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 was recently offered an opportunity to take my training through another company, but I politely declined. I only attend Lion Technology workshops.

The course was very well structured and covered the material in a clear, concise manner.

I was able to present my scenario to the instructor and worked thru the regulations together. In the past, I attended another training firm's classes. Now, I have no intention of leaving Lion!

The instructor was very knowledgeable and provided pertinent information above and beyond the questions that were asked.
Johnny Barton

The instructor was very engaging and helped less experienced people understand the concepts.

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

The instructor took a rather drab set of topics and brought them to life with realistic real-life examples.
