New Craft Risk Management Standard for vesselsFriday 3 Nov 2023 Biosecurity New Zealand has issued a new Craft Risk Management Standard for Vessels.This change applies to logging ships arriving in New Zealand and the requirements they will need to meet. The new standard contains both the requirements from the Craft Risk Management Standard Biofouling on Vessels Arriving to New Zealand (2018) and the requirements from the old Craft Risk Management Standard Vessels (2018). The requirements have been reviewed and updated to ensure they remain fit for purpose. The key changes include: - New minimum reporting requirements for vessel biofouling inspections; - The number of days a short-stay vessel can stay in New Zealand has increased to 28 days; - A new clause for cruise vessel management; - Changes to risk periods for species of the Lymantria complex to align with changes to international regulations; - Simplification of the allowable biofouling thresholds.
