Liner Industry Praises IMO for Action on Container Weight Verification

        The World Shipping Council (WSC) congratulates the Dangerous Goods, Solid Cargo and Containers (DSC) Sub-committee of the International Maritime organization (IMO) for today approving proposed changes to the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) convention that will require verification of container weights before loaded containers are placed aboard ships. Misdeclared container weights have been a long-standing problem for the transportation industry and for governments as they present safety hazards for ships, their crews, and other cargo on board, workers in the port facilities handling containers, and on roads.

班轮业赞扬IMO批准集装箱重量申报行动
 
       今天，WSC（世界船运委员会）祝贺国际海事组织(IMO)危险品、固体货物和集装箱分委会(DSC)批准修改海上人命安全公约（SOLAS)，即加入了装船前需要验证装载集装箱重量的条款。集装箱货物重量错误申报对运输业和政府而言是一个长期存在的问题。错误申报的集装箱重量对于船只、船员、船上其他货物、在港口设施以及路上处理集装箱的工作人员而言都有安全威胁。
