协会风险评估员注意到，有些船舶在经历长途航行后，对过去3个月船上垃圾以及存放腐烂垃圾的仓库的处理未作任何说明。
作为协会风险管理的一种积极主动的做法，协会风险评估员会定期在世界各地检查会员所属船舶。除信息交流外，检查船舶还能让协会更好地了解船上船员所关心的问题。
协会注意到的其中一个问题是，《国际防止船舶污染公约》(MARPOL)附件V关于垃圾处理规定的变化对船舶营运带来的影响。根据修改后的规定，船员需更经常地将垃圾处理至岸上回收点，以免垃圾在船上堆积。

Disposal of Garbage in Singapore
Club Risk Assessors have noted some vessels which, after long voyages, have either no explanation of what they have done with their garbage over the last 3 months or with their stores filled with decomposing garbage.
As part of the clubs proactive approach to risk management, Risk Assessors from the club regularly visit vessels entered in the club in different parts of the world. Apart from the knowledge exchange, the ship visits also allow the club to understand the concerns of the crew sailing onboard the vessels.
One of the issues noted by the Club has been the effect of the changes to MARPOL Annex V regulations on garbage disposal on ship operations. These changes place the need on ship staff to make more regular disposal of garbage to shore facilities, to avoid accumulation onboard.
