As such, this agreement may be subject to transfer to the Ministry of Resilience and Preparedness or an agency under the Ministry's purview, such as the Danish Emergency Management Agency.

The Supplier of Airborne Maritime Pollution Surveillance shall overfly areas within the Danish waters - territorial sea and the Danish economic exclusive zone (as defined in the Danish act on Protection of the Marine Environment section 5) two times weekly.

During the flights the Supplier shall collect evidence of any observed pollution, hereunder by photo and other documentation and by means of air-drop of oil spill sampling buoys, with the purpose of for example giving the Danish Authorities information to assess the measures to be taken in combating the pollution and providing evidence for further investigation and/or preliminary charges. Specifically the Supplier shall provide the following for airborne maritime pollution surveillance: - Flight system; - sensor equipment; - air crew and system operators necessary for operating flight system and sensor equipment. The Supplier must prior to commencement undertake extensive practical training of his air crew and system operators.
