Check the charts carried on board against the Index of Affected Charts in the
Notices to Mariners
(NMs);
x
Check which notices affect charts on board, and find the Notice in Section II;
x
Check that the previous Notice has been applied to the chart (each chart has, at its bottom left, a list
of corrections written on it by whoever corrected the chart. This information is also available in a
separate Chart Correction Record Log that is maintained on board);
x
If any charts have not been updated, they
shall
be corrected to the previous Notice before the
current notice is applied;
x
Tracings are used to correct charts, when available;
x
Corrections are made in indelible ink, ensuring that standard symbols are used, that the correction is
made neatly, accurately and does not obscure other information on the chart;
x
After correction, an entry is made on the bottom left of the chart and the
Chart Correction Record
Book
.
NOTE: At the bottom of each Notice is a list of all charts affected by it as well as the previous Notice, which affected that chart. The
previous Notice may be sometimes years old, but this information assists in confirming that the last correction(s) have been made
on the chart in question.

Small corrections
shall
be carried out as follows:
x
Sections III and IV are detached from the NMs and filed: these give a list of Temporary and
Preliminary Notices and Navigation Warnings still in force;
x
Charts on board and in use in the present voyage are corrected for these Notices. The correction is
made in pencil because these Notices are not permanent and may change quickly;
x
While on passage, other Temporary and Preliminary Notices and Navigation Warnings may be
received on Navtex or VHF. Charts in use
shall
be corrected as the information is received.
