Intent
Sec. 1. It is the intent of the general assembly to protect the public
welfare and promote safety in the filling and use of pressure vessels
containing liquefied petroleum gases by implementing both the
interstate commerce commission regulations, within the state of
Indiana, and the national standards of safety on the filling of these
containers. It is necessary to insure that containers properly
constructed and tested are used, and that a liquefied petroleum gas of
suitable and safe vapor pressure be placed in these containers.
Therefore, the filling or refilling of liquefied petroleum gas
containers by other than the owner or authorized person must be
controlled and specific authority to prevent violation and encourage
enforcement should be established.
As added by Acts 1979, P.L.232, SEC.1.
