The measure provides for the condition that a fishing gear is considered lost and further provides for prohibition on release of plastics and release of other marine pollutants. The text further lays out the preventive measures for the abandonment, loss, or discard of fishing gear at sea; the release of garbage, and plastics, at sea.
