16 Tex. Admin. Code § 9.109 - Physical Inspection of Stationary LP-Gas Installations
(a) Aggregate water capacity of 10,000
gallons or more. The applicant shall notify AFS in writing when the
installation is ready for inspection.
(1) If
any non-compliance items are cited at the time of AFS' initial inspection, the
installation shall not be placed in LP-gas service until the non-compliance
items are corrected, as determined at the time of inspection depending on the
nature of the non-compliance items cited.
(2) If AFS does not physically inspect the
facility within 30 calendar days of receipt of notice that the facility is
ready for inspection, the facility may operate conditionally until the initial
inspection is completed.
(b) Aggregate water capacity of less than
10,000 gallons. After receipt of LPG Form 501, AFS shall conduct an inspection
as soon as possible to verify that the installation described is in compliance
with the rules in this chapter. The facility may be operated prior to
inspection if it is in compliance with the rules in this chapter. If the
initial inspection at a commercial installation results in the citation of
non-compliance items, AFS may require that the subject container, including any
piping, appliances, appurtenances, or equipment connected to it, be immediately
removed from LP-gas service until the non-compliance items are
corrected.
(c) Material variances.
If AFS determines the completed installation varies materially from the
application originally accepted, correction of the variance and notification to
AFS or resubmission of the application is required. The review of such
resubmitted application shall comply with §
9.101 of this title (relating to
Filings Required for Stationary LP-Gas Installations).
(d) In the event an applicant has requested
an inspection and AFS' inspection identifies non-compliance items requiring
modifications by the applicant, AFS shall consider the assessment of an
inspection fee to cover the costs associated with any additional inspection,
including mileage and per diem rates set by the legislature.
