AB - Spills from ships in times of accident are extremely difficult to respond and the enormity of damages are beyond imagination due to extraordinary situations of the seas. The Marine Environment Management Act of Korea has been the framework act for the response of both spilt oils and hazardous and noxious substances(HNS) with focuses on spilt oil response. However, considering the high risk associated with the HNS to marine environment/ecosystem and human welfare as well as economic losses, revision of the existing law to fully cover the HNS response. According to the review of the existing policies and measures on preparedness and response to the HNS spill in accordance with the law, it would be extremely difficult to effectively respond to HNS emergency as the current law does not have clauses for preparedness and response for HNS, clauses for chemicals and equipment for response, and clauses for deploying the response vessels. In order to overcome the discrepancies of the current law which mainly focuses on oil spill response, this study suggests to revise the law to include the clauses for chemicals and equipment for HNS response and the deployment of HNS vessels.
