SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background and Purpose 

As part of the Oil Pollution Act of 

1990, Congress passed the Oil Terminal 

and Oil Tanker Environmental 

Oversight and Monitoring Act of 1990 

(the Act), 33 U.S.C. 2732, to foster a 

long-term partnership among industry, 

government, and local communities in 

overseeing compliance with 

environmental concerns in the 

operation of crude oil terminals and oil 

tankers. 

On October 18, 1991, the President 

delegated his authority under 33 U.S.C 

2732(o) to the Secretary of 

Transportation in Executive Order 

12777, section 8(g) (see 56 FR 54757) for 

purposes of certifying advisory councils, 

or groups, subject to the Act. On March 

3, 1992, the Secretary redelegated that 

authority to the Commandant of the 

Coast Guard (see 57 FR 8582). The 

Commandant redelegated that authority 

to the Chief, Office of Marine Safety, 

Security and Environmental Protection 

(G-M) on March 19, 1992 (letter #5402). 

On July 7, 1993, the Coast Guard
