  1. A series of assessments will be made on a regular basis to monitor human influence on Antarctica.
  2. Controls are in place to regulate the admittance of any plant or animal life not endemic to the continent. It also severely limits the amount of contact humans have with indigenous flora and fauna.
  3. The third rule limits the kind and amounts of waste present on the continent. This includes chemicals, fuels, and plastic. In this manner, human-made pollutants cannot harm the environment.
  4. This important rule prohibits ships traveling within the Antarctic Treaty area from throwing away or discarding chemicals, oil, trash, or toxic waste into the ocean. It also places limits on how food waste can be removed from ships.
  5. Finally, the Madrid Protocol has designated specific areas (Antarctic Specially Protected Areas) on the continent that are distinct ecosystems or historic sites. Admittance to these regions is highly regulated and takes special permits.
