OTA Institute: Cargo Tank Test and Inspection Workshop

Description

OTA is excited to introduce the Cargo Tank Test and Inspection Workshop, in partnership with Fleener Consulting LLC. Led by industry veteran Arthur Fleener, this three-day virtual class from May 20-22 focuses on the essential tests and inspections mandated by the USDOT for specification cargo tanks.

Key topics covered in-depth include requirements outlined in Part 180, testing of cargo tanks including:

• External visual inspections
• Internal visual inspections
• Pressure tests
• Leakage tests
• Thickness test
• Lining inspections

The workshop goes beyond, addressing special permits, interpretations, procedures for renewing or obtaining a new CT number, employee training mandates, record-keeping, and registered inspector requirements.

It's crucial to note that USDOT requires this training at least once every 3 years. Failure to maintain current training is a common violation, leading to substantial fines. Ensure your team is well-trained and up-to-date.

Attendance costs $500 for OTA members and $600 for non-members. The virtual training, conducted via Zoom from 9:00 am EST to 3:30 pm EST each day, includes a cargo tank regulations book and a comprehensive student manual. Don't miss this opportunity for top-notch training to avoid potential fines and enhance regulatory compliance.
