Reg. 18.8.3

 The discharge of ballast from the dedicated clean ballast tanks should be continuously monitored (but not necessarily recorded) by the oil content meter required by regulation 18.8.3 so that the oil content, if any, in the ballast water can be observed from time to time. This oil content meter is not required to come into operation automatically.
