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

I have been to other training companies, but Lion’s material is much better and easier to understand.

The instructor's energy, enthusiasm, and knowledge of the subject make the class a great learning experience!

Excellent job. Made what is very dry material interesting. Thoroughly explained all topics in easy-to-understand terms.
David Hertvik

I attended training from another provider and learned absolutely nothing. Lion is much better. Hands down.

Excellent. I learned more in two days with Lion than at a 5-day program I took with another provider.
Francisco Gallardo
HES Technician
We have a very busy work schedule and using Lion enables us to take the course at our own time. It makes it easy for me to schedule my employees' training.

The price was reasonable, the time to complete the course was manageable, and the flexibility the online training allowed made it easy to complete.

Excellent course. Very interactive. Explanations are great whether you get the questions wrong or right.
