Requiring Fire Commission promulgate standards for propane tank installation in certain homes
Senate Bill 88 requires West Virginia's Fire Commission to create specific installation standards for propane fuel tanks (over 250 pounds) used in single-family homes. These standards would apply to contractors and installers working on residential propane systems, excluding homeowners who install tanks for their own use. The State Fire Marshal would enforce these rules through inspections and certification of compliance. The bill directly affects propane system installers, contractors, and homeowners using larger propane tanks in single-family dwellings, focusing on safety standards for residential installations.
