Missouri's Propane Safety Commission adopts uniform statewide standards for liquefied petroleum gas storage, handling, and transportation. The rules incorporate NFPA 58 by reference and preempt conflicting local requirements for licensed propane operations under Chapter 323 RSMo.
RSMo Chapter 323 creates the Missouri Propane Education and Safety Commission and authorizes the Department of Agriculture to license LP-gas dealers and adopt safety rules. Regulations at 2 CSR 90-30 incorporate NFPA 58 (Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code) for container construction, separation distances, valves, and operator qualifications. Container installations must follow tank-to-building setbacks based on capacity, with 10-foot minimums for residential ASME tanks. Dealers must hold a state license and employ certified service technicians. Transportation follows DOT and state cargo tank rules.
License suspension, fines up to $1,000 per violation under RSMo 323.100, and stop-work orders for noncompliant installations.
