• WHAT’S IN IT FOR US?

• ISN'T IT A CONFLICT OF INTEREST WHEN INSPECTING AT OUR PLANT AND OUR TANKERS?

WHERE ARE WE AT WITH ATI’S

• WE HAVE PULLED THE CERTIFICATION FROM SOME ATI’S SINCE THE WERE NOT CONDUCTING THE

INSPECTIONS ACCORDING TO THE REGULATIONS

COMMENTS FROM INDUSTRY

• IT GETS THE PLANT INVOLVED MORE ON CONDUCTING INSPECTIONS

• WE LEARN MORE BY CONDUCTING INSPECTIONS OURSELVES

• TANKERS ARE IN BETTER CONDITION THAN THEY WERE IN THE PAST-WE SEE THE VIOLATIONS AND

ADDRESS PROBLEMS AS THEY ARISE

• OUR INTAKE PERSONNEL ARE DOING A BETTER JOB CLEANING AND WATCHING FOR VIOLATIONS

• WE SEE THE TANKERS EVERYDAY SO WE CAN ADDRESS PROBLEMS WHEN THEY OCCUR
