can be achieved.
