Abstract

To prepare the Sultan Hasanuddin Training Ship for garbage disposal, which can not be avoided from various
onboard garbage ships, it is necessary to prepare the procedure that can prevent the disposal of garbage into the sea.
Handling waste properly needs planning and preparation to not cause any marine pollution. Therefore, the research aims
to determine the suitability of the handling procedure of garbage disposal, according to annex V of Marpol 73/78. The data
were fully obtained according to the number of the training ship crews by collecting the results of direct observation,
questionnaire, and literature study. The result of this quantitative descriptive research shows that the garbage handling
procedure in Sultan Hasanuddin Training Ship has not been performed under an appropriate waste disposal procedure that
meets the application of the garbage management plan. The results of observations and interviews show that the intention
of the ship crew is still low due to knowledge limitations (information on the importance of protecting the maritime
environment) in waste disposal according to the waste type and the availability of facilities (adequate and appropriate type
of trash bin) in preparing the facilities for garbage container is not yet fulfilled. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously
disseminate garbage disposal, especially the procedure for preventing waste disposal into the sea.
