1 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 2-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Global Input ] Throughout standard remove references to the following and replace with the following: (1) ANSI/UL and replace with UL. (2) ANSI Z129.1 and replace with ANSI Z400.1/Z (3) API # and so on and replace API STD # or API RP #. Referenced recommended updates to correlate with PI-3 and P1-4. Related Public Inputs for This Document Related Input Public Input No. 3-NFPA 30A-2015 [Section No. 2.3] Public Input No. 4-NFPA 30A-2015 [Section No. D.1.2] Relationship Referenced current SDO addresses, standard numbers, names, and years. Referenced current SDO addresses, standard numbers, names, and years. Submitter Full Name: Aaron Adamczyk Organization: [ Not Specified ] Submittal Date: Fri Feb 06 23:51:05 EST 2015 Resolution: A document search may not recognize abbreviations. If a standard has been recognized by ANSI, the group who has created the standard generally wants the document recognized as such and would include ANSI in the designation. The reference should be the full title, not an abbreviation. The Manual of Style should be referenced to ensure compliance with the formatting for references. The ANSI Z129.1 reference is updated in the appropriate annex sections.

2 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 39-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Section No ] 1.1.3* This code shall not apply to those motor fuel dispensing facilities where only liquefied petroleum gas (LP-Gas), liquefied natural gas (LNG), or compressed natural gas (CNG), or hydrogen is dispensed as motor fuel. NFPA 2, Hydrogen Technologies Code, is not currently recognized in Chapter 1 Administration yet NFPA 2 contains two chapters on hydrogen fueling facilities (i.e. - Chapter 10 GH2 Vehicle Fueling Facilities; and Chapter 11 LH2 Fueling Facilities) as well as a chapter on repair garages servicing hydrogen-fueled vehicles (i.e. - Chapter 18 Repair Garages). These requirements are contained only in NFPA 2 and nowhere else. Previous text in NFPA 52 has been removed. The Standards Council has revised the Scope of NFPA 52 and removed fueling of hydrogen-fuel cell vehicles (FCV). Therefore, fueling requirements for hydrogen are contained in NFPA 2 and the exclusion of section NFPA 30A should be extended to hydrogen fueling as well as CNG and LPG.

Annex: It is appropriate to add the reference to NFPA 2, as hydrogen fueling is also addressed in this code.

3 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 5-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Section No ] 1.1.3* This code shall not apply to those motor fuel dispensing facilities where only liquefied petroleum gas (LP-Gas), liquefied natural gas (LNG), or compressed natural gas (CNG), or hydrogen is dispensed as motor fuel. NFPA Standard Council has moved all hydrogen requirements from NFPA52 to NFPA2, including those for Motor Fueling Dispensing and Repair Garages. The 2011 version of the NFPA2 code had specific information on Dispensing, but not for Repair Garages (reserved). The 2016 version of NFPA2 will have specific requirements for Repair Garages and will be published prior to NFPA30A. Therefore, in order to prevent conflicting requirements, hydrogen should be excluded from NFPA30A, as is LPG, LNG, and CNG.

Installation, spacing and venting per the requirements of Section 4.3, Storage of Liquids This addition to NFPA 30A would allow tanks manufactured to UL SU 2259 to be applied in combustible liquids storage installations where specified in the scope of SU 2258 supported by extensive and rigorous testing requirements of the standard. From Subject 2258 Introduction: 1.1 These requirements cover nonmetallic or composite primary, secondary and diked type atmospheric tanks from gallons ( L) intended primarily for the storage and supply of heating fuel for oil burning equipment, or alternately the storage of diesel fuels for compression ignition engines and motor oils (new and used) for automotive service stations, in above ground installations. With the exception of standards UL 2080 (fire resistant tanks) and UL 2085 (protected tanks), UL SU 2258 would be the only other construction standard for combustible liquid storage with a pool fire test requirement. Submitter Full Name: BRUCE STOWE Organization: ROTH INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED Affilliation: N/A Submittal Date: Mon Jul 06 11:17:30 EDT 2015 Resolution: These tanks are not recognized or referenced in NFPA 30.

