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).
If I need thorough training or updating, I always use Lion. Lion is always the best in both instruction and materials.

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

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.

Having the tutorial buttons for additional information was extremely beneficial.

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

I like Lion's workshops the best because they really dig into the information you need to have when you leave the workshop.

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!

Best instructor ever! I was going to take my DOT training w/a different provider, but based on this presentation, I will also be doing my DOT training w/Lion!
