Bill Summary
The purpose of this bill is to remove the provisions that transformers do not apply to above ground storage tanks.
AI Summary
This bill removes provisions that previously exempted electrical equipment, specifically mentioning transformers, circuit breakers, and voltage regulator transformers, from being considered aboveground storage tanks (ASTs). An AST is defined as a device holding over 1,320 gallons of liquid, primarily made of non-earth materials, with over 90% of its capacity above ground, including its associated pipes and dispensing systems. The bill's intent is to ensure that these types of electrical equipment, when used for storing fluids, are subject to the regulations governing ASTs, unless they fall under other specific exemptions.
