[Introduced February 02, 2023; Referred to the Committee on Government Organization]

A BILL to amend and reenact §15A-10-15 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to the performance of installation of propane gas systems.

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:

ARTICLE 10. FIRE MARSHAL.

§15A-10-15. Performance of installation of propane gas systems.

 

(a) Notwithstanding any statutory or regulatory provisions to the contrary, any person who installs, fuels, maintains, or services any fuel gas system to a one- or two-family dwelling shall comply with rules promulgated by the Fire Commission relating to fuel gas systems.

(b) This section does not apply to any person who performs this work on a single-family dwelling, owned or leased, and occupied by that person. The personal exemption provided in this subsection is the same as the personal exemption provided in §29-3D-1, et seq. of this code.

(c) Use of, refilling of, or work upon a liquefied petroleum gas container without the consent of the tank owner is prohibited.

(1) No person shall sell, install, fill, refill, deliver or permit to be delivered, or use in any manner any liquefied petroleum gas container unless the container is owned by the person, or its use is authorized by its owner.

(2) No person shall dismantle, evacuate, service, relocate, make or break any connections to, or deface any liquefied petroleum gas container or its regulatory equipment unless the equipment or its connection are owned by the person or the action is authorized by the owner of the container.

 

NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to clarify the performance of the installation of propane gas systems.
