Coast Guard Forms Chemical Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC)
Posted on 6/14/2011 by James Griffin
The U.S. Coast Guard is establishing a Chemical Transportation Advisory Committee (CTAC) to advise the Department of Homeland Security and the Guard on the safe and secure transportation of hazardous materials in bulk.
The Committee will include up to 25 members from chemical manufacturers, marine transport operators, vessel design and construction companies, marine safety or security companies, and marine environmental protection groups, all of whom are appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the Secretary of Homeland Security.
The CTAC may conduct studies, inquiries, workshops, and seminars at the direction or under the authorization of the Commandant of the Coast Guard. The unique industry perspective of the Committee will provide critical support to the USCG’s efforts to ensure the safety of the U.S. Merchant Marine.
For more information, see the Federal Register announcement (76 FR 34240).
Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.

EHS Manager
I have over 26 years of environmental compliance experience, and it has been some time since I have attended an environmental regulations workshop. I attended this course as preparation for EHS Audits for my six plants, and it was exactly what I was looking for.
Frank Sizemore
Director of Regulatory Affairs
Excellent course. Very interactive. Explanations are great whether you get the questions wrong or right.
Gregory Thompson
Environmental, Health & Safety Regional Manager
The instructor does a great job at presenting material in an approachable way. I have been able to save my company about $30,000 in the last year with what I have learned from Lion!
Curtis Ahonen
EHS&S Manager
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.
Troy Yonkers
HSES Representative
The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.
Steve Gall

Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.
Michael Britt
Supply Chain Director
Lion's course was superior to others I have taken in the past. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented.
George Bersik

I chose Lion's online webinar because it is simple, effective, and easily accessible.
Jeremy Bost
Environmental Health & Safety Technician
The training was impressive. I am not a fan of online training but this was put together very well. I would recommend Lion to others.
