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.

Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.
Michael Britt
Supply Chain Director
I chose Lion's online webinar because it is simple, effective, and easily accessible.
Jeremy Bost
Environmental Health & Safety Technician
Lion's course was superior to others I have taken in the past. Very clear in the presentation and the examples helped to explain the content presented.
George Bersik
Hazardous Waste Professional
Attending Lion Technology classes should be mandatory for every facility that ships or stores hazmat.
Genell Drake
Outbound Lead
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 instructor was very knowledgeable and provided pertinent information above and beyond the questions that were asked.
Johnny Barton
Logistics Coordinator
The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.
Gary Hartzell
Warehouse Supervisor
The instructor created a great learning environment.
Avinash Thummadi
CAD & Environmental Manager
I was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.
Stephanie Gilliam
Material Production/Logistics Manager
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.

Manager, Dangerous Goods Transportation
