초국경적 환경오염원으로부터 해양환경 보호의무에 관한 국제법적 연구 = A Study on the Duty to Protect the Marine Environment from Sources of Transboundary Pollution under International Law

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study is to examine the responsibility for marine discharge of radioactive contaminated water under international law, and to examine the significance of marine discharge of contaminated water from Fukushima nuclear power plant, which is expected in 2023. The contents and legal structure of the actual laws and regulations. To this end, we analyzed marine environmental pollution and under the contents and legal structure of the actual laws and regulations to clarify the phenomena and definitions. We tried to examine examples of practical applications based on the Fukushima nuclear accident. The Fukushima nuclear accident is not just a nuclear accident, but shows the dangers of a society when relying on nuclear energy. This discussion could be an approach to environmental issues beyond mankind marine pollution and its impact.
Therefore, in this paper, analysis was conducted focusing on international agreements for research. Conventions that have become the center of research are the 1972 London Convention, the 1996 London Protocol, two international conventions.
This study is based on the analysis of marine environmental pollution and nuclear power plant accident liability analysis revealed through the previous discussion, the problem of ocean discharge of contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant, scheduled for 2023, was considered. In particular, after reviewing the overview including the background of the discharge of polluted water to the sea, I reviewed the current status of countermeasures for the discharge of polluted water and the related future tasks. In addition, analyzed the pros and cons of the discharge of polluted water according to the rationale. Also, examined Contaminated marine emissions discussed at the Conference of Parties to the London Convention and Protocol and significance of environmental impact assessment that can act as a precautionary measure such as environmental assessment of the release of radioactive contaminated water into the ocean.
In conclusion, it should be possible to emphasize the meaning of information disclosure and cooperation as a national activity and development of guidelines for the London Convention and Protocol to effectively regulate the release of radioactive contaminated water to the sea. In addition, in accordance with diverse attempts under international law to prevent this in advance, it is necessary to take a lead towards Japan’s release of radioactive contaminated water through cooperative and systematic research between countries in the Pacific.