A task group will make a recommendation on appropriate changes at the second draft stage.

19 9 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 36-NFPA 30A-2015 [ New Section after 5.7 ] 5.8 Underground Piping. Underground piping must be approved doublewall with approved monitoring. Aligns NFPA requirements with federal underground storage tank rules. Requiring monitoring of underground piping would prevent or limit environment exposure and hence, fire potential. Submitter Full Name: MARCIA POXSON Organization: MICHIGAN BUREAU OF FIRE SERVIC Submittal Date: Tue Jun 30 14:27:19 EDT 2015 Resolution: The current federal regulations governing the use of this type of piping are considered sufficient.

20 0 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 79-NFPA 30A-2015 [ New Section after ] Fuel dispensing systems and components intended for use with ethanol or gasoline/ethanol mixtures above E10 shall be listed in accordance with the following standards. (1) Dispensers: ANSI/UL 87A Standard for Power-Operated Dispensing Devices for Gasoline or Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations Up to 85 Percent (E0-E85). (2) Pumps: ANSI/UL 79 Standard for Power-Operated Pumps for Gasoline and Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations Up to 85 Percent (E0 - E85).

(5) Swivel Connectors: UL 567A Standard for Emergency Breakaway Fittings, Swivel Connectors and Pipe-Connection Fittings for Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations Up to 85 Percent (E0 - E85. (6) Breakaways: UL 567A Standard for Emergency Breakaway Fittings, Swivel Connectors and Pipe-Connection Fittings for Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations Up to 85 Percent (E0 - E85). (7) Dispenser Emergency Shutoff Valves UL 842A Standard for Valves for Gasoline and Gasoline/Ethanol Blends with Nominal Ethanol Concentrations up to 85 Percent (E0 - E85) Section currently requires dispensing equipment intended for use with alcohol-blended motor fuels to be listed or approved for the specific purpose. This was a good requirement when systems and components were not listed for this use. However a new generation of UL standards was developed to evaluate and list the components covered by this section for such use. This proposal provides the code user with references to the standards used to evaluate fuels with ethanol concentrations above E10. Submitter Full Name: HOWARD HOPPER Organization: UL LLC Submittal Date: Mon Jul 06 16:10:28 EDT 2015 Resolution: FR-16-NFPA 30A-2015 Statement: These standards proposed in PI 79 are already addressed in the annex and the committee has updated the annex to reflect the updated standards.

21 1 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 78-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Section No ] * Fuel dispensing systems, including dispensers, hoses, nozzles, breakaway fittings, swivels, flexible connectors, dispenser emergency shutoff valves, vapor recovery systems, and pumps that are used for alcohol-blended motor fuels shall be listed or approved for the specific purpose. and components shall be listed in accordance with the following standards, or the standards included in Section 6.2.4: (1) Dispensers: ANSI/UL 87A Standard for Power-Operated Dispensing Devices for Petroleum Products. (2) Pumps: ANSI/UL 79, Standard for Powered-Operated Pumps for Petroleum Dispensing Products. (3) Hose Assemblies: ANSI/UL 330, Standard for Hose and Hose Assemblies for Dispensing Flammable Liquids. (4) Hose Nozzles Valves: ANSI/UL 2586, Standard for Hose Nozzle Valves. (5) Swivel Connectors: ANSI/UL 567, Standard for Emergency Breakaway Fittings, Swivel Connectors and Pipe-Connection Fittings for Petroleum Products. (6) Breakaways: ANSI/UL 567, Standard for Emergency Breakaway Fittings, Swivel Connectors and Pipe-Connection Fittings for Petroleum Products. (7) Dispenser Emergency Shutoff Valves ANSI/UL 842, Standard for Valves for Flammable Fluids. The body of the code stated that specific products were to be listed but there was no listed standard in the body of the code to support the requirement it was located in the Annex, which is unenforceable.

