As of the 1st July 2008, ALL PORT USERS will be required to have a Maritime Security Identification Card (MSIC) as well as a Flinders Ports Access Card to gain access to the wharf area. ALL ACTIVE ACCESS CARDS will become VOID on the 1st July 2008 if the access card holder does not show evidence of having an MSIC to Flinders Ports by this date.
If you are the holder of an MSIC, please either provide a copy of this card to Flinders Ports or visit a Flinders Ports office with your MSIC.
For further information on obtaining an MSIC please contact the Department of Transport and Regional Services (DOTARS) Hotline number 1800 052 002.
Revalidation process for access cards
If you require your access card to be revalidated, then a fee of $50 is payable to revalidate your card for a further period of 2 years.
A revalidation notice will be sent to all port users prior to the access card expiring. This notice will be sent to the card holder's company to distribute to the individual card holder.
A handout notifying you of any changes to the Flinders Ports Security Induction will be sent out with the revalidation notice. A "Port Access Requirements" document will also accompany the revalidation notice.
The card holder MUST sign the revalidation notice / receipt.
Once signed, the notice (the Remittance Slip section) AND payment (payment by cash / cheque / money order accepted) must be sent or delivered to Flinders Ports.
For Regional Port users, payment can be sent or delivered to your local Flinders Ports office.
Upon Flinders Ports receiving the signed notice AND payment, the relevant access card will be revalidated.
If payment and the signed notice is not received prior to the card expiring, the relevant access card will become VOID and access to the wharf area will not be granted.
If you no longer require your access card, then please notify Flinders Ports.
For further information regarding revalidation, please contact 08 8447 0600.
Recreational and Fishing Access
Flinders Ports has signed a Recreational and Fishing Access agreement for the ports of Port Giles, Wallaroo, Port Pirie, Port Lincoln and Thevenard. Recreational access is not available for the wharves in Port Adelaide.
In the interest of public safety and in compliance with the Maritime Transport and Offishore Facilities Security Act, at Security Level 1, the public will have access to the regional port wharves only when there are no Commercial Security Regulated ships working cargo or there is no maintenance being carried out to the wharf structure.
If the Office of Transport Security raises the level of security, additional measures will be put in place in accordance with the security plan for the port.
The following listed ports are all compliant with the Maritime Transport and Offshore Facilities Security Act 2003.
Port Adelaide
Access to the Inner Harbour Berths can be gained through a number of electronic access gates. At Berths 29, 27 and 16-20 Berths you will find electronic entry and exit access gates. For your convenience we also have an exit only gate located at 16 Berth.
M Berth, Adelaide's only Oil Berth, is classed as critical infrastructure and as such has a number of security measures in place. When a vessel is berthed, a security guard controls access to the berth. When there are no vessels at the berth, access is controlled through the electronic access card.
Outer Harbor Berths 1-4 as well as the Signal Station and the Marine Services Office can be accessed through electronic entry and exit gates located off the roundabout on Lady Ruthven Drive.
There are a number of dedicated berths in Port Adelaide and Outer Harbor. Port Facility Operators such as those who operate these berths are required to implement their own Maritime Security Plan and therefore control access to the berth directly.
H and K Berths in the Inner Harbour are dedicated to Adelaide Brighton Cement and access can only be gained by arrangement directly with Adelaide Brighton Cement.
Penrice Soda Products operates a dedicated berth also in the Inner Harbour. Access is controlled directly by Penrice.
Berths 6 & 7 at Outer Harbor are dedicated to DP World Adelaide, the Adelaide container terminal operator. Access to these berths is controlled directly by DP World Adelaide through on site security guards by arrangement only.
