of the Continental Shelf, in accordance with Article 76, paragraph 8, of the
Convention, information on the limits of the continental shelf beyond 200

without prejudice to any future submission by [the Republic of Korea] defining
the outer limits of its continental shelf in other areas."
In accordance with the
Rules of Procedure of the Commission, a communication is being circulated to all
Member States of the United Nations, as well as States Parties to the
Convention, in order to make public the executive summary of the Submission,
including all charts and coordinates contained in that summary.
