3.0 Reports

 The reports required from ships entering the area covered by the system are position reports similar to the existing MAREP/POSREP arrangements. The short title for the ship-report is CALDOVREP.

 Reports should be made using VHF voice transmissions. However, when reporting to DOVER COASTGUARD, ships can fulfil the reporting requirements of a CALDOVREP through the use of automatic ship identification transponders by the Organization.

 A ship may elect, for reasons of commercial confidentiality, to communicate that section of the report which provides information on cargo by non-verbal means prior to entering the system.
