(2)
For plants storing liquefied petroleum gases, and used for the dispensing of
liquefied petroleum gases in liquid state into container or containers, for resale,
plans shall be submitted, in duplicate, to the Department of Housing, Buildings and
Construction, and shall be approved by the department before construction is
started. Plans so submitted shall show the following information as a minimum:
(a) The name and address of the owner, and the name and purpose of the plant
proposed;
(b) Location of the proposed plant in relation to the nearest city, highways,
railroads, and built up areas;
(c) A plot plan showing dimensions of the area proposed to be used for the plant,
distances to the nearest property lines and the location and construction of any
buildings which might affect the distances required under regulations adopted
by the commissioner of housing, buildings, and construction;
(d) Construction drawings showing the arrangement and construction of all tanks,
tank supports, piping, accessories, buildings, and appurtenant items of
construction. These drawings shall be in sufficient detail to allow a contractor
who is familiar with tank and pipe installation but not necessarily familiar
with liquefied petroleum gas installations to use such drawings to
satisfactorily complete the installation without further instructions;
(e) A copy of the original boiler inspector's report of inspection of the tank or
tanks to be used or a reference to manufacturer's name and serial number of
the tank so that the report may be obtained direct;
(f) The date of completion of the plans, the dates of any subsequent revisions and
the signature of the person assuming responsibility for the correctness of the
plans.
For plants, installed for industrial or commercial usage, having a nominal water
capacity of 150 gallons or over and serving an aggregate BTU usage of 150,000
BTUs or over and/or used for dispensing liquefied petroleum gas into other
containers, not for resale, a report of installation, giving location and equipment
installed, must be made to the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction,
not later than ten (10) days after installation.
