Good Wood Marine Services provides Authorised Officer BVIR Surveys to help vessels meet strict biosecurity requirements. These inspections are conducted by government-recognized Authorised Officers and focus on preventing the introduction of pests, diseases, and contaminants through marine traffic.
Our surveyors assess vessel cleanliness, waste handling systems, and potential biosecurity risks across critical areas like galley waste, accommodation, and deck spaces. BVIR inspections are essential before loading or discharging cargo in port regions. We ensure compliance with Department of Agriculture regulations, reducing clearance delays and avoiding costly penalties. Our process is fast, thorough, and fully documented with photographic evidence.
Our BVIR survey process includes:
Inspection of accommodation, mess, galley, dry stores, and food waste areas
Assessment of external ship surfaces (decks, winches, cranes) for pests or residues
Review of waste management practices and onboard incinerator status
Check for signs of insects, rodents, or nesting material
Inspection of quarantine waste handling and containment
Verification of cleanliness against DoA biosecurity standards
Completion of official Biosecurity Vessel Inspection Report (BVIR)
Photographic documentation of inspected areas
Liaison with port biosecurity officers, if needed
Rapid turnaround with compliant reporting for vessel clearance
