항만국통제는(Port State Control)은 자국 항만 또는 수역 내에서 기준미달선을 제거하기 위하여 선박이 외국항에 기항하였을 때 해당 항만국의 검사관(Port State Control Officer)이 승선하여 그 선박이 국제협약 또는 항만국의 규정에 적합하게 건조, 정비 및 운용되고 있는지를 확인하고 결함사항이 발견된 선박에 대하여 억류 등의 제제조치를 가하는 제도이다. 최근의 항만국통제는 기항 선박에 대한 Target Matrix를 활용한 점검대상 선박 선정, 집중점검프로그램 운용 및 목표 점검율 상향조정 등으로 항만국통제 활동은 점점 더 강화되고 있다. 우리공단 검사선박의 경우 PSC에 의한 출항정지 척수가 2006년 1척, 2007년 2척 그리고 2008년 4척으로 점차 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 따라서 공단 검사선박의 출항정지율 저감을 위한 방안을 개발하기 위하여 Paris MOU, Tokyo MOU 그리고 USCG의 최근 PSC 점검동향과 우리 공단의 검사선박중 출항정지 선박 및 지적된 결함사항에 대하여 조사 분석한 결과 최근 7년간 출항정지 당한 선박 10척중 6척이 도입선과 2척이 탈급선이고 그리고 주요 지적사항으로는 만재흘수선 관련 결함사항이 가장 많이 지적되었음으로 분석되었다. 따라서 그러한 분석 결과를 바탕으로 공단 검사선박의 출항정지율 저감을 위한 대책을 검토하고 새로 도입되거나 개선되어야 할 점 등에 대한 안을 제시하였다.

Many Countries have made efforts to assist ships navigate accurately , safely and expeditiously for the safety control against increasing marine traffic , in their coastal waters. However, they are exposed in spite of these efforts,to risks of casulaties and marine polluation caused by traffic congestion when ships are navigating through waterways approaches to ports or harbors and in narrow fairways. Therefore, efficient control of VTS in Port is necessary nowadays to provide ships with necessary service , which interacts with shipping and organize the flow of traffic so as to maximize the efficiency of the port or harbor while minimizing the risk of accident and environmental pollution. Even though the navigation condition of ships is very inferior compared to other ports in Korea, such as the big difference between the ebb and flood tide, the frequent fog, the narrow fairway , the density of navigation traffic in Inchon Port is high and transportation quantity of dangerous cargoe increases gradually. In cosideration of the characteristics of natural circumstance and traffic circumstance the VTS established newly in Inchon port have to operate efficiently. The purpose of this study is to help efficient operation of VTS in Inchon port by accomplishing both the literature research and questionnaire survey. Questionnaire survey was read to the VTS personnel in Inchon Port and customer familiar to Inchon Port such as ship navigators, pilots, shipping companies and so on. Most of ship navigators who occupy half of the respondents are Korean Officer who had responded while they were calling at Inchon port. The conclusions and recommendations includes ; First, the service area should be extended over Designated area to provide the vessel with navigational assistance service regarding the information of traffic congestion area, fishing boat and small ship's activities. Second, the types of information service to be offered are ship's movement and weather condition inthe vicinity of the port and state of fairway in the approaching channel to thte fairway. Third, VTS personnel should be upgraded by the on-the-job training and continuous simulation training as well as supplement of the qualified personnel for VTS operation. Fourth , the Harbor Master System to be introduced for safe navigation and efficient port operation.

The purpose of this thesis is studying for a legal basis and definition of Oil Record Book. In the thesis, comparing with the laws related to punishment for false entry of Oil Record Book of the maritime countries and korea Act. Studying the improvement marine pollutants from ships by suggesting legal and institutional proposal which are able to make themselves increase effectiveness for recording and inspection of Oil Record Book. Suggest the solution of the problems raised in this thesis, First, The Oil Record Book should not be the evidence which is having the effectiveness simply after the accident of marine pollution, but take sanction on pre-inspection of Oil Record Book as establish the concrete administrative punishment for each contents-based record of Oil Record Book. Second, It should set up of judgement criteria of false entry of Oil Record Book by port state control officer. Third, It should strengthen the legal effectiveness of Oil Record Book contents such as Code(c) ; oil residue, Code(d); relating to bilge discharge by including premeditation for false entry of Oil Record Book. Also, The enhancement of role for marine pollution prevention manager raise the effectiveness of Oil Record Book as recognizing the importance of Oil Record Book.

Based on the data of PSC information management system of MOF(Ministry of oceans and fisheries) and APCIS(Asia-Pacific Computerized Information System) of Tokyo-MOU information system, the result of the evaluation on the reality of PSC was done, and base on 2009, it showed a trend of decrease in every DFR(Deficiency Rate) and DTR(Detention Rate). But for vessels built for more than 30 years, flags of convenience vessels, RO-RO ferry and general cargo vessel, small size vessels with gross tonnage less than 1,000 ton showed a high DFR and DTR. Each harbours is classified by the total harbours' average DFR which was 82.5 % and the average DTR was 5.1 %, excluding the Jeju harbour, showing a hugh deviation for classification of each harbour. Classification of each harbour has to be inspected by PSC and it showed a great unbalance of the number of vessels for each territory for inspection. the biggest problem with our country's PSC, where it was pointed out by the PSCO was lack of workers and independent inspection by just one worker. To strength the substantiality of the inspection of our country is to have concentrated inspection on the high risk cautious vessels, forming a human network each classified by four different sectors of the area, recalculating the amount of assignment of inspection classified by each harbour and securing workforce the PSCO improvements are necessary.
