[Revise Table B-307.1(1), Maximum Allowable Quantity Per Control Area of Hazardous Materials Posing a Physical Hazard, by deleting the “Flammable Gas” rows “Gaseous” and “Liquified” and replacing with the following, including the addition of note “r,” as follows:]
Material | Class | Group when the maximum allowable quantity is exceeded | Storage b | Use-closed systems | Use-open systems
Solid pounds (cubic feet) | Liquid gallons (pounds) | Gas (cubic feet at NTP) | Solid pounds (cubic feet) | Liquid gallons (pounds) | Gas (cubic feet at NTP) | Solid pounds (cubic feet) | Liquid gallons (pounds)
Flammable Gas | * * *
Gaseous
