Foreword
前言

In 1967, the oil tanker “Torrey Canyon” was grounded at south west coast of U.K. and lead to a massive crude oil spillage. This is the first serious marine pollution disaster in the world and directly led to the development of the “International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships” (MARPOL 1973), the Amoco Cadiz triggered the adoption of the 1978 Protocol relating to this convention.
1967年，油輪“Torrey Canyon”在英國西南外海觸礁，造成了大量原油外洩，這是全世界首次發生嚴重的海洋污染災難，也因此直接催生了「防止船舶污染國際公約」1973 (MARPOL 1973)的問世。

In 1978, the oil tanker “Amoco Cadiz” encountered harsh weather at the Bay of Biscay and consequently ran aground due to steering gear failure. This accident was set a world record of oil spillage scale, and it only took IMO a few months to work out the amendment of MARPOL 1978 protocol to lay the foundation of MARPOL 73/78 in current version.
1978年，油輪“Amoco Cadiz”在法國比斯開灣外海遭遇惡劣天候，最後因舵機故障導致觸礁，這起意外也創下了全世界最嚴重的原油洩漏紀錄，在事件發生後幾個月內，IMO組織很快地就對MARPOL公約修訂了1978議定書，奠定了目前MARPOL 73/78公約的雛型基礎。

In 2001, a vessel belonging to a well-known Taiwanese shipping company, the "M.V. XXXX Group", was prosecuted in a U.S. federal court for allegedly discharging waste oily water into the Columbia River in Washington State. Shortly thereafter, the Washington Department of Ecology (WDOE) discovered that the crew of another of the company's vessels, the "XXXX Given", had illegally discharged untreated waste oily water directly into the sea using a bypass pipe. The violations by these two ships led the U.S. Coast Guard to prioritize inspections of the company's entire fleet vessels at U.S. ports. Eventually, the company discovered that at least seven of its vessels, including the XXXX Dainty, XXXX Refine, XXXX Gleeful, XXXX Laurel, and XXXX Reward, were suspected of long-term and habitual use of bypass pipes to circumvent shipboard pollution prevention equipment and directly discharge oily wastewater and waste oil into the sea. The company also allegedly falsified records in the "Oil Record Book" to deceive U.S. Coast Guard inspections.
2001年，台灣某知名海運公司屬輪「X群」輪(XXXX Group)因涉嫌在美國華盛頓州的哥倫比亞河排放廢油水被美國聯邦法院起訴，緊接著此案發生後不久，美國「華盛頓州生態管理署」(WDOE)又在該公司其他屬輪「X賜」輪(XXXX Given)發現船員使用旁通管路將未經處理的廢油水非法直接排海。這兩艘船的違法案件導致美國海巡署決定在美國各港口，將該公司旗下的所有船隊都列為重點檢查對象，最後包括「X群、X賜」在內，陸續發現「X美、X晶、X道、X冠、X勳」等輪(XXXX Dainty, XXXX Refine, XXXX Gleeful, XXXX Laurel, and XXXX Reward)，至少有7艘該公司屬輪涉嫌長期且慣性的使用旁通管路，以規避船上防止污染設備而直接將含油廢水及廢油排放入海，並且涉嫌在「油料紀錄簿」紀錄上造假，以欺瞞美國海巡署的檢查。

In 2005, after four years of lengthy legal proceedings, the company entered into a plea agreement with a US court, resulting in a US$25 million fine. This was the largest fine ever imposed for oil pollution case in shipping industry. As a condition of probation, the company was required to develop a detailed “Environmental Compliance Plan” (ECP) to prevent further violations. Furthermore, all of the company's vessels calling at US ports were subject to external audits, with court-appointed monitors assessing compliance.
2005年，經過4年的冗長法律訴訟，該公司透過「認罪協議」，被美國法院判決需罰款兩千五百萬美元，這是航運史上最高額的船舶污染罰款，並且要求該公司必須擬定一個詳細的「環境遵守計畫」(Environmental Compliance Plan，簡稱ECP)作為緩刑的條件，以防止再度發生任何違法情事。同時該公司所有靠泊美國港口的屬輪，都將接受外部機構的稽核檢查以供法院指定的監督人評估其執行成效。

In 2009, after three years of rigorous scrutiny, the company successfully released itself from US court oversight. Despite the damage to its reputation and substantial fines, the company, having learned its lesson, decided not relax its strict ECP practices even after the end of the oversight period. In same year, the company renamed the “ECP” into "Environmental Protection Plan" (EP Plan), maintaining strict compliance across its fleet and strengthening environmental awareness training for its crew. The EP Plan's practices are primarily based on the MARPOL Convention. Therefore, with rising environmental awareness and increasingly stringent environmental regulations worldwide, mariners must strictly adhere to the regulations of MARPOL Convention when performing any environmental operations on board to avoid substantial fines or even criminal penalties.
2009年，在歷經了為期三年的嚴格稽查之後，該公司終於成功地解除了美國法院的監管，在歷經了商譽受損及巨額罰金損失之後，該公司痛定思痛，在監管期結束後，並未因此而對船隊嚴格執行的ECP操作有所鬆懈。同年，該公司將ECP作業計劃改名為「環境保護計畫」(EP Plan)，繼續要求屬輪船隊嚴格執行，並持續加強船員們的環保意識教育訓練，而EP Plan各項環保操作的法源依據，主要就是根據MARPOL公約的規定。因此，在環保意識抬頭且各國環保法規日趨嚴苛的今日，船員在船上執行任何環保操作都必須嚴格遵守MARPOL公約的相關法規，以避免巨額罰款甚至刑法處份。
