Environmental Protection
International regulations on environmental protection are found
mainly in MARPOL, a convention produced by the International
Maritime Organization (IMO). The provisions have been incorporated
into the regulations of the Swedish Maritime Administration’s
(SJÖFS 2007:15) and General Advice on prevention of pollution
from ships. SJÖFS 2007:15 comprises provisions on prevention
of pollution to the aquatic environment as well as to the air.
