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).
I really enjoy your workshops. Thank you for such a great program and all the help Lion has provided me over the years!

I like the consistency of Lion workshops. The materials are well put together and instructors are top notch!
Kevin Pylka
Permitting, Compliance & Environmental Manager
The instructor was excellent. They knew all of the material without having to read from a notepad or computer.
Gary Hartzell
Warehouse Supervisor
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
More thorough than a class I attended last year through another company.
Troy Yonkers
HSES Representative
I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.
Mark Abell
Regional Manager
The instructor created a great learning environment.
Avinash Thummadi
CAD & Environmental Manager
Much better than my previous class with another company. The Lion instructor made sense, kept me awake and made me laugh!
Marti Severs
Enterprise Safety Manager
The workshop covered a lot of information without being too overwhelming. Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.
George Alva
Manufacturing Manager
Given the choice, I would do all coursework this way. In-person courses go very fast without the opportunity to pause or repeat anything.
