The incidence of marine pollution on the adjacent sea of Japan for 1974 was recognized by Maritime Safety Agency to be 2,366 cases, extending the high level over 2000 since 1972. To cope with high incidence of marine pollution, maritime safety agency has been continuing its efforts to strengthen the system of watch and control by promoting the equipping of patrol ships and boats, and airplanes, as well as providing waste oil desposal facilities over the country for disposing waste oil originating within ships.
