(13) Although the majority of marine litter originates from land-based activities, the shipping industry, including the fishing and recreational sectors, is also an important contributor, with discharges of garbage, including plastic and derelict fishing gear, going directly into the sea. Fixed or floating platforms also contribute to marine litter and should be required to deliver their waste to Union ports at regular intervals.

(19) The ‘Green Ship’ concept should be further developimplemented in relation to waste management.

Recital 18
Recital 18
(18) To address the problem of marine litter effectively, it is fundamental to provide the right level of incentives for the delivery of waste to port reception facilities, in particular garbage. This can be achieved through a cost recovery system, which requires the application of an indirect fee, which is due irrespective of the delivery of waste and which should give a right of delivery of the waste without any additional direct charges. The fishing and recreational sector, given their contribution to the occurrence of marine litter, should also be included in this systemdelivery of accidentally fished waste should be excluded from the cost recovery system and should not result in additional costs on fishing vessels.

Recital 18 a (new)
Recital 18 a (new)
(18a) To address the problem of marine litter effectively, Member States should, in addition, endeavour to devise strategies and plans to reduce the instances of fishing gear abandoned at sea and to that end should make use of, for example, grants under the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF), as well as drawing on the support of the Structural Funds and European territorial cooperation (ETC) and the necessary active involvement of the regions. New governance tools and good practices should likewise be encouraged, such as those being considered in Adriatic-based projects co-financed with ETC funding, another possibility being to have fishing fleets play a new role as Sea Sentinels.
