EDUCATION AND TRAINING 189 become a responsibility of every industry, it is especially important that these efforts target all senior managers in order to foster organizational change. Second, numerous Annex V education and training programs have been carried out, but these efforts clearly need to be elevated to a higher level in order to meet the challenges involved in implementing the international treaty and the U.S. law. Strong national leadership, secure funding,: and innovation will be required to coordinate and enhance education and training. Given the current budget climate and the many distractions faced by federal agencies, the most promising alternative may be for the Congress to charter and endow a foundation to coordinate a sustained, long-term, national program devoted to Annex V education and training.

Marine debris is a serious environmental problem. To do its part, the United States has agreed to abide by the international treaty for garbage control at sea, known as MARPOL 73/78 Annex V.

Clean Ships, Clean Ports, Clean Oceans explores the challenge of translating Annex V into workable laws and regulations for all kinds of ships and boats, from cruise ships to fishing crafts and recreational boats. The volume examines how existing resources can be leveraged into a comprehensive strategy for compliance, including integrated waste management systems and effective enforcement.

Clean Ships, Clean Ports, Clean Oceans describes both progress toward and obstacles to Annex V compliance. The book covers:

  • How shipborne garbage orignates and what happens to garbage discharged into the seas.
  • Effects of discharge on human health, wildlife safety, and aesthetics.
  • Differences in perspective among military, industrial, and recreational seafarers and shoreside facilities.

Clean Ships, Clean Ports, Clean Oceans will be important to marine policymakers, port administrators, ship operations officers, maritime engineers, and marine ecologists.
