Tanks For Nothing: 'Wetlines' rule could be costly and dangerous

Quote:

TORONTO -- It ain't easy getting tanked south of the border.

Not only is U.S. Customs requiring that all truckers report the exact amount of chemical or fuel residue in a tanker container when crossing into the U.S.; but it seems that Congress is hell-bent on making life even more complicated (and expensive) for tank fleets that operate in America.

Actually, the federal government's scheme to ban so-called "wetlines" from the underside of new tanker trailers and mandate purging systems on existing units appear to be solutions in search of a problem.
