Scholarly Research Paper from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, printed single-sided, grade: very good (distinction), European College of Business and Management (ECBM) London, 8 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Ten years after the disaster of the Agean Sea, the Galician coast is once again threatened by an oil spill. Ten years, during which no effective measures had been put in place to prevent such disasters. Prestige , a 26 year old single hull oil tanker carrying 77,000 metrics tons of heavy fuel oil, began to break up in mid-November 2002 near the coast of Spain s autonomous community of Galicia and towed out to sea, finally sinking 19th November at Cap Finisterre.

The nature conservation department of the Galician regional department, Xunta, is working systematically towards gearing its activities to manage this crisis.
