PREVENTION OF DUMPING. The 1984 Tuvalu Forum did not stipulate that the Treaty should prohibit the dumping of radioactive waste at sea. The decision to include Article 7, prohibiting dumping of such waste, reflects the growing concern of Forum members that their region should not be used as a dumping site. Henceforth the radioactive waste generated by many Forum members in medical, industrial and research activities will have to be disposed of on land, or exported from the region for disposal elsewhere. The dumping of “high-level radioactive wastes” at sea is already prohibited by the London Dumping Convention. Nauru and Kiribati, with support from other Forum members who are also parties to that Convention (notably Australia and New Zealand) are currently attempting to amend it to have it also prohibit the dumping of waste containing lesser levels of radioactivity. A moratorium was declared in 1983 on the dumping at sea of all radioactive wastes while the proposal is considered. In the South Pacific, the question of dumping has also been scrutinised during several rounds of negotiations on a draft “Convention for the Protection and Development of the Natural Resources and Environment of the South Pacific Region” and associated protocols. The negotiations have included all members of the South Pacific Commission, a regional organisation composed of Forum members as well as France, the United Kingdom and the United States — the last three qualifying because of their possession of territories in the South Pacific. The working group did not want to complicate those negotiations since they include states that not only play a major role in the LDC debate, but also are among the only states that might want to undertake major radioactive waste dumping operations in the region. The negotiations will therefore lead, if successful, to a Convention containing a generally accepted prohibition on dumping. So the working group chose not to draft a protocol to the SPNFZ Treaty inviting non­ Forum members to agree not to dump within the zone. It made that choice in recognition of the fact that such a move might have been seen to reflect a lack of commitment to the continuing negotiations. Similarly, the Treaty does not oblige parties to prevent dumping of radioactive wastes in their exclusive economic zones in addition to their territorial seas, although they have the power to do so under Article 210(5) of UNCLOS.
