Terminal and Tanker Environmental 

Oversight Act of 1990, the Coast Guard 

may certify, on an annual basis, an 

alternative voluntary advisory group in 

lieu of a Regional Citizens’ Advisory 

Council for Cook Inlet, Alaska. This 

advisory group monitors the activities of 

terminal facilities and crude oil tankers 

under the Cook Inlet program 

established by the statute. The current 

certification for CIRCAC will expire 

August 31, 2008. 

DATES: Public comments on CIRCAC’s 

recertification application must reach 

the Seventeenth Coast Guard District on 

or before September 8, 2008. 

ADDRESSES: Comments should be

Juneau Federal Building, 709 West 9th 

Street, Room 753, Juneau, AK between 

8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through 

Friday, except Federal holidays. 

The Seventeenth Coast Guard District 

maintains the public docket for this 

recertification process. The application 

and comments regarding recertification 

will become part of this docket and will 

be available for inspection or copying at 

the Juneau Federal Building, 709 West 

9th Street, Room 753, Juneau, AK. 

A copy of the application will also be 

available for inspection at the CIRCAC

AK between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 

p.m., Monday through Friday, except 

Federal holidays. CIRCAC’s telephone 

number is (907) 283–7222. 

Do not use ‘‘Regulations.gov’’ for the

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: For questions 

on viewing or submitting material to the

Seventeenth Coast Guard District (dpi), 

(907) 463–2821. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Request for Comments 

The Coast Guard encourages 

interested persons to submit written 

data, views, or arguments. We solicit 

comments from interested groups 

including oil terminal facility owners 

and operators, owners and operators of 

crude oil tankers calling at terminal 

facilities, and fishing, aquacultural, 

recreational and environmental citizens’

groups, concerning the recertification 

application of CIRCAC. Persons 

submitting comments should include 

their names and addresses, identify this 

notice (USCG–2008–0754), the specific 

section of the document to which each 

comment applies, and give the reason 

for each comment. Please submit all 

comments and attachments in an 

unbound format, no larger than 81⁄2 by 

11 inches, suitable for copying and 

electronic filing. Persons wanting 

acknowledgement of receipt of 

comments should enclose a stamped, 

self-addressed postcard or envelope. 

The Coast Guard plans no public 

hearing. Persons may request a public 

hearing by writing to Commander (dp), 

Seventeenth Coast Guard District, P.O. 

Box 25517, Juneau, AK 99802–5517. 

The request should include reasons why 

a hearing would be beneficial. If there 

is sufficient evidence to determine that 

oral presentations will aid this 

recertification process, the Coast Guard 

will hold a public hearing at a time and 

place announced by a later notice in the 

Federal Register. 

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 citizens’ advisory councils by 

requiring applicants to provide 

comprehensive information every 3 

years. For the 2 years in between, 

applicants only submit information 

describing substantive changes to the 

information provided at the last 

triennial recertification. This is the year 

in this triennial cycle that CIRCAC must 

provide comprehensive information. 

At the conclusion of the comment 

period, September 8, 2008, the Coast 

Guard will review all application 

materials and comments received and 

will take one of the following actions: 

(a) Recertify the advisory group under 

33 U.S.C. 2732(o). 

(b) Issue a conditional recertification 

for a period of 90 days, with a statement 

of any discrepancies, which must be 

corrected to qualify for recertification 

for the remainder of the year. 

(c) Deny recertification of the advisory 

group if the Coast Guard finds that the 

group is not broadly representative of 

the interests and communities in the 

area or is not adequately fostering the 

goals and purposes of 33 U.S.C. 2732. 

The Coast Guard will notify CIRCAC 

by letter of the action taken on their 

respective applications. A notice will be 

published in the Federal Register to 

advise the public of the Coast Guard’s 

determination. 

Dated: July 17, 2008, 

Michael A. Neussl, 

Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Acting 

Commander, Seventeenth Coast Guard 

District.
