With the Biden administration and a Democratic Congress beginning a concerted effort to combat climate change, biofuels are increasingly coming into focus.

As we celebrate Earth Day on April 22, it’s important for all of us to do our part to respect and safeguard the planet. ILTA members are engaged in industrial activities that allow us to use thousands of products that we need daily, but they work hard every day to protect the environment – the air, soil, nearby lakes, rivers, streams, groundwater and sensitive wildlife habitats.

In partnership with Saudi Aramco and Tank Storage Magazine, ILTA hosted its first ever Young Terminals Industry Professionals Summit on April 6. The event was aimed at both younger professionals just entering the industry and long-time terminal veterans looking to pass on their experience. At its core, the event was meant to strengthen cross-generational communications between millennial workers now taking on management roles and both Gen-Xers and Baby Boomers looking to pass the torch. 

ILTA held its annual spring Environment, Health & Safety and Security Committee virtually on March 29-April 1, featuring four days of fantastic discussion on significant matters affecting the tank terminals industry.  

The International Liquid Terminals Association is accepting proposals through April 26 for 2021’s Terminal Operating Practices Symposium, its highly regarded all-day discussion to promote peer-to-peer learning and operational excellence in the terminal industry.
