Grandfather Clause 4 Non-Spec Diesel Tanks Expires


Since 2002 an amendment to the Clear Language Regulations has allowed diesel fuel to be transported in non-specification tanks. Starting January 1, 2010 it will be imperative that “skid” tanks and other non-spec tanks be standardized. The grandfather clause has run its 8 year course and with its expiry there should be little excuse for non-compliance. Depending upon the tank type used, there are Standards available indicating the proper tank specification to be used January 1, 2010.
