[The Convention will be opened for signature from January 15, 1974 through December 31, 1974. The Convention includes five annexes and two protocols. Annexes III, IV, and V are so-called “optional annexes”, and a state may declare that it does not accept any one or all of these. Annex I (p. 1335) concerns the regulations for oil pollution prevention; Annex II (p. 1386) deals with the control of pollution by noxious liquid substances; Annex III (p. 1421) contains the regulations for the prevention of pollution by harmful substances carried in packaged forms; Annex IV (p. 1424), the regulations for the prevention of pollution by sewage from ships; Annex V (p. 1434), the regulations for the prevention of pollution by garbage from ships. Protocol I contains the provisions for reports on incidents involving harmful substances, and Protocol II concerns arbitration. These protocols appear respectively at pages 1439 and 1441.]
