With Passover beginning March 27 and running through April 4, you may have noticed more special kosher labels on food goods in your supermarket. But unless you are an Orthodox Jew, you’ve probably never really thought about what it means to keep kosher or even what is entails to handle and certify kosher products. You’ve probably thought even less about the role the liquid terminal industry performs in the process. 

Working closely with Saudi Aramco and Tank Storage Magazine, ILTA will host its inaugural Young Terminal Industry Professionals Symposium on April 6. The online conference is aimed at all types of under-35 professionals in the bulk liquid storage industry, from those working outside on terminals themselves to those managing their operations inside. The three- hour event will feature presentations on a variety of topics for what is sure to be a cannot-miss event. 

You don’t have to be Irish to enjoy a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day meal. And we’ve found some great recipes that are made possible because of liquid terminals that will help you celebrate the day.  While most people think of liquid terminals as simply storing fuels and chemicals, many liquid terminals, including lots owned by ILTA members, handle and store liquid food products, including molasses and coconut oil. 

With President Biden having recently signed the historic $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill and the nation marking the one-year anniversary of COVID-19 being declared a global pandemic, Think Tank has taken a moment to reflect on what the virus has meant to the liquid terminal industry over the past year. 

Following January’s successful iteration, ILTA will host its next Environment, Health & Safety and Security Committee Meeting March 29-April 1. The EHSS meetings serve as a platform for ILTA terminal members to share with and learn from their peers as well as hear from outside experts on matters of importance to the bulk liquid storage industry.  Over the four-day event, ILTA terminal members can engage with one another on some of the most pressing issues facing the sector under the new Biden administration and the ongoing pandemic.
