When is a storage permit required for LPG?

A storage permit for LPG is required when the storage capacity exceeds 400 SCF (standard cubic feet). This threshold is established to ensure that facilities that store significant amounts of LPG comply with safety regulations, including proper installation, equipment, and safety measures to mitigate the risk of accidents, such as leaks or explosions. Storing more than 400 SCF indicates a substantial quantity of LPG that necessitates adherence to specific safety protocols set forth by authorities to protect both personnel and the surrounding environment. Ensuring that proper permits are in place helps authorities monitor and enforce compliance with safety standards, ultimately enhancing the safety of LPG handling and storage.
