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.

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!

I had a positive experience utilizing this educational program. It was very informative, convenient, and rewarding from a career perspective.

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.
Robert Brenner
District Environmental Manager
I can't say enough how pleased I was with this course! Everything finally makes sense.

This is the best RCRA training I've experienced! I will be visiting Lion training again.
Cynthia L. Logsdon
Principal Environmental Engineer
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
The exercises in the DOT hazardous materials management course are especially helpful in evaluating your understanding of course information.
Morgan Bliss
Principal Industrial Hygienist
The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

These are the best classes I attend each year. I always take something away and implement improvements at my sites.
Kim Racine
EH&S Manager
The workshop covered a lot of information without being too overwhelming. Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.
