Levels of Service (LOS) statements and Operations Performance Standard (OPS) have been developed in accordance with the guidelines set out by the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA). The Level of Service Statement for the Quantity of Aids to Navigation (AtoN) has been developed by an analysis of the maritime geographical areas within AMNAS’ area of jurisdiction. Each area has been allocated a navigational risk factor. The higher the risk factor, the greater the quantity and mix of the AtoN is likely to be. A risk matrix has been produced for each area which identifies the elements contributing to risk, the impact on the area if such a risk event occurred and an estimate of the likelihood of that risk occurring. A risk control option has been generated for each risk element together with an overall analysis of the area and actions that AMNAS must take to minimise risk to the mariner and the environment.
