16 Tex. Admin. Code § 9.115 - Examination and Testing of Containers
(a)
In order to determine the safety of a container, AFS may require that the
licensee or operator of the container submit a copy of the manufacturer's data
report on that container. AFS may also require that the container and equipment
be examined by a Category A, B, or O licensee, with a comprehensive report on
the findings submitted to AFS for its consideration. This subsection may be
applied even though an acceptable LPG Form 23 has been received.
(b) Any stationary ASME LP-gas container
previously in LP-gas service which has not been subject to continuous LP-gas
vapor pressure shall be retested by an authorized Category A, B, or O licensed
entity utilizing recognized ASME test methods to determine if the container is
safe for LP-gas use in Texas, and the test results shall be submitted to AFS on
LPG Form 8.
(c) Any stationary ASME
LP-gas container which has been subject to continuous LP-gas vapor pressure is
not required to be tested prior to installation, provided the licensee or
operator of the container files a completed LPG Form 23 with AFS at the time
LPG Form 500 is submitted for any facility requiring submission of a site plan
in accordance with §
9.101 of this title (relating to
Filings Required for Stationary LP-Gas Installations).
(d) Any stationary ASME LP-gas container
brought into Texas from out-of-state and intended for stationary LP-gas
installation in Texas at any facility requiring submission of a site plan shall
be tested in accordance with subsection (b) of this section prior to review
approval being granted by AFS, unless that container is owned by a valid
licensee. In this case, AFS may determine that such tests are not necessary
upon the receipt of an acceptable LPG Form 23 from the licensee.
