<< Implementation date in accordance with Federal Regulation >>
The implementation date of the CA Fuel Regulation is really
required to be in conformity with the implementation date (Jan. 1,
2015) of US Federal Regulation and EU SECA Regulation for full
compliances by shipping industry and a successful transition to
very low sulfur.

<< Sufficient Fuel Supplying Infrastructure >>
Considering fuel supplier's comments and my company experiences,
there is no fuel supplier and port facility that can supply the
0.1% sulfur distillate fuel in the regions of Easter Asia and
America at this moment.  In this regard, be advised that sufficient
market surveys and technical verifications should take precedence
in order to confirm the possibility and availability of low sulfur
fuel in those regions in 2014.  In addition, we need to ensure that
there is sufficient infrastructure to supply low sulfur fuel
without difficulties.
