Hazardous and Noxious Substances (HNS), if released, may endanger human life, the environment and property. Though much is written and practiced in regard to oil spills, the nature of HNS spills could be significantly different in the responses applied and is reflected in the IMO OPRC - HNS Protocol of 2000. Use of industry guidelines in response methods and techniques together with examples drawn from case studies will guide towards further learning in this interest. The intended course participants will be Port and Harbor Officials, ship's officers and emergency response staff from the marine industry. Course members who satisfactorily complete the course are issued with a certificate of attendance.
