Maritime Administration 

Maritime Security Training Course

AGENCY: Maritime Administration 

(MARAD), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of availability of 

maritime security training course 

approval program. 

SUMMARY: The purpose of this notice is 

to announce a voluntary program for 

approval of maritime security training 

courses under the Maritime 

Transportation Security Act of 2002 

(MTSA). Training providers wishing to 

receive course approval are invited to 

submit applications under this program, 

which was developed jointly by 

MARAD and the United States Coast 

Guard (USCG). Training providers—

profit or non-profit—must be organized 

and authorized to conduct business 

under the Federal laws of the United 

States, or under the laws of any state of 

the United States, and they must 

conduct the training in the United 

States or aboard a United States flag 

vessel to be eligible for this program. 

There is no cost to training providers 

for course approval under this program; 

however, the program is subject to 

limited funding, and fees may be 

required when funding is exhausted. 

The goal of the program is to promote 

high quality, uniform training of 

maritime security professionals. Details 

of the program are available on the 

MARAD Web site: http://

www.marad.dot.gov.

DATES: Effective Date: This program is 

effective February 8, 2005.

Christopher E. Krusa, Office of Policy 

and Plans, Maritime Administration,

Web site: http://www://marad.dot.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

109 of the Maritime Transportation 

Security Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107–295) 

addressed the need for maritime 

security education and training to 

counter terrorist and other security 

threats involving the port, maritime, and 

intermodal transportation environment. 

Section 109 specifically charged the 

Secretary of Transportation with 

responsibility for fulfilling this need, 

requiring that ‘‘the Secretary shall 

develop standards and curriculum to 

allow for the training and certification 

of maritime security professionals.’’ The 

Secretary of Transportation found that 

MARAD had the expertise to develop 

and implement a program for the 

training and certification of maritime 

security professionals within its area of 

responsibility. Accordingly, on April 3, 

2003, the Secretary delegated the 

Section 109 security mandate to 

MARAD. 

At the request of the Maritime 

Administrator, the United States 

Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA) 

developed the required training 

standards and curriculum and prepared 

a report to Congress in May 2003. The 

report characterized security threats to 

the marine and intermodal 

transportation system; summarized 

relevant domestic legislation, 

international conventions, and other 

guidance; delineated key workforce 

development issues; described the 

project undertaken by MARAD in 

fulfillment of the Secretary’s Section 

109 responsibilities; presented the 

standards and curriculum developed in 

response to the MTSA mandate; and 

offered recommendations for the 

certification and oversight of maritime 

security education and training.
