Ship groundings in the Pacific Islands region : issues and guidelines / by Garry L. Preston ...[et.al.].-- Apia, Western Samoa : SPREP, 1997.

The Strategy and Work Programme states that there is little information available on the level of shipping activities operating through, into, and within the region, and on the types of cargoes involved. Accordingly, the document proposes that a study of shipping activities in the region be carried out. Recent information suggests that the study may be funded through SPKEP in the foreseeable future.
