We are preparing a project on waste & waste water management in small island harbours in the Baltic Sea Region (leisure boats), especially in Finland, Sweden and Estonia. In Finland the prohibition to discharge sewage into the sea entered into force in 2005, and requires each port to provide facilities for receiving all types of waste from ships, including pleasure crafts. The corresponding law entered into force in Sweden from 1.4.2015 onwards. I wonder if you could help us with information on corresponding legislation in Estonia? Do you have similar laws currently in force, or to come? If you have advice on contacts for further information, that would be highly appreciated, as well!
