The somewhat transient U.S. fleet that operates within the AOR includes offshore oil industry vessels and Mobile Offshore Drilling Units working in <a href="/wiki/West_Africa" title="West Africa">West Africa</a> and on the <a href="/wiki/North_Sea" title="North Sea">North Sea</a> and <a href="/wiki/Arabian_Sea" title="Arabian Sea">Arabian Sea</a>, and U.S. deep draft <a href="/wiki/Cargo_ships" class="mw-redirect" title="Cargo ships">cargo ships</a> (both commercial and U.S. government owned), which navigate throughout the Area of Responsibility (AOR). </p><p>ACTEUR's marine inspectors focus on the structural integrity, vital systems, propulsion, seaworthiness, hazardous conditions, lifesaving, firefighting, safety of navigation, etc., on U.S flag commercial vessels. Their marine inspectors travel to over 30 countries throughout the AOR to ensure compliance with U.S. laws and regulations and international conventions. </p><p>In addition to the fleet in operation, ACTEUR also oversees any major U.S. flag new-building projects under construction within the AOR, prototype & production testing of primary lifesaving appliances for formal USCG Approval, and of third party organizations that have been authorized to conduct relevant work on behalf of the USCG. </p><p>U.S. Vessel Investigations - ACTEUR also investigates marine casualties (including incidents accidental or purposeful) involving U.S. vessels operating within the AOR. Primarily to identify safeguards and prevent re-occurrence, their investigators attempt to determine the causes, evaluate the actions of USCG licensed & documented mariners and, as appropriate, initiate legal actions. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Port_State_Control_Activities">Port State Control Activities</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=USCG_Activities_Europe&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Port State Control Activities"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Although ACTEUR does not have <a href="/wiki/Captain_of_the_Port" class="mw-redirect" title="Captain of the Port">Captain of the Port</a> jurisdiction, they play a key role in the USCG Port State control program for European built cruise ships, foreign flag tank vessels and compressed gas carriers. The overwhelming majority of cruise ships that trade in the U.S. are built in European shipyards and ACTEUR marine inspectors, working in conjunction with U.S. counterparts, often conduct expanded Port State Control exams during the construction of these vessels in order to ensure compliance with international safety regulations, especially those concerning structural fire protection and lifesaving arrangements. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="International_Port_Security_Program">International Port Security Program</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=USCG_Activities_Europe&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: International Port Security Program"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 2004 ACTEUR became home to a team of International Port Security Liaison Officers (IPSLO's) who work with all maritime trading countries in the AOR. The IPSLOs are a vital part of the Coast Guard's International Port Security (IPS) Program. Their mission is to learn about maritime port security efforts and implementation of the ISPS Code in all countries that conduct maritime trade with the U.S. </p><p>This is accomplished by continual engagement with fellow maritime nations. At times engagements are less formal and conducted by the IPSLO alone and other times more formal and include a delegation of IPS Program managers from <a href="/wiki/Washington_DC" class="mw-redirect" title="Washington DC">Washington DC</a> or <a href="/wiki/Portsmouth,_Virginia" title="Portsmouth, Virginia">Portsmouth, Virginia</a>. In all cases, engagements provide the opportunity to conduct on-site information exchanges, share best practices, and observe each country's efforts on maritime port security.
