The Club had recently been notified of claims involving our Members' vessels running into fishing farms anchored at the vicinity around the entrance of Lanshan Port.

The Club's correspondent, Huatai, had issued a circular (1202) on 5 Sep 2012, which to date remains valid.

It is essential for the Members, whom have trade in the area, to make pro-active contact with their charterers and local agents for any update information on these anchored fish farms.

Please refer to Huatai's Circular 1202 - Lanshan Port, China-Expanding of Local Fishery Farms Brings Danger to Safe Navigation of the Vessels around the Area, for further details.
