Even small-scale accidental pollution discharges can have long-term consequences for marine and coastal resources. The UN Convention on the Law of Sea obliges all States to cooperate to prevent accidents and to minimize environmental damage during emergencies by jointly developing and implementing marine pollution contingency plans. The Asia-Pacific is one of the world?s busiest shipping regions, some of its mega-ports experience high rates of vessel congestion, and there are increasing numbers of offshore installations. Marine pollution prevention planning is thus vital for the region. Marine Pollution Contingency Planning: State Practice in Asia-Pacific States outlines and examines marine pollution contingency planning in Australia, Canada, China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Singapore, and the United States. 410 0$aMaritime Cooperation in East Asia$v4. 606 $aMarine pollution$zPacific Area 606 $aMarine pollution$xGovernment policy$zPacific Area 606 $aMarine pollution$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aEnvironmental protection$xPlanning 615 0$aMarine pollution 615 0$aMarine pollution$xGovernment policy 615 0$aMarine pollution$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aEnvironmental protection$xPlanning. 676 $a363.739/456109162 701 $aTelesetsky$b Anastasia$0886587 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796562203321 996 $aMarine pollution contingency planning$93736978 997 $aUNINA
