    By Samantha Oller

    “All we’re doing is encouraging them to make plans to convert their transport system,” Gilligan said. “They also have to make sure they have the appropriate storage segregation they need, and to start training drivers to handle this stuff. That will be really key: to get drivers to handle it properly.”

    After reading the entire paragraph, I believe that they mean the transport drivers will need training to handle the ULS fuel properly in order that they don't contaminate it with higher sulpher fuel.
