SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Towing Safety Advisory Committee is a
federal advisory committee which
operates under the provisions of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, (Title
5, United States Code, Appendix). It was
established under authority of the Act to
establish a Towing Safety Advisory
Committee in the Department of
Transportation, (Pub. L. 96–380), which
was recently amended by section 621 of
the Coast Guard Authorization Act of
2010, (Pub. L. 111–281). The Committee
advises the Secretary of Homeland
Security on matters relating to shallowdraft inland and coastal waterway
navigation and towing safety. This
advice also assists the Coast Guard in
formulating the position of the United
States regarding the towing industry in
advance of International Maritime
Organization meetings.
It is expected that the committee will
meet at least twice a year either in the
Washington, DC, area or in cities with
large towing centers of commerce and
populated by high concentrations of
towing industry and related businesses.
It may also meet for extraordinary
purposes. Its subcommittees may also
meet to consider specific tasks as
required. The Committee and its
subcommittees may conduct
intercessional telephonic meetings
when necessary, in response to specific
U.S. Coast Guard tasking.
Each Towing Safety Advisory
Committee member serves a term of
office of up to 3 years. Members may be
considered to serve an additional
consecutive term. All members serve
without compensation from the Federal
Government; however, upon request,
they may receive travel reimbursement
and per diem.
We will consider applications for the
following seven positions. The first
position listed is currently vacant, and
the rest will become vacant on
September 30, 2017:
1. One position representing the
holders of active licensed Masters of
towing vessels in offshore service;
2. Two positions representing the
Barge and Towing Industry (reflecting a
regional geographical balance);
3. One position representing port
districts, port authorities or terminal
operators;
4. One position representing holders
of active licensed Masters or Pilots of
towing vessels with experience on the
Western Rivers and the Gulf Intracoastal
Waterway;

Guard may not release the reports or the

Designated Coast Guard Ethics Official
or his or her designee may release a
Confidential Financial Disclosure
Report. Applicants can obtain this form
by going to the Web site of the Office of

the general public that are not
accompanied by a completed OGE Form
450 will not be considered.
In an effort to maintain a geographic
balance of membership, we are
encouraging representatives from tug
and barge companies operating on the
Western Rivers to apply for
representation on the Committee.

Security does not discriminate in
