ILTA Hosts Successful 2021 TOPS in Houston

ILTA’s 2021 Terminal Operating Practices Symposium returned this month in Houston with over 50 in-person attendees. Every year, ILTA hosts TOPS, an educational series designed to provide terminal operators a forum to exchange lessons learned from facility incidents and near hits while discussing effective operating practices with their peers. The goal is to bolster safety practices across the industry by holding open dialogue on operational challenges.

Featuring 11 presentations from 14 presenters, the eight-hour event covered a range of topics, including environmental releases, malfunctions, worker injuries and illnesses, near misses and other abnormal operating events at their facilities.

If you are interested in getting involved in next year’s event, ILTA will be collecting proposals for 2022’s TOPS starting in February.
