United States Coast Guard Requirements
The United States Coast Guard regulates the marine industry and its rules and regulations must be met. GBL has developed specific operating procedures to keep our vessels and crew in compliance.

Initially, you will be given training in company policies and procedures through our orientation program, and hands-on training aboard a barge and towboat. At all times safety will and must take priority for all crew members. Upon recommendation by the captain and based on the business demand, deckhands will be trained as Tankermen to transfer liquid cargoes aboard our barges.

After you have been successfully trained to transfer liquid cargoes, Golding Barge Line, Inc., will submit your application for a Tankerman-“Person in Charge of the Barge” document to the United States Coast Guard for approval. Upon submission, the United States Coast Guard will review your criminal history and conduct extensive background checks using government agency databases prior to approving your application. Previous convictions for any offense greater than a speeding ticket will show up and be reviewed by the USCG.
