Partnerships: Industry partnerships are central to Coast Guard's efforts
to reduce casualties and minimize environmental damage associated with
waterborne transportation. The Coast Guard has formal partnerships with
the American Waterways Operators (AWO), the Passenger Vessel Association
(PVA), the International Council of Cruise Lines (ICCL), and a joint
partnership with the American Petroleum Institute (API) and U.S. Chamber
of Shipping (USCS). The 50% reduction in the towing industry fatality
rate over the past five years is believed to be a direct result of the AWO
partnership.
The Coast Guard is committed to these efforts and expects
to reduce the risks of marine casualties and loss of life further through
continued dialogue and cooperative efforts.
Prevention Through People Program: The Coast Guard initiative, Prevention
Through People (PTP), is a systematic people-focused approach to reducing
marine casualties and pollution.
It addresses the root cause of over 80
per cent of accidents - the human element. From the PTP program's
beginning in 1994, the Coast Guard and maritime industry have worked
together to ensure that both government and industry needs are met. With
the help of the PTP "Champions" (marine industry executives committed to
safety and environmental protection), the Coast Guard developed a PTP
strategic plan that focuses prevention efforts on casualties caused by
human error. This initiative is instrumental in promoting Coast Guard and
industry research that explores the human factor in accidents and suggests
appropriate interventions.

The noticeable decrease in the 7thand 8th district fisheries resource hours
is the result of increased emphasis towards counter-drug law enforcement in
the Atlantic Area.

international fisheries activities not captured within a district.
