Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 120-3-18-.12 - Storage, Handling and Use of Liquefied Petroleum Gases
(1) Storage, handling, and use of liquefied
petroleum gases shall be in accordance with Rules of the Safety Fire
Commissioner Chapter 120-3-16, NFPA 54, and NFPA 58.
(2) Portable or temporary installations for
concession stands.
(a) Portable cylinders for
the storage of liquified petroleum shall be located outside the concession
stands. They shall be placed on a firm, level, non-combustible foundation and
shall be protected from accidental striking, vehicular impact, or overturning.
Such protection may be by Vehicular Barrier Protection as specified in NFPA 58
or by securing the cylinder to the sidewall of the concession stand, if the
storage capacity of the cylinder does not exceed 125 gallons.
(b) Portable cylinders connected for use in
concession areas in grandstands shall be located so that if a gas leak
develops, the gas cannot be trapped in a low area or closed space. Protection
as described in the above paragraph shall be provided, as necessary.
(c) Portable equipment shall be maintained
and kept in proper operating condition. Connections for cylinders and
appliances shall be inspected by facility operators prior to hook-up to ensure
flares, flare nuts, or other type connectors are in good condition, and if not,
they must be repaired or replaced before connections are made.
(d) All appliances, pipe or tubing,
cylinders, regulators, and other equipment shall be approved for use with
liquefied petroleum gases and where appropriate shall bear the approval seal or
symbol of the approving agency. All equipment shall be inspected by facility
operators prior to use and shall be kept in good operating condition.
