The document represents the culmination of international collaboration, incorporating expertise from leading maritime nations including Australia and Canada, ensuring globally applicable standards for marine environmental protection.Action Lists and Decision-Making Frameworks
At the core of this publication are the action lists - carefully curated sets of chemical substances, biological responses, and material characteristics used to screen dredged materials. These lists enable systematic assessment of potential impacts on human health and marine ecosystems. Complementing these are action levels, which establish clear decision thresholds determining whether sediments meet criteria for sea disposal. This dual-system approach provides a robust, standardized methodology for environmental risk assessment in marine operations.International Standards for Sustainable Marine Practices
