Authority
Section 102 of the Maritime
Transportation Security Act (MTSA) of
2002 (Pub. L. 107–295) added section
70112 to Title 46 of U.S. Code, and
authorized the Secretary of the
Department in which the Coast Guard is
operating to establish AMSCs for any
port area of the United States. (See 33
U.S.C. 1226; 46 U.S.C. 70112(a)(2); 33
CFR 1.05–1, 6.01; Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No.
0170.1). The MTSA includes a provision
exempting these AMSCs from the
Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), 5 U.S.C. App. 2 (Pub. L. 92–
436). The AMSCs shall assist the
Captain of the Port in the development,
review, update, and exercising of the
AMS Plan for their area of
responsibility. Such matters may
include, but are not limited to:
Identifying critical port infrastructure
and operations; identifying risks
(threats, vulnerabilities, and
consequences); determining mitigation
strategies and implementation methods;
developing and describing the process
to continually evaluate overall port
security by considering consequences
and vulnerabilities, how they may
change over time, and what additional
mitigation strategies can be applied; and
providing advice to, and assisting the
Captain of the Port in, developing the
AMS Plan.
AMSC Composition
The composition of an AMSC, to
include the AMSC Eastern Great Lakes
and its sub-committees, is controlled by
33 CFR 103.305. Accordingly, members
may be selected from the Federal,
Territorial, or Tribal government; the
State government and political
subdivisions of the State; local public
safety, crisis management, and
emergency response agencies; law
enforcement and security organizations;
maritime industry, including labor;
other port stakeholders having a special
competence in maritime security; and
port stakeholders affected by security
practices and policies. Also, members
must have at least 5 years of experience
related to maritime or port security
operations.
