The Ohio State Fire Marshal adopts NFPA 58 Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code through OAC 1301:7-7 and licenses LPG installations statewide, providing uniform propane storage and handling rules that apply universally.
Ohio Administrative Code 1301:7-5 establishes the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) regulations administered by the Ohio Department of Commerce, Division of State Fire Marshal. The rules adopt NFPA 58 with Ohio amendments and require licensing for LPG dealers, installers, and bulk plant operators. Container size limits, separation distances, and installation standards are uniform statewide. Ohio Fire Code (OAC 1301:7-7) Chapter 61 incorporates flammable gas storage requirements adopted from the International Fire Code. Local fire officials enforce the code but cannot lower its standards.
Operating without LPG license is misdemeanor; civil penalties and license revocation under ORC 3737.88.
