Engineer Penalized for Environmental Breach on the Viden
In a significant environmental violation, the Brunsbüttel water police conducted an inspection of the vessel Viden at Elbe Port on December 6, 2018. The inspection revealed that the Viden had unlawfully discharged untreated sewage into German territorial waters. Following the finding, authorities initiated an investigation and required a security deposit due to insufficient maintenance of the ship's wastewater treatment facility, which was found to be severely polluted. Additionally, the ship was reported to be using an inappropriate disinfectant for its wastewater, leading to the suspicion that it had released non-disinfected wastewater into the marine environment, contrary to mandated regulations. As a consequence, the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency levied a security deposit of 800 Euros against the ship's 1st engineer for breaching marine environmental codes. After addressing the necessary protocols, the Viden set sail from the port on December 7 at 6:30 p.m., en route to Kandalaksha, with an estimated arrival date of December 16.
