Propane storage in New Jersey follows the state LP-Gas code (N.J.A.C. 5:18), which adopts NFPA 58. Camden County sets no separate propane ordinance; container size, siting, and installation are governed statewide.
New Jersey's Liquefied Petroleum Gas program under N.J.A.C. 5:18 adopts NFPA 58 (the LP-Gas Code) as the technical standard for design, installation, location, and storage of propane systems. Outdoor containers must meet the property-line and building setback distances in NFPA 58 Table 6.4.1.1. Small home grill cylinders (typically 20 lb) have limits on indoor storage—they should be stored outdoors, upright, away from ignition sources. Cylinder exchange cabinets must sit on a non-combustible base at least 20 feet from any building opening. Camden County does not regulate residential propane; the NJ DCA and municipal fire officials enforce the state code.
Improper LP-gas installation or storage is cited under the NJ Uniform Construction Code and Fire Code; the DCA LP-Gas unit and local officials can order corrections, and penalties are set by state code.
