PORT WALCOTT
Rio Tinto requests all vessels to send through a copy of Bio Security Document and Customs forms 13 and 3B, or last vessels port visited and crew nationalities.
PORT HEDLAND

They have also created a Letter to Master Coronavirus & BHP Crew List Health Final. Vessels are to complete these forms including the crew health check 1 day before the vessels arrives at anchorage.
