  "bluf": "The International Convention on the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage, 1992 (Fund Convention 1992) establishes the International Oil Pollution Compensation Funds (IOPC Funds), which provide supplementary compensation for oil pollution damage from persistent oil spills from tankers where the shipowner's liability under the Civil Liability Convention 1992 (CLC 1992) is insufficient to cover the actual damage. The IOPC Funds are funded by contributions levied on entities that receive more than 150,000 tonnes of contributing oil (crude oil and heavy fuel oil) per year in Fund Member States. The 1992 Fund provides compensation up to approximately SDR 203 million per incident (combined CLC 1992 + Fund 1992 limit). The 2003 Supplementary Fund Protocol, in force since 3 March 2005, provides an additional third tier of compensation up to SDR 750 million per incident in Protocol Member States. The IOPC Funds are administered by the International Oil Pollution Compensation Funds Secretariat based in London.",
