This certification allows the CIRCAC to monitor the activities of terminal facilities and crude oil tankers under the Cook Inlet Program established by the Oil Terminal and Oil Tanker Environmental Oversight and Monitoring Act of 1990. PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 This recertification is effective for the period from September 1, 2020, through August 31, 2021. DATES: For information about this document, call or email LT Lauren Bloch, Seventeenth Coast Guard District (dpi), by phone at (907) 463–2812 or email at Lauren.E.Bloch@uscg.mil. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background and Purpose The Coast Guard published guidelines on December 31, 1992 (57 FR 62600), to assist groups seeking recertification under the Oil Terminal and Oil Tanker Environmental Oversight and Monitoring Act of 1990 (33 U.S.C. 2732) (the Act). The Coast Guard issued a policy statement on July 7, 1993 (58 FR 36504), to clarify the factors that the Coast Guard would be considering in making its determination as to whether advisory groups should be certified in accordance with the Act, and the procedures which the Coast Guard would follow in meeting its certification responsibilities under the Act. Most recently, on September 16, 2002 (67 FR 58440), the Coast Guard changed its policy on recertification procedures for regional citizen’s advisory council by requiring applicants to provide comprehensive information every three years. For the two years in between, applicants only submit information describing substantive changes to the information provided at the last triennial recertification. This is the year in the triennial cycle in which CIRCAC provided comprehensive information on its application for recertification. The Coast Guard solicited public comments on CIRCAC recertification through a Notice; Request for comments published on June 11, 2020, titled ‘‘Application for Recertification of Cook Inlet Regional Citizens’ Advisory Council’’ (85 FR 35658). Discussion of Comments On June 11, 2020, the Coast Guard published a Notice; Request for comments titled ‘‘Application for Recertification of Cook Inlet Regional Citizens’ Advisory Council’’ in the Federal Register (85 FR 35658). We received 39 comments, all in support of the CIRCAC recertification. No public meeting was requested. The comments consistently cited CIRCAC’s broad representation of the respective communities’ interest, appropriate actions to keep the public informed, improvements to both spill response preparation and spill prevention, and oil spill industry monitoring efforts that E:\FR\FM\08SEN1.SGM 08SEN1
