 An
In-Depth Examination of Recent Tank Fires in Puerto Rico and India
David White, Publisher, Industrial Fire World
magazine
Monday, May 24, 2010 • 8:30 a.m. – 9:40 a.m.
The opening session of the ILTA conference features
fire protection expert David White, publisher of Industrial Fire
World. He will discuss major storage tank explosions and fires that
have occurred in the past several years. He will examine the causes
that led to each accident and discuss the emergency response actions
taken at each site. He will also discuss how current regulatory
requirements and best practices in the U.S. might assist terminals in
avoiding similar incidents. After the opening session, conference
attendees can choose among three one-hour breakout sessions that
continue the theme of incident response. In the operations track,
industrial firefighters will address emergency response issues and what
terminals can do to prepare for and defend against a tank fire or
explosion. In the business issues track, communications experts will
offer practical guidance on how to handle the media in a crisis
situation. In the EH&S track, an incident response firm will outline
how terminals can address the operational challenges that occur when
teams of regulators show up to investigate an incident.
