This regulation prohibits the use of specific hazardous substances in antifouling paints used on underwater surfaces. It aims to prevent toxic chemicals from leaching into the water, thereby protecting marine ecosystems and public health from pollution. This affects ship owners, boat manufacturers, and producers of marine coatings who must ensure that underwater paints comply with safety standards and do not contain banned hazardous materials.
