SB 275 Arkansas Senate · 2025 Regular Session

TO AMEND THE LAW CONCERNING THE REGULATION OF LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GASES.

SB 275 amends Arkansas' liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) regulations to replace specific technical requirements with broader authority for the LPG Board. It eliminates mandatory odorization standards (§15-75-107), safety meeting rules (§15-75-108), and financial statement requirements for multiple permit classes (e.g., §§15-75-308, 309, 311, 316). The bill establishes new training mandates requiring LPG employees to complete board-approved courses for certification, with failure to attend risking suspension. It also repeals outdated container strength standards (§§15-75-401-403) and retail account statement rules (§15-75-407), shifting oversight to the LPG Board’s rulemaking authority. These changes primarily affect LPG businesses, permit holders, and their employees operating in Arkansas.
