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 course was very well structured and covered the material in a clear, concise manner.

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

Very well structured, comprehensive, and comparable to live training seminars I've participated in previously. I will recommend the online course to other colleagues with training requirement needs.

Lion is easily and consistently the best option for compliance training. I've learned new information from every instructor I've had.

I think LION does an excellent job of any training they do. Materials provided are very useful to my day-to-day work activities.

The exercises in the DOT hazardous materials management course are especially helpful in evaluating your understanding of course information.

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!

I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.
