AI Summary

This bill modifies provisions related to the State Liquefied Petroleum Gas Administrator and the Oklahoma Liquefied Petroleum Gas Board, requiring immediate notification of certain accidents or fires involving liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) systems to the Administration within one business day for investigation, and removes the position of chief deputy administrator while making other language gender-neutral. It also updates statutory references, allows for more flexible meeting designations for the Board while ensuring compliance with the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act, and introduces a new "Food Truck Permit" class. The bill clarifies that fees for refillable cylinders must be used for inspection costs, expands the entities required to pay these fees, and removes language regarding refunds of credit fees, while also authorizing the Board to create administrative rules for fees and defining a "cylinder exchange cabinet" for flat-fee purposes. Additionally, it mandates that certain law enforcement certification, specifically from the Council on Law Enforcement Education and Training (CLEET), is required for safety code enforcement officers to have peace officer powers, and requires registered permit holders to conspicuously mark their LPG containers for easy identification, with authorization needed from the container owner before another permit holder can fill it. Finally, the bill updates specifications for commercial propane, butane, and mixtures, removing some previous requirements for filling and identifying containers while mandating specific identifying marks and authorizations.
