Solid Waste Pollution on Texas Beaches: A Post-MARPOL Annex V Study. Volume 2. Appendices
The International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) adopted Annex V, prohibiting the discharge of plastics into the ocean, on December 31, 1988. To see if compliance with MARPOL Annex V reduced the quantity of marine debris on a Gulf of Mexico beach, surveys were conducted from January 1991 to June 1992. Two main methods were employed: counting large items in situ, and collecting small and certain targeted items for later classification and analysis. Counts were done at 2-day, weekly, and monthly periods, and collections made weekly and monthly. Results show reductions in the quantity of marine debris in the post-MARPOL period. Several items identifiable with the offshore oil, commercial fishing, and merchant marine industries were reduced in quantity.
