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).
The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.

Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!

Very witty instructor, made the long times sitting bearable. One of the few training courses I can say I actually enjoyed.
John Hutchinson

I can't say enough how pleased I was with this course! Everything finally makes sense.

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

My experience with Lion classes has always been good. Lion Technology always covers the EPA requirements I must follow.
Steven Erlandson
Environmental Coordinator
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.

Energetic/enthusiastic! Made training enjoyable, understandable and fun!

This course went above my expectations from the moment I walked in the door. The instructor led us through two days packed with useful compliance information.
Rachel Stewart

My experience with Lion training, both online and in the classroom, is that they are far better organized and provide a better sequential explanation of the material.
