Submarine Operations and Fishing Vessels
A Code of Practice
This document describes the arrangements and procedures that have been put into place for the conduct of dived submarine operations in waters which are frequented by UK vessels engaged in fishing, and the related arrangements for improving fishing vessel safety. These arrangements take account of the work and consultations that have taken place in the Department of Environment Transport and Regions sponsored Fishing Industry Safety Group (FISG), sub-group on submarine and fishing vessel matters, including the views and concerns put forward by the members of the Fishing Industry Liaison Meeting (FILM), representing the UK fishing industry.
