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.

Well designed and thorough program. Excellent summary of requirements with references. Inclusion of regulations in hard copy form, as well as full electronic with state pertinent regulations included is a great bonus!

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.

I attended training from another provider and learned absolutely nothing. Lion is much better. Hands down.

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

Lion courses always set the bar for content, reference, and practical application. Membership and access to the experts is an added bonus.

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

Lion's online training is more comprehensive, has better slides, and is a superior training experience than what I would get from other trainers.

This was the 1st instructor that has made the topic actually enjoyable and easy to follow and understand. Far better than the "other" training providers our company has attended!

The instructor was energetic and made learning fun compared to dry instructors from other training providers.
