About this statute

This provision is the preamble: it says the law implements parts of several EU directives, states the law’s purpose, lists who and what it covers, defines key terms, and gives the environment minister some rule-making powers. Oil discharge is banned in Danish territorial waters; outside those waters it is only allowed under rules made under the section. The Environment Minister may set detailed rules on classification, discharge, treatment, permits, inspections, fees, and disposal related to bulk substances, ballast water, sewage, waste, and dredged material. Section 26 allows some ministerial rulemaking and agreements, but bans burning substances or materials at sea, with limited exceptions. Miljøministeren kan fastsætte regler om forurening, beredskab, rapportering og godkendelser. Nogle aktører får også pligter, bl.a. dokumentation for brændstof, beredskabsplaner og hurtig handling ved olie- eller kemikalieforurening.
