3 MPA is introducing an electronic-applications system for entry to the
Restricted Areas, as part of efforts to streamline and improve our electronic-services.
With effect from 2 July 2018, harbour craft providing services in the Restricted Areas
are to submit the applications electronically via MARINET to MPA’s Port Security
Unit for approval. Applicants may choose, at the point of submitting their applications,
whether to receive MPA’s notification on the outcome of their applications either via
SMS or email. The system will also allow printing of the approved applications.
4 Applications into the Restricted Areas are to be made on a per trip basis
(“Single Entry”), unless the vessel has prior approval for multiple trips (“Multiple
Entries”) for any of the following purposes:
a. To carry out project works under the relevant Port Marine Notices (PMN);
b. To provide tug/ mooring services;
c. To carry out contract work/projects on a daily basis; or
d. To carry out hydrographic surveys and diving operations.
5 Vessels making applications for Multiple Entries are required to provide the
following supporting documents in PDF version, as applicable, to MPA:
a. Copy of the applicable PMN for project works approved under the PMN;
b. An official letter based on the applicant’s letterhead, detailing the list of craft
to be deployed on a daily basis, and the period during which the contract
work/projects are to be performed, along with the names of all tug, mooring
and diving service providers; or
c. Permits from the Hydrographic Department to conduct hydrographic
surveys at location/s within the Restricted Area.
6 Hard copy applications will only be accepted in the event that the MARINET
system is down. Hard copy applications must be made using the application form
enclosed in Appendix 4 and sent to MPA’s Port Security Unit via facsimile number
(+65) 6222 4080.
7 All applications, whether electronic or in hard copies, shall be submitted at
least 2 hours before the vessel departs from the pier.
8 Any person who enters a Restricted Area without the Port Master’s
approval in contravention of his/her direction, may if convicted under section 50 of
the MPA Act, be fined up to $5,000 and, in the case of a continuing offence, to be
liable for additional fines up to $500 for every day or part thereof during which
he/she willfully continues to disobey such direction.
