The soil and coastal waters of the island polluted by substances such as lead, depleted uranium and arsenic, whose presence was a serious threat to public health needed urgent decontamination.

Contamination from toxic military waste, including depleted uranium, was a serious problem in Vieques and the draft resolution should require that the United States Government should fully cover the decontamination costs.

The Panel notes that the presence of mines and other ordnance initially prevented the removal of nearby oil contamination, and reconstruction operations in the oil fields further delayed remediation efforts.

Which means pollution is not inevitable.

The risk is microbial and viral contamination.

The removal of non strategic weapons would represent significant savings in terms of security and storage costs, constitute a valuable contribution to nuclear disarmament and improve regional and international security.

Every year from 1994 to 1999, Japan submitted to the United Nations General Assembly a draft resolution calling for nuclear disarmament with a view to the ultimate elimination of nuclear weapons.
