Ship to Ship Transfers

In June I attended a meeting with Fife Council about Ship to Ship transfers of oil in the Forth.

A summary of the meeting is here.

Today we find that the Minister is more interested in money than safeguarding the environment, by ensuring that transfers take place in harbour waters. The view of KIMO is that these transfers should only ever take place in a harbour with full anti-pollution protection, and never in the open sea.
