submitted 16 years ago by Pub. L. 111-281 to r/title-14-COAST-GUARD · 167 words · no verdicts yet
The Coast Guard Commandant must create a program letting Coast Guard members work at private companies. The goal is to support marine safety and provide training. Assignments must follow set rules, and the Commandant must confirm each one is a good use of funds.
The Commandant* of the Coast Guard must set up, by policy, a program that lets a Coast Guard officer, member, or employee be assigned to work at a private entity. The point is to support the Coast Guard's institutional interests in marine safety, including by letting that person get training.
The policies running this program must do two things:
(1) For an assigned employee of the Coast Guard, the policies must follow sections 3702 through 3704 of title 5 on: (A) how long an assignment lasts and how it ends; (B) reimbursements; and (C) the participant's status, entitlements, benefits, and obligations.
(2) Before approving any assignment of an officer, member, or employee to a private entity, the Commandant must first decide that the assignment is an effective use of Coast Guard funds — weighing the Coast Guard's best interests against the costs and benefits of other ways to reach the same goals.
The Commandant* shall, by policy, establish a program under which an officer, member, or employee of the Coast Guard may be assigned to a private entity to further the institutional interests of the Coast Guard with regard to marine safety, including for the purpose of providing training to an officer, member, or employee. Policies to carry out the program—
with regard to an employee of the Coast Guard, shall include provisions, consistent with sections 3702 through 3704 of title 5, as to matters concerning—
the duration and termination of assignments;
reimbursements; and
status, entitlements, benefits, and obligations of program participants; and
shall require the Commandant, before approving the assignment of an officer, member, or employee of the Coast Guard to a private entity, to determine that the assignment is an effective use of the Coast Guard’s funds, taking into account the best interests of the Coast Guard and the costs and benefits of alternative methods of achieving the same results and objectives.
