Abstract

Six years ago there was hardly any marine pollution legislation in Pacific Island Countries (PICs). True, some legislation and regulations existed in the Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands, former United States Trust Territories. They had inherited various bits and pieces of United States’ environmental protection legislation, some of which addressed water quality in ports, harbours and coastal regions. However, in the South Pacific, generally speaking, there was no comprehensive regime for the prevention of marine pollution.
