new technologies and best practices
SHIPMENT DELAYS & COSTS CALCULATED:
Providing the industry with the direct implications of new regulations on
shipments and costs to better prepare for future investments
REGULATORY FOCUSED:
Dedicated to providing the industry with clarification and updates on new regulations
and what has to be done to comply and remain safe
The North American Crude & Hazardous Liquids by Rail Safety Congress will be held at:
GRAND BALLROOM - Sheraton Brookhollow Hotel3000 N Loop West Freeway - Houston TX 77092
Phone: (713) 688 0100
Web: www.sheratonbrookhollow.com
Venue Information:
With 6 derailments of crude carrying unit trains this year, it is now more important than ever for the supply chain to work together in investigating and improving rail safety for class 3 flammable liquids. Recent regulations have left the industry with questions and concerns for the future of rail takeaway and for that reason the Crude & Hazardous Liquids By Rail Safety Congress has been engineered to answer and inform the supply chain on what is required, what to expect and what costs are involved.
With a multi-stakeholder approach, the summit willclarify regulatory expectations, investigate the
safety benefits of new technologies andprocesses, determine the best practices for
emergency response and remediation in the result of an incident as well as calculate
future costs involved in rail shipping for these products. Hear from leading
experts in their field to ensure compliance, mitigate possible risks and analyze the longevity
of future investments in this mode of takeaway.
