This legal treatise discusses the environmental impact of oil pollution on the oil producing communities of Nigeria. A critical analysis of the statutory and regulatory provisions governing oil pollution in Nigeria and a brief comparison of the statutory provisions in Nigeria with those of the United States is undertaken. Throughout this research, the phrase "Niger Delta" is used interchangeably with the phrase "oil producing communities." This legal treatise examines the history of oil exploration and production in Nigeria and also explores the sources and effects of oil pollution. In addition, a cursory look at the friction among the stakeholders in the oil industry is analyzed and the National Oil Spill Contingency Plan (NOSCP) is discussed. A detailed study of the normative concepts and issues involved are achieved and the issue of corporate self-regulation as enunciated in ISO 14000 is assessed.
