摘要

摘要美国军队自1944年抵达马绍尔群岛以来，对环境造成了广泛、致命和持久的危害。对美国和马绍尔群岛共和国具有约束力的《自由联合契约》造成了法律空白，允许在没有适当补救途径的情况下造成持续的伤害。马绍尔群岛和美国之间目前的《契约》重新谈判提供了一个机会，可以对过去的侵权行为提供充分的补救，并对目前和未来的污染追究责任。此外，立法途径仍然是解决目前剥夺马绍尔群岛补救办法的法律和资金缺口的替代手段。

Contamination and a Compact: Remediless Environmental Harm in the Marshall Islands

Abstract Since its arrival in the Marshall Islands in 1944, the United States military has caused widespread, deadly, and lasting environmental harm. The Compact of Free Association binding the United States and the Republic of the Marshall Islands creates legal gaps allowing for ongoing harm without an avenue for adequate remedy. Current Compact renegotiations between the Marshall Islands and the United States offer an opportunity to provide an adequate remedy for past abuses and accountability for ongoing and future contamination. Further, legislative avenues remain an alternate means of addressing the legal and funding gaps currently depriving the Marshall Islands of a remedy.

期刊介绍： The Environmental Claims Journal is a quarterly journal that focuses on the many types of claims and liabilities that result from environmental exposures. The ECJ considers environmental claims under older business insurance policies, coverage and claims under more recent environmental insurance policies, as well as toxic tort claims. Exposures and claims from all environmental media are considered: air, drinking water, groundwater, soil, chemicals in commerce and naturally occurring chemicals. The journal also considers the laws, regulations, and case law that form the basis for claims. The journal would be of interest to environmental and insurance attorneys, insurance professionals, claims professionals, and environmental consultants.
