This work is about protecting our fish stocks and creating a safe and secure environment at sea for both leisure boats and commercial traffic. The work also aims, among other things, to prevent accidents. To do this, the Coast Guard checks load securing and the transport of dangerous goods in ports, for cargo that will continue by road, by rail or by sea.
