NO This report documents a training workshop addressing land-based oil discharges to coastal waters and their ecological consequences within the regional marine environment of East and Southeast Asia. The document outlines the context of increasing coastal pollution from land-based sources and the need to strengthen technical and management capacity among participating countries. It describes the objectives, structure, and proceedings of the workshop held in Penang in April 1996, including lectures, case studies, and discussions on sources of oil contamination, environmental impacts on coastal and marine ecosystems, monitoring approaches, and management responses. The report also summarises country presentations, technical exchanges among participants, and recommendations aimed at improving regional understanding, prevention measures, and management practices for controlling land-based oil discharges affecting coastal waters.
