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).
Lion was very responsive to my initial questions and the website was user friendly.

The instructor was probably the best I ever had! He made the class enjoyable, was humorous at times, and very knowledgeable.

This is a very informative training compared to others. It covers everything I expect to learn and even a lot of new things.

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.

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!

The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.

The instructor kept the class engaged and made learning fun. There was a lot of information to cover but time flew by. I will definitely use Lion in the future!

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

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!
