Verifying Propane Odorization
Because propane is flammable, DOT regulations and NFPA 58 require that propane be odorized before delivery to a bulk plant or when the shipment will bypass the bulk plant. Propane personnel are required to verify the presence of odorant at various times, typically through a "sniff test". It is essential that you understand how to perform these tests safely and document them for your company.
