Official Definition of a Bulk Plant per NFPA 58 for NPGA Purposes only
A “bulk plant” is defined as any facility where the primary function is to store LP-Gas prior to further distribution, or pipeline, and then distributed by portable container (package) delivery, by cargo tank vehicle, or through gas piping. A facility distributing gas through gas piping, such as a community gas system, is exempt from the definition of a bulk plant unless the facility is used to transfer product into cargo tank motor vehicles for further distribution. The term “bulk plant” is not intended to include dispensing stations as defined in NFPA 58-2004. A utilized bulk plant is a propane storage facility in which LP-Gas is placed in and then later withdrawn for further distribution during the course of the current calendar year.
The undersigned certifies that the above referenced propane company does not engage inactivities prohibited under Article IX, Sections 3a&b of the GPGA bylaws regarding membership eligibility. In order to be a member of GPGA, you be a member of NPGA.
GEORGIA PROPANE GAS ASSOCIATION
MEMBERSHIP QUALIFICATIONS AGREEMENT
Pursuant to a request by the National Propane Gas Association (NPGA), the Georgia Propane Gas Association (GPGA) requests that all retail propane marketers verify they are qualified for membership under the NPGA membership qualifications regarding government-subsidized monopolies.
According to the NPGA Rules and Procedures:
Government subsidized monopolies-and their subsidiaries and affiliates-that leverage that monopoly in the retail propane market are ineligible for membership.
- Leveraging a government-subsidized monopoly in the retail propane market includes, but is not limited to, the following anti-competitive practices: cross-subsidization, cost shifting, consumer misinformation, and or attempted monopoly of markets for home and water heating fuels.
- Any subsidiary or affiliate of a government subsidized monopoly that is deemed ineligible for membership by this requirement may appeal to the Board of Directors and shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to demonstrate that its operations in the retail propane market do not include, and are not benefited by any, anti-competitive prices as proscribed by this section.
To be eligible for NPGA and GPGA membership, you must sign this agreement. By signing this agreement, you verify that you satisfy the above requirement and you do not leverage a government-subsidized monopoly (including but not limited to Electric Membership Cooperatives) in the retail propane market.
