NTTC’s Cargo Tank Test & Inspection Workshops are returning to in-person offerings, in addition to separate virtual workshops. In-person and virtual workshops are led by FMCSA instructors or by industry and hazmat specialist Art Fleener. Regardless of which format you choose, all workshops are designed to help cargo tank repair technicians, testers, and inspectors comply with current regulations – whether as a bulk carrier or as a commercial repair facility. Each workshop focuses on compliance with USDOT’s cargo tank qualification and maintenance regulations found in 49 CFR Parts 107 and 180. Topics to be covered in the workshop include:

  • Overview of 49 CFR Part 180
  • Special test/inspection conditions
  • External visual inspections
  • Internal visual inspections
  • Pressure tests
  •  Leakage tests
  • Thickness tests
  • Lining inspections
  • DOT Interpretations
  • Compliance dates/tank markings
  • Record keeping requirements
  • Cargo tank repair and retrofitting
  • Compliance and enforcement issues
  • Registration procedures for test/inspection facilities
  • History/Background of 49 CFR Parts 107 & 180 (HM-183 and HM-213)
  • Qualifications of Registered Inspectors, Design Certifying Engineers & Authorized Inspectors

 

Virtual workshops feature synchronous learning via GoToMeeting, a web-based platform that will allow attendees to interact with our instructor live. Workbooks and completion certificates will be mailed to attendees at the shipping address given during registration. The course will be held over 3 days for 5 hours a day with a lunch break for a total of 15 hours.
