North of England Instructions to Surveyors – Hatch Cover Survey
Please read the following carefully in order to help ensure that the survey and the reporting are
completed as smoothly as possible:

Please provide the CV of the attending surveyor on receipt of appointment. This is not required if a
CV has been submitted to North of England within the previous 12 months.
• Please provide full contact details of the attending surveyor for ISPS compliance.
• Please advise expected fees and expenses when confirming the survey appointment. If there are
any special circumstances which may cause these to change, North of England is to be advised as
soon as practicable.
• The surveyor should liaise with the local vessel contact as advised regarding the most appropriate
place / time to attend.
• Please complete and print two hard copies of the North of England survey letter included in this
package. One copy is to be retained by the master. The other copy should be signed by the master
and the surveyor(s) and included as a scanned attachment in your Report.
• Following completion of the survey and based on the surveyor’s overall impression of the

the survey or other circumstances rendering the rating impossible he should leave the relevant box
blank. In PART A, section 2, Circumstances of the Survey, the reason for not having surveyed /
assessed an area should be included.
•
If the surveyor is likely to give an individual score of 5 or if any risks are identified that, in the
