amendment is to take effect unless the
MSC allows a shorter period. The MSC
will approve or disapprove the proposed
amendment in accordance with § 104.410
of this part.
(3) Nothing in this section should be
construed as limiting the vessel owner
or operator from the timely implementation of such additional security
measures not enumerated in the approved VSP as necessary to address exigent security situations. In such
cases, the owner or operator must notify the MSC by the most rapid means
practicable as to the nature of the additional measures, the circumstances
that prompted these additional measures, and the period of time these additional measures are expected to be in
place.
(4) If the owner or operator has
changed, the Vessel Security Officer
(VSO) must amend the Vessel Security
Plan (VSP) to include the name and
contact information of the new vessel
owner or operator and submit the affected portion of the VSP for review
and approval in accordance with
§ 104.410 of this part.
(b) Audits. (1) The CSO or VSO must
ensure an audit of the VSP is performed annually, beginning no later
than one year from the initial date of
approval and attach a letter to the
VSP certifying that the VSP meets the
applicable requirements of this part.
(2) The VSP must be audited if there
is a change in the company’s or vessel’s
ownership or operator, or if there have
been modifications to the vessel, including but not limited to physical
structure, emergency response procedures, security measures, or operations.
(3) Auditing the VSP as a result of
modifications to the vessel may be limited to those sections of the VSP affected by the vessel modifications.
(4) Unless impracticable due to the
size and nature of the company or the
vessel, personnel conducting internal
audits of the security measures specified in the VSP or evaluating its implementation must:
(i) Have knowledge of methods of
conducting audits and inspections, and
control and monitoring techniques;
(ii) Not have regularly assigned security duties; and

(iii) Be independent of any security
measures being audited.
(5) If the results of an audit require
amendment of either the VSA or VSP,
the VSO or CSO must submit, in accordance with § 104.410 of this part, the
amendments to the MSC for review and
approval no later than 30 days after
completion of the audit and a letter
certifying that the amended VSP
meets the applicable requirements of
this part.

section may be satisfied with the implementation of security measures required by the FSP as the result of an
increase in the MARSEC Level, provided the facility reports attainment
to the cognizant COTP.

that at least one security drill is conducted every 3 months. Security drills
may be held in conjunction with nonsecurity drills, where appropriate.
(2) Drills must test individual elements of the FSP, including response
to security threats and incidents.
Drills should take into account the
types of operations of the facility, facility personnel changes, the type of
vessel the facility is serving, and other
relevant circumstances. Examples of
drills include unauthorized entry to a
restricted area, response to alarms, and
notification of law enforcement authorities.
(3) If a vessel is moored at the facility on the date the facility has planned
to conduct any drills, the facility cannot require the vessel or vessel personnel to be a part of or participate in
the facility’s scheduled drill.
(c) Exercises. (1) Exercises must be

(iii) Combined with other appropriate
exercises; or
(iv) A combination of the elements in
paragraphs (c)(2)(i) through (iii) of this
section.
(3) Exercises may be facility-specific
or part of a cooperative exercise program with applicable facility and vessel security plans or comprehensive
port exercises.

(4) Each exercise must test communication and notification procedures,
and elements of coordination, resource
availability, and response.
(5) Exercises are a full test of the security program and must include substantial and active participation of
FSOs, and may include government authorities and vessels visiting the facility. Requests for participation of Company and Vessel Security Officers in
joint exercises should consider the security and work implications for the
vessel.
