A study was performed to evaluate the size, cargo capacity, and flag nation of tankers transporting oil or hazardous substances on the navigable waters and the waters of the Exclusive Economic Zone by: (1) identifying changes occurring in such size and cargo capacity and in vessel navigation and technology over the 20 year period from 1970 to 1990; and (2) evaluating the extent to which the risks or difficulties associated with tanker navigation, vessel traffic control, accidents, oil spills, and the containment and cleanup of such spills are influenced by or related to an increase in the tanker size and cargo capacity.
