It’s almost time for May flowers! Hopefully everyone will have a chance to enjoy the traditional beauty the coming month brings us. Never fail to appreciate the simple things. Here’s the last week’s regulatory news:
PHMSA
The agency announced that it will hold US pre-meetings in preparation for the upcoming international regulatory meetings occurring later this year.
