Marine Spill Contingency Plan "NATPLAN" for the Government of Samoa (Draft)

Abstract

This plan meets the obligations of Samoa under the Protocol Concerning Cooperation in Combating Pollution Emergencies in the South Pacific Region (Noumea Pollution Protocol) of the Convention for the Protection of the Natural Resources and Environment of the South Pacific Region (Noumea Convention). The Noumea Convention Protocols have now been revised to produce the Oil and HNS Protocols. This also meets obligations under the International Convention on Oil Pollution Response, Preparedness and Cooperation 1990 (OPRC 90).
