Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to labor and industry; directing the commissioner to adopt rules relating to steam boilers.

AI Summary

This bill directs the commissioner of labor and industry to modify existing state rules regarding steam boilers, specifically amending Minnesota Rules part 5225.1180 to permit low mass high pressure steam boilers to operate under the same regulations as low pressure steam boilers. The term "low mass" likely refers to boilers with a smaller volume or weight, and "high pressure" indicates steam boilers that operate at higher than standard atmospheric pressure. The amendment aims to standardize boiler regulations, potentially simplifying compliance for manufacturers and operators of these industrial equipment types. The rule change will become effective immediately after the bill is enacted, with the goal of creating more uniform and potentially more flexible guidelines for steam boiler operation in Minnesota.
