Soil investigation work will be carried out by drilling and sampling using jack-up barges. Tug boats will be used to move the jack-up barges. The safety zone is a circular area of 30m radius centred at the borehole.

Safety boats will be deployed in the vicinity of the working area to warn other craft of the project.

These craft will exhibit the appropriate local and international day and night signals.

When in the vicinity of the working area, mariners are reminded to:

a) Keep well clear and not to enter the working area;

b) Maintain a proper lookout;

c) Proceed at a safe speed and navigate with caution;

d) Maintain a listening watch on VHF Channel 12 (East Control); and

e) Communicate with East Control on VHF Channel 12 for assistance, if required.