29 7 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 45-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Section No ] Occupancy Classification. The occupancy classification of a motor fuel dispensing facility that is located inside a building or structure shall be a special purpose industrial occupancy as defined in NFPA 101, Life Safety Code determined in accordance with the building code adopted for the jurisdiction. Occupancy classifications are assigned by the Building code adopted in a jurisdiction. Special purpose industrial occupancy is an incorrect classification (see below) and this is a complicated situation best handled by requirements already clearly established in the building code. For most occupancies, adding a motor fuel dispensing facility inside an existing building would cause the MAQ to be exceeded if the storage is also inside, which would cause the occupancy to be a high hazard Group H occupancy and/or invoke additional Protection Level requirement (analogous to Group H) if NFPA 1 were to be enforced. Regardless, a special purpose industrial occupancy has lower egress requirements (not higher) that a standard industrial occupancy so this is not an appropriate occupancy classification. Special-purpose industrial occupancies are intended for occupancies with uniquely low occupant load factors; not for occupancies that perform unique operations. Fuel dispensing facilities do not experience uniquely low occupant loads. In addition, egress may be inadequate if classified as a special purpose industrial occupancy. Refer to definition in NFPA 101 below as evidence that this classification is not applicable to fuel dispensing facilities: Special-Purpose Industrial Occupancy.

60 6 of 105 1/21/2016 7:49 AM Public Input No. 25-NFPA 30A-2015 [ Section No ] * In major repair garages where CNG vehicles are repaired or stored, the area within 455 mm (18 in.) of the ceiling shall be designated a Class I, Division 2 hazardous (classified) location. Exception: In major repair garages, where ventilation equal to not less than four air changes per hour is provided, this requirement shall not apply. The existing requirement as stated in was based on the assumption as noted in Annex A8.2.1 that the creditable release on natural gas from the vehicle would be 150% of the largest on board storage cylinder. The volume released assumption was based on the noted premature failures of thermally activated PRDs (TPRD) experienced in the 1990's. Those TPRDS have gone through at least three generations on new designs and there has not been a documented failure (premature release) from TPRDs since This stems for the phase out of the older designs for the 1990's and the excellent performance record of the new TPRD designs. With thirteen years of no recorded failures (premature releases) of TPRDs mounted on hundreds of thousands of cylinders indicates that the release hazard covered by no longer exists. A recent research paper (SAND ) from SANDIA National Laboratory and funded by the Clean Vehicle Education Foundation has determined that the expected creditable release for both CNG and LNG vehicles is of a much lower volume and dose not pose a hazard for a maintenance facility. The report includes gas dispersion modeling of the creditable releases showing the extent of the ignitable mixture. This modeling of the creditable mixtures indicate that the ignitable concentration is only within a narrow area no more than six feet from the point of release, also the limited volume of release does not allow for an increasing concentration in the ceiling area due to the dispersion of the gas.the full release as as noted in the 1990 assumption was also modeled for background information. The report also indicates that ventilation rates has little or no impact on the volume of ignitable mixture and the dispersion of the released gas.the report will be sent by separate cover as part of this proposal and an electronic copy is available to the TC as needed. The Annex A8.2.1 will need to be deleted and the TC should consider new annex material explaining the realities of creditable releases expected for contemporary facility designs, this information may be considered as Annex material for section concerning locations of ignitable mixtures. NOTE: SANDIA has proposed a Phase 2 project to refine the assumptions for facility designs and CFD modeling starting in 2016 and would consider input from the NFPA 52 TC together define and understand the potential hazards.

Exception: The extent of the classified area around a vacuum-assist blower shall be permitted to be reduced if the blower is specifically listed for such reduced distances. Table seems to conflict with the use of an AST in conjunction with a dispensing device when it comes to the definition of hazardous zones. Table 8.3.3(b) shows zones that are not near as large as those shown for ASTs in with no clear definition to the differences. The only clue is that in it refers to dikes around the tanks which would seem to indicate large storage tanks. This large zone around the tank can impact the hazardous classification required for the dispenser. Submitter Full Name: RANDY MOSES Organization: WAYNE FUELING SYSTEMS LLC
