Editorial Notes

References in TextThe Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships, referred to in pars. (1) and (2), is Pub. L. 96–478, Oct. 21, 1980, 94 Stat. 2297, which is classified principally to chapter 33 (§ 1901 et seq.) of this title. For complete classification of this Act to the Code, see Short Title note set out under section 1901 of this title and Tables.

Amendments2025—Pub. L. 119–65, § 6(a), which directed amendment of this section by substituting “Under Secretary” for “Administrator”, could not be executed because the word “Administrator” did not appear. 2012—Pub. L. 112–213 struck out subsec. (a) designation and heading “Strategy” and struck out subsecs. (b) and (c) which required reports on the Coast Guard’s progress in implementing former subsec. (a) and on the effectiveness of international and national measures to prevent and reduce marine debris and its impact.
