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 each of the two years between the 
triennial application procedures, applicants submit a letter requesting 
recertification that includes a description of any substantive changes 
to the information provided at the previous triennial recertification. 
Further, public comment is only solicited during the triennial 
comprehensive review.

Recertification

    By letter dated June 29, 2022, the Commander, Seventeenth Coast 
Guard District, certified that the CIRCAC qualifies as an alternative 
voluntary advisory group under 33 U.S.C. 2732(o). This recertification 
terminates on August 31, 2023.

    Dated: July 1, 2022.
Nathan A. Moore,
Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Commander, Seventeenth Coast Guard 
District.
