MITAGS-PMI NEW COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT

INTRODUCTION TO ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS IN THE MARITIME
INDUSTRY / EPA GENERAL PERMIT FOR COMMERCIAL VESSELS

MITAGS will be hosting a two-day seminar designed to keep the marine community abreast of the rapid changes in marine environmental regulations. Day 1 provides a detailed overview of changes in both domestic and international regulations. Day 2 focuses on how to develop and submit an EPA “vessel general permit.” The VGP is now required for most vessel operating in U.S. waters. Additionally, ample time will be available to help answer operational questions about implementing these new regulations.

Interested individuals can enroll on line, contact Mary Matlock at Admissions at admission-at-mitags.org, or call 866-656-5568.

The tuition is $550 for both days and $275 for one day. The rate includes lunch and breaks.

I had the opportunity to sit in on Day One of this course and can highly recommend it as an overview of the many environmental regulations affecting marine operations.
