FTA seminar keeps operators abreast of fuel tanker regs
September 3rd, 2010 | Published in Automobile News
The Freight Transport Association’s popular Fuel Tanker Seminar will be held on Tuesday 5 October in Warrington. The event takes place every two years to coincide with regular changes to UK dangerous goods legislation linked to ADR, and is of particular relevance to fleet managers, vehicle engineers and those responsible for specifying road fuel tanker design.
The seminar provides an opportunity for delegates to plan for future legislation developments specific to their operations, and to hear from Department for Transport experts, the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency (VOSA) and leading industry bodies on tank testing, enforcement and specification issues.
Key sessions include:
- ADR changes in 2011 affecting fuel tanker operators
- Tank inspection and testing
- European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
- ADR enforcement and VOSA roadside targeting
- Safe Loading Pass Scheme
- Disaster recovery
The event will be chaired by Dave Rowlands, Technical Services Director at Wincanton Group.
