The project was the first experience in its kind in the region. In that sense it was innovative in its design and conception. The physical as well as the institutional components of the project were designed in close consultation with the executing agency and local and regional authorities. The project as such increased the awareness of the environmental authority to the threat of oil pollution and is considered as the most important vehicle for abiding by international regulations and enforcing their implementation

1. Compliance with the effluent standard: As a result of the project, effluents from deballasting stations decreased and were kept below 15 ppm. Pollution funds have been set up, and decrees and laws regarding fees and fined to be paid by polluters have been revised and enforced. A model for recovering the operation and investment cost of the deballasting station has been developed for port authorities. 2. Reduction in potential negative environmental: Rehabilitation of the deballasting station located in the port of Mohammedia to receive and handle ballast waters and bilge waters. 38,000 m3 treated and 3,300 tons of the recovered oily materials produced and sold. 3. Improved country’s capabilities to deal with accidental oil spills: Training has been provided for those who are responsible for combating oil spills, and for control of navigation traffic, deballasting stations, and oil terminals. Three main groups participated in the program: Level I included management personnel of port enterprises, supervising officers managing the civil protection function, and those responsible for coordinating the intervention in case of accidental oil spills. Level II included port officers, and civil protection staff responsible for organizing and managing the protection of coastal sites.
