Recital 20
(20) Cargo residues remain the property of the cargo owner after unloading the cargo to the terminal, and often have an economic value. For this reason, the cargo residues should not be included in the cost recovery systems and the application of the indirect fee; the fee for the delivery of cargo residues should be paid by the user of the reception facility, as specified in the contractual arrangements between the parties involved or in other local arrangements. With the objective to promote harmonised implementation of this Directive, technical guidance on the management of cargo residues should be developed in accordance with MARPOL Annex I and II.
