METEOROLOGY 3.1 CLIMATE The average air temperatures during the cooler months (May to August) are in the mid to high twenties. The average air temperatures during the warmer months (September to April) are low to mid-thirties. March has the highest average temperature of 34.8 o C, with July the lowest average temperature of 25.8 o C. On average over two hundred days per annum exceed 30 o C, five of which exceed 40 o C. Monthly and annual rainfall is highly variable with the majority of rain falling during the warmer months (September to April) as a result of tropical low pressure systems. Mean annual rainfall for the Port is 303.9 mm with highest mean rain falling in February 97.1 mm and lowest mean rainfall in November 0.1 mm. 3.2 WINDS In the warmer months (September to April) prevailing winds are west to south westerly and average between 15 and 20 knots. During these months the wind strength tends to increase throughout the day and is strongest in the afternoon. In the cooler months (May to August) prevailing winds are easterly and are typically between 20 and 25 knots. During these months the wind strength tends to be fresh in the mornings and decrease in the afternoon. 3.3 CYCLONES The official tropical cyclone season runs from November to April, however, cyclones have occurred outside of this period. On average up to five cyclones per year pass the region in which three may track near the Port. Since 1910, the Port of Dampier has recorded 48 cyclones where wind gusts have exceeded 90 km/h, approximately one every two years. Page 7 of 93

3.4 FOG Fog within the Port generally lasts only a few hours and first indications of fog generally appear over the Withnell Bay flare tower. Should visibility reduce to less than half nautical mile, shipping movements will continue only at the Harbour Masters discretion. 4. TROPICAL CYCLONE RESPONSE The official tropical cyclone season extends from 1 st November to 30 th April, although Australia has recorded cyclone events in every calendar month. Every vessel operating in Dampier during the official tropical cyclone season must have a Cyclone Response Plan, typically: Large vessels will head out to sea in sufficient time to clear the port and obtain adequate sea room before coming under the influence of gale force winds. Small vessels will be secured to cyclone approved moorings and their crews ferried ashore before the onset of gale force winds. The Pilbara Port Authority has a Cyclone Response Plan for Dampier which involves five Stages: Stage Key Element Parameter 1 Monitor Cyclone or tropical low has formed in northern waters 2 Prepare Cyclone is tracking toward the port with potential for impact 3 Clear Port Potential for gale force winds to impact port within 12 hours 4 Shut Down Potential for gale force winds to impact port within 6 hours 5 Re-Open Cyclone or threat of cyclone has passed During a cyclone event the Dampier Harbour Master issues directions via email and a cyclone distribution list. Harbour Master directions may also be given via VHF through Dampier VTS. Persons wishing to be added to the cyclone distribution list should contact Dampier.VTS@pilbaraports.com.au. For more information see Port of Dampier Cyclone Response Plan on the Pilbara Ports Authority web site. http://www.pilbaraports.com.au/port-of-dampier/security-and-safety/emergencypreparedness-and-response Page 8 of 93

5. OCEANOGRAPHY 5.1 WATER TEMPERATURES Mean water temperature within Dampier Archipelago including the Port of Dampier varies significantly throughout the year and is highly site dependent. Typically seasonal fluctuation of almost 10 o C occurs between summer and winter (February 31 o C / August 21 o C). 5.2 WAVE CLIMATE Typically, swell and waves enter the Port of Dampier from the north as a result of Southern Ocean swell refraction around the Montebello Islands, 120 km to the west. The Port is protected to the west by the islands of the Dampier Archipelago and south by mainland Australia. Swells tend to be greatest in winter (June/July, typically 2 m in height) and smallest in summer (February/March, typically less than 1 m in height) Tropical cyclone swells may reach 10 m in the outer Port and are usually reduced to 2.5 m in the inner Port. Ninety percent of locally generated wind waves within the Port are less than 0.6 m in height. 5.3 TIDES The tidal regime of the Port of Dampier is semi-diurnal with a slight diurnal inequality (difference in height between the two highs or two lows). The Port of Dampier experiences mean high water spring tides of 4.5 m and mean low water spring tides of 0.8 m approximately 2 days after the full and new moon. Tidal currents in the waters off the Burrup Peninsula are locally influenced by surrounding islands and channels that form the Dampier Archipelago. During spring tides the seaward reaches of Mermaid Sound (outer Port) can experience currents of 0.5 m/s (0.97 knots) with inner Sound (inner Port) currents about half that observed further offshore. Currents through Searipple and Flying Foam Passages to the east can reach in excess of 2 m/s (3.8 knots). 6. JURISDICTION IN WEST AUSTRALIAN PORTS Western Australia ports operate under one of two pieces of legislation: The Shipping and Pilotage Act 1967, and the Shipping and Pilotage (Ports and Harbours) Regulations 1966. Or The Port Authorities Act 1999 and Port Authorities Regulations 2001. Page 9 of 93

