Book Synopsis Maritime Salvage Operations and Environmental Protection by : Durand Martin Cupido
Download or read book Maritime Salvage Operations and Environmental Protection written by Durand Martin Cupido and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-20 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book questions the use of salvage law as legal regulatory framework for the remuneration of environmental services in salvage operations, proposing that such services should be based on direct contracting between commercial salvors and coastal States. Adopting an environment-first approach, it argues that direct contracting better serves and promotes environmental protection outcomes. It also takes a functional view of the law as a tool to promote values and sought outcomes. Salvage operations are recognised as the first line of defence against pollution following shipping incidents. Although regulated under the law of salvage, these operations form an integral component of a framework of environmental protection measures regulated under different legal instruments or laws. The law of salvage fails to effectively integrate salvage operations into broader pollution response mechanisms because it does not align comfortably with this framework of laws. Despite the emphasis on environmental protection in the 1989 London Salvage Convention, the Convention maintains the traditional notion of salvage operations as a service to property, while environmental outcomes and the remuneration of environmental services are positioned as a secondary outcome of the law of salvage. This book argues that directly contracting for environmental services bolsters the primacy of environmental protection and the functional use of law to further environmental protection and policy formulation. Direct contracting between coastal States and salvors for environmental services complements existing practices and pollution response mechanisms and provides a sound legal basis for the effective realisation of salvage operations as the first line of defence against pollution following shipping incidents without fundamentally altering the established commercial identity of the traditional law of salvage. This book will be key reading for students, academics, and practitioners working at the intersection of shipping and environmental law.

Download or read book In Peril written by Skip Strong and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2003-11-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Skip Strong, the thirty-two-year-old Captain of the 688-foot oil tanker Cherry Valley received the call, all he knew was that an ocean going tug with five men aboard was in distress off Florida's east coast. Caught in an unusually powerful storm, the tug's engines failed, and as the winds gusted to more than sixty miles per hour and the sea whipped into a frenzy, the tug--and the barge it was towing-- were in danger of being swept ashore. Captain Strong also knew that he would follow the age-old tradition of sea rescue. Coming to the aid of the crew, the tug, and its cargo, he would have to maneuver his ship--laden with 10 million gallons of oil-- in extremely hazardous conditions. One mistake and Strong would be responsible for an ecological disaster on Florida's beaches equal to that of the Exxon Valdez. What Captain Strong didn't know was that the tug was carrying a 150-foot aluminum fuel cell worth upwards of $50 million. And that in the instant he decided to rescue the tug and its crew, he was opening the door on a dramatic and tense legal struggle that would pit him against the United States Government for salvage rights.

Book Synopsis Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims by : Xia Chen
Download or read book Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims written by Xia Chen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Limitation of liability for maritime claims is an important system for the shipping industry. The original rationale for such a system was to encourage the shipping enterprise. However, in our today's much changed world, the system has been under severe attack and has been described as `hopelessly anachronistic'. Yet, the debate over repeal or retention of the system is far from settled. This book traces the history and development of limitation law around the world. It compares various limitation laws in operation under different legal regimes. In particular, it analytically scrutinizes the limitation systems under U.S. law, Chinese law and international conventions. It explores the possibility of international uniformity of maritime limitation law and points out that complete uniformity will not be achieved unless the United States joins the international community. It concludes that although there is a need for reform of the system, limitation of liability for maritime claims is here to stay. This book also thoroughly examines the limitation system under the Chinese legal regime through comparison with U.S. law and in the context of international conventions. Both practitioners and academic scholars will find this book helpful in understanding Chinese law in general and Chinese maritime limitation of liability in particular.

Book Synopsis International Commercial Arbitration and International Maritime Law from a German and Russian Perspective by : Alexander Trunk
Download or read book International Commercial Arbitration and International Maritime Law from a German and Russian Perspective written by Alexander Trunk and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2004 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains contributions to two joint seminars organized by the Universities of Kiel and St. Petersburg. Both international commercial arbitration and maritime law are characterized by a mixture of international and national sources. The two subjects are brought together here in one volume as maritime disputes often go to arbitration and both areas show, from a theoretical perspective, a number of interesting parallels and differences. Germany and Russia have ratified the major conventions in these fields, but many issues are left to domestic law and deserve a comparative evaluation.
