碩士 === 國立海洋大學 === 海洋法律研究所 === 90 === The protection of marine environment is grate important in ROC (Taiwan island),this thesis focus on UN convention and legislation .some pollution such as oil, noxious liquid substances, sewage, garbage, anti-fouling paints or unwanted aquatic organisms, are released into the marine environment by ships or Land-based activities in the course of their routine operations, either as a result of accidents, or illegally around Taiwan island. As much oil spills involving tankers occur at the terminal during loading or unloading. UNCLOS regulates pollution from ships by requiring States, acting through the competent international organization or a general diplomatic conference, to establish international rules and standards to prevent, reduce and control the pollution of the marine environment from vessels and to reexamine them from time to time as necessary. For the flag State such global rules and standards constitute the minimum standard which it must adopt for vessels flying its flag. Coastal States can adopt stricter rules and standards than the generally accepted global standards for application in their territorial sea, so long as such standards do not apply to the design ,construction ,manning or equipment of foreign ships or hamper innocent passage. In the exclusive economic zone, the generally accepted international rules and standards apply.