6.1 THE SHIPPING AND PILOTAGE ACT (SPA PORTS) Cape Lambert (Port Walcott), Onslow, Cape Preston, Thevenard Island, Barrow Island, Varanus Island and Airlie Island. These ports are administered by the Department of Transport. 6.2 THE PORT AUTHORITY ACT (PAA PORTS) Broome, Port Hedland, Dampier, Ashburton, Anketell, Cape Preston East, Geraldton, Fremantle, Bunbury, Albany and Esperance. These ports are administered by the Regional Port Authorities. Ship masters must be aware in some areas SPA / PAA ports border each other and the legal requirements differ between the ports. 6.3 PORT AUTHORITY PORTS COMPARED WITH SHIPPING AND PILOTAGE PORTS Under the Port Authority Act (PAA) pilotage is compulsory for vessels of greater than 150 gross tonnes, and pilotage exemption certificates (PEC) are issued to Masters of vessels over 150 GT. Under the Shipping and Pilotage Act (SPA) pilotage is compulsory for vessels of greater than 500 gross tonnes, and pilotage exemption certificates (PEC) are issued to Masters of vessels over 500 GT. This applies to all vessels operating within the pilotage limits of a port including tugs. In PAA ports a PEC becomes invalid if not used for an interval of 6 months. In SPA ports a PEC becomes invalid if not used for 12 months. In PAA ports a pilotage provider must be licenced. And the individual pilots must be approved by the Harbour Master. In SPA ports pilotage providers are not licensed, only the individual pilots are approved. In PAA ports fishing vessels of less than 35m in length do not require a pilot. In SPA ports there is no such exemption. In PAA ports providers of services in the port such as towage, line boats, stevedoring, mooring and bunkering are licenced. In SPA ports there is no such requirement. In PAA ports vessels are charged port dues based on their gross tonnage. In SPA ports, port dues are not charged. Page 10 of 93

PILOTAGE The Port Authority is to: Ensure pilotage services are provided in the port Ensure Pilot Service Providers are licensed Approve Individual Pilots Port Authorities Act 1990, Part 7, Division 2, Section 96 29.1 PILOTAGE IS COMPULSORY IN PORTS Under the Port Authorities Act 1999, Pilotage is compulsory in ports A vessel movement is defined as entering or leaving the port or moving between places within the port. Port Authorities Act 1990, Part 7, Division 2, Section 95 (3) A vessel moving in a port must use pilotage services, except as otherwise provided by the Port Authority Regulations 2001. Port Authorities Act 1990, Part 7, Division 2, Section 97 The Harbour Master may require a second pilot to be used in certain circumstances. Port Authority Regulations 2001, Part 3, Division 4, Section 38 For the convenience of shipping the Dampier Harbour Master has established a compulsory pilotage area within the Dampier Port Limits. 29.2 EXCEPTIONS TO PILOTAGE PROVIDED BY THE PORT AUTHORITY REGULATIONS 2001 Australian Navy Vessels (except troop carriers, navy tankers and provisioning vessels). Navy vessels from any other country. Non-commercial vessels. Australian fishing vessels less than 35 m in length. A vessel less than 150 gross tonnes. A vessel being led by another vessel that is under the control of a pilot, the vessel being led is still liable for pilotage charges. A vessel engaged in port dredging, and exempted by the Harbour Master A vessel exempted by the Harbour Master from using pilotage services. A vessel under the Command of a Master holding a current Pilotage Exemption Certificate covering that vessel. Port Authority Regulations 2001, Part 3, Division 4, Section 30 Page 43 of 93

29.3 PILOTAGE IS COMPULSORY FOR A commercial vessel greater than 150 gross tonnes. Fishing vessels greater than 35 m in length. Port Authority Regulations 2001, Section 30 30. DAMPIER PILOT EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE (PEC) Pilot Exemption Certificates are a privilege granted to the Masters or First Mates of vessels who have gained local knowledge of the port through a training process and whose local knowledge is maintained through frequent movements within the port. 30.1 THE PILOT EXEMPTION CERTIFICATE A current Pilot Exemption Certificate authorises the holder to move a vessel of greater than 150 gross tonnes, or a fishing vessels greater than 35 m in length, within the pilotage limits of the port without engaging a licensed marine pilot. Subject to the following conditions: The holder of the certificate is the Master in command, of the vessel being moved. Any conditions imposed on the PEC. The Harbour Master has not specifically directed a licensed pilot be employed. The Harbour Master may direct a Pilot Exempt Master to take a Pilot when the Harbour Master considers it necessary due to: a) Local tide or tidal current conditions b) Major works being carried out in the port c) The vessel or another vessel in the port carrying noxious or hazardous cargo. d) Any other reason the Harbour Master considers may endanger, safety of the vessel or other vessels, people or port facilities. Port Authority Regulations 2001, Part 3, Division 4, Section 31 30.2 FIRST MATES AND PEC Under the Port Authorities Act, the definition of an exempt master is the master or first mate of a vessel that holds a pilot exemption certificate. Port Authority Regulations 2001, Part 3, Division 1, Section 22 Pilot Exemption Certificates are granted to the First Mate of a vessel, with the view of the Mate being promoted to Master in the near future. The First Mate is able to gain and maintain his PEC but he is not able to use it to move a vessel as he is not in command of the vessel. Page 44 of 93

If the First Mate is logging a vessel movement to maintain his PEC the Dampier Harbour Masters expectation is that he is on the bridge actively involved in the navigation of the vessel.
