A bill to amend the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 to clarify propane storage as an eligible use for funds provided under the storage facility loan program, and for other purposes.

This bill amends the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 to allow agricultural producers to use loan funds for constructing or upgrading propane storage facilities primarily used in farming. It directly affects farmers and agricultural businesses seeking to store propane for on-farm production needs, such as powering equipment or heating greenhouses. The key change adds a specific eligibility category under the storage facility loan program, explicitly listing propane storage for agricultural production as an approved use. This clarifies that funds previously available for producer storage can now cover propane infrastructure, aligning with existing federal definitions in 7 CFR §4279.2.
