COSTHA’s Antitrust Policy is set forth in a formal statement which is printed in the membership directory. Each of you is strongly encouraged to read the statement and to consider its implications whenever discussions take place during the meetings. The prohibitions of antitrust law apply to all dialogue as well as the open floor deliberation during consideration of the agenda topics.
It is your personal responsibility, and not just that of COSTHA, to stop all discussion, and if necessary, withdraw from any conversation that appeared to violate the antitrust law. Silence will not insulate anyone from violation; active participation in a prohibited act is not required.
Discussions of prices, profit levels, pricing procedures or policies etc. of your company or another is always forbidden. Similarly, consideration of proposals, which might have the effect of producing an adverse economic impact on some companies must be avoided. These are examples of prohibited conduct. Any action or conversation which could lead to
restraining trade or otherwise represent unfair competition would be in violation of legal prohibitions.
This reminder is not intended to stifle spirited and comprehensive discussion of the important items included on our agenda. Rather, it is to ensure that we avoid even unintended actions which could be inferred to be violative of the law.
"The Forum is one of the best ways to stay up to speed on all applicable regulatory developments in the hazmat/dg industry. It is a great way to network with counterparts in my industry as well as other industries that deal with hazmat issues."
