Forum
U.S. may finally ratify the UN Law of the Sea
provided by Adrienne Froelich
The move to have the U.S. ratify the Law of the Sea is finally
gaining momentum. The U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy issued a call
for the treaty's ratification in early 2001 as their first official
task. Now, two years later, the Senate is showing signs that
ratification may occur soon. On October 14 and 21, the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee held two hearings on the treaty. During these
hearings, the committee heard the views of a diverse array of
interests and government officials (see
http://foreign.senate.gov/hearing.html for witness lists and
testimony).
