The Effect of Coast Guard Maritime Security Rules on EPA-Regulated Facilities
Overview The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) published final rules on October 22, 2003, to implement the security requirements of the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002. The preambles to the rules clarify the relationship between EPA requirements for oil spill prevention, preparedness, and response and USCG requirements for marine security. Although the two agencies have initiated steps to facilitate coordination of planning efforts and area exercises for spill response and security, much of the day-to-day work will be performed in the field by regional or district staff. This paper introduces approaches that EPA can take to continue coordination with USCG and to assist regulated facilities in complying with these new requirements.
