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).
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!

I used the IT support number available and my issue was resolved within a few minutes. I don't see anything that could have made it better.

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.
Robert Roose
Manager, Dangerous Goods Transportation
The workshop covered a lot of information without being too overwhelming. Lion is much better, more comprehensive than other training providers.

Excellent class, super instructor, very easy to follow. No rushing through material. Would like to take his class again.

I can't say enough how pleased I was with this course! Everything finally makes sense.

Our instructor was very dynamic and kept everyone's interest. Hazmat shipping can be a dry, complicated topic but I was engaged the entire time.

Senior Director of EH&S
No comparison. Lion has the best RCRA training ever!!

I tried other environmental training providers, but they were all sub-standard compared to Lion. I will not stray from Lion again!

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