Livorno (ITLIV)

Leghorn is an alternative name for Livorno.

Summer.

Livorno, also known as Leghorn, is in NW Italy on the Ligurian Sea.

LOA 338.72m, beam 48.4m, draught 13.0m, 117,236DWT

Approx 34,000,000t of cargo, 800,000TEU, 2,000,000 passengers and 6,000 vessels handled annually.

Rada di Livorno, situated between Secche della Meloria and the coast, affords anchorage with some protection from SW squalls, in the following positions. With the light structure at the N end of Diga Curvilinea bearing 092°, distant 0.9nm, in depths of approx 11m, sand. This area may be used in calm or moderate weather by vessels wishing to remain in depths of more than 9.0m, but such vessels must take care not to anchor N of the given bearing. With the light structure at the N end of Diga Meloria bearing 133°, distance 1nm, in a depth of 8.5m, mud bottom, but this depth cannot be carried in the approach from S. This area is generally used during strong SW winds by vessels waiting for calm weather in which to enter harbour. Prohibited anchorage: Anchoring is prohibited within an area extending W and SW from Livorno Light, due to the existence of submarine cables. A tanker anchorage area has been established 2.75nm S of Diga Curvilinea S Light for tanker or gas carriers of less than 200m in length, carrying out lightering operations. The following anchor berths have been established for lightering and bunkering purposes: ..... Anchorage Position Remarks A 43°36.7'N 010°14.5'E For vessels carrying explosives and munitions B 43°32.8'N 010°14.9'E For vessels of LOA 150m or less, carrying out bunkering operations C 43°30.7'N 010°16.8'E For vessels of LOA 150m or less, carrying out bunkering operations D 43°29.5'N 010°16.2'E For vessels of more than LOA 150m, carrying out bunkering operations E 43°28.7'N 010°16.8'E For gas or oil tankers more than 200m carrying out lightering operations.

The Livorno Habour Turning Basin has recently been deepened to 13m. The S entrance is the main entrance to the port and has a navigable width of 0.12nm between the S end of Diga Curvilinea and shoal water extending from the coast E of it, with depths of up to 13.0m in the harbour. The NE approach lane of the Traffic Separation Scheme leads into the S entrance. Pass between the S end of Diga Curvilinea and a light beacon (starboard hand) moored 2.25nm SE, keeping to the starboard side of the channel in accordance with port regulations, then turn sharply to a course of approx 000° and be guided by two light beacons, starboard hand, marking the E side of the channel which has 100m width. A depth of 12.3m can be carried through Avamporto to Bacino San Stefano and then to Darsena dei Petroli, but deep draught vessels must have regard to a 10.6m patch lying 0.2nm SSW of the S end of Diga Curvilinea. The N entrance, lying between the head of Diga Marzocco and the E side of Diga Meloria, is 330m wide. There are 4.7m and 5.4m patches close within the entrance, and depths of 5.0m or less extend from the heads of both moles. Vessels approaching from N with a draught greater than 3.0m must pass W of Secche Della Meloria and enter through the S entrance. Approach the N entrance with the tower on the summit of Monte Nero in line with the light structure on the N end of Diga Meloria bearing 143° which leads between Secche della Meloria and the coastal shoals. At night, pass 0.1nm E of the lightbuoy on the E side of Secche della Meloria. In passing through the N entrance, navigate with caution and keep as close to mid channel as is consistent with the port regulations.

Customs: The customs allowance is 40 cigarettes per head and 1 bottle of spirit. Non compliance can generate heavy fines. Immigration: There are no entry problems provided passport/Seaman Books are valid. Passengers must have a transit visa which should be obtained abroad prior to entering Italian waters. If the above is not complied with, shore passes will not be issued and heavy fines may be incurred.

..... Document Copies 1. Crew List 9 2. Passenger List 8 3. Stores List 3 4. Crew Declaration 2 5. Drugs List 1 6. Ports of Call 3 7. Quarantine Declaration 1 8. Arms/Ammunition List 2 Please give attention to the following three points: 1. Whenever passenger vessels arrive from a foreign port, all passports other than those of the EU must be stamped by Italian Immigration. As a consequence therefore when vessels are coming from abroad, all passports must be collected and made available to Immigration boarding officers. 2. Whenever a passenger vessel arrives from a foreign port, it is of utmost importance that a complete and legible Passenger List reaches the agent at least 2 days prior to vessel's arrival. This will enable Italian Immigration to process all passengers in advance, thus avoiding a delay with inward clearance procedure. 3. Arms and ammunitions: If any arms/ammunition are onboard the proper procedure must be carried out at the Italian port of entry. A complete list of each weapon advising the following: mark/model/type/gauge/serial number, to be presented 10 days prior to vessel's arrival The number of rounds/cartridges must also be listed. Italian Police Authority will grant a laissez-passer valid for Livorno and for all other Italian ports the vessel will be calling in sequence. This document expires at the time the vessel leaves Italian territorial waters. This means that a complete new procedure will be necessary when a vessel returns to Italian ports from abroad.

Passenger vessels: ETA to be advised 10, 5 and 2 days prior to arrival. Other vessels: ETA to be advised 5, 2 and 1 day prior to arrival. Messages should always be addressed to agent and to indicate draught and other important information (if any) such as cargo, dangerous goods, stowaways, etc. For vessels loading or unloading dangerous liquid or gas cargoes pilots require ETA at least 24 hours in advance of arrival. Other vessels, not subject to special regulations, 1 hour in advance.

Special regulations are in force for vessels carrying, or which have carried, flammable liquids or any other dangerous goods.

Vessels arriving from EU ports are not required to ask for free radio pratique. When arriving from outside the EU, free radio pratique can be obtained by telex to "Sanimare Livorno" through agent.

NOR to be tendered at end of sea passage if vessel is anchored in the roads. If proceeding directly to a berth, NOR should be tendered to receivers.
