Chairman's Message Marine Pollution Prevention Act No 59 of 1981 was repealed and a new act of Parliament was enacted in August 2008. It is titled as Marine Pollution Prevention Act; No 35 of 2008 and came into operation on 01.01.2009 by order published in the Gazette by the Minister in Charge. That was a land mark in the history of Marine Environment Protection Authority [MEPA] making the year 2009 unique. Marine Pollution Prevention Act; No 35 of 2008 which came into operation on 01.01.2009 expose lot of areas under the authority of MEPA to protect marine environment. According to the act the authority finalized drafting of 18 regulations which are more important legal provision for the protecting of marine environment. The authority started the project with Sri Jayawardana Pura University to measure the Ballast water impact on Colombo port during the year. This was an initial step to implement the Ballas water convention. Sri Lanka experienced for the first time, a chemical spill when MT GRANBA, a Turkish chemical tanker sank with 6,250 metric tons of concentrated sulphuric acid in April 2009 in the eastern waters of Sri Lanka. Though it was handled reasonably within the new legal framework, which was an eye opener reminding us the absolute need for emergency preparedness, which Sri Lanka is seriously falling behind. This was an offence punishable under Section 26 of Marine Pollution Prevention Act No.35 of 2008. As per Section 50 of the Act, Attorney General, (instructed by the Legal Division/MEPA) appeared for MEPA and the judgment was delivered in May, 2010 ordering the Accused to pay a fine of LKR10 M under section 26 of the Act. Further a sum of $ 50,000 (LKR 5.6 M) was received by MEPA from the Accused in Civil Liability (Section 34 of the Act) as an out of Court settlement. This was a major achievement in the year 2010. As for the performance, achievements are 99% as against the funds provided. MEPA is proud of the performance of the year under review. It is proud that the authority income is rapidly increased during the year in compared with last few years. We are planning to continue this trend in the year to come.

Investigations were carried out to check the quality of sea water on the Beruwala – Moragalla coastal
belt for suitability for bathing. For this purpose water samples from 08 locations in a 01 km stretch
in the Moragalla beach were tested. These tests have shown that, the maximum permissible level of
fecal coliform bacteria in water is exceeded very rapidly. The cause for this could be the improper
release of waste water/sewage with human excreta in an illegal manner from land based sources
directly or through the Benthota River
