(b) the safe load-carrying capacity of the ‘tween-decks prescribed by the ship’s stability book is observed at all times.
This is a penal provision.
7A Loading and unloading plan
7A.1 Solid bulk cargo may be loaded or unloaded only if the master and the terminal representative agree on a plan before loading or unloading that:
(a) ensures that the permissible forces and moments on the ship, in accordance with the booklet mentioned in provision 7.1, are not exceeded during loading or unloading; and
(b) includes the sequence, quantity and rate of loading or unloading, taking into consideration the speed of loading or unloading, the number of pours and the deballasting or ballasting capability of the ship.
Note A plan should conform to the extent possible with the BLU Code. Reference should also be made to the Manual on Loading and Unloading of Solid Bulk Cargoes for Terminal Representatives (BLU Manual), published by IMO as MSC/Circ.1160, as amended by MSC.1/Circ.1230 and MSC.1/Circ. 1356. The BLU Manual supplements the BLU Code and is intended to provide more detailed guidance to terminal representatives and others involved in the handling of solid bulk cargoes, including those responsible for training of personnel.
7A.2 The plan and any amendments of it must be lodged with the terminal representative at the port of loading or unloading and a copy kept on board the ship throughout the voyage.

(a) the master may suspend the loading or unloading; and
(b) if the master suspends the loading or unloading — the master must notify the person mentioned in provision 7B.10 of the suspension.
7B.5 If the master suspends loading or unloading at a terminal under provision 7B.4, the master and the terminal representative at the terminal must ensure that corrective action is taken before the loading or unloading resumes.
7B.6The master must ensure that, within his or her area of responsibility, provision 7B.5 is complied with.
This is a penal provision.
7B.7 The terminal representative must ensure that, within his or her area of responsibility, provision 7B.5 is complied with.
This is a penal provision.
7B.8The master of a ship carrying solid bulk cargo must ensure:
(a) that cargo operations are continuously monitored; and
