Subchapter A. New Dealers

§ 1505. Applications
A. Any person, firm, or corporation desiring to enter the anhydrous ammonia business in the state of Louisiana must file formal application for a permit with the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Commission. These applications for permits will be administratively granted by the office of the director upon complying with all Commission requirements, such as payment of the applicable fees, qualification of personnel, providing proof of insurance and if applicable, final approval of a sketch, registration and safety inspection of tanker trucks. The Liquefied Petroleum Gas Commission shall ratify the permits at the first subsequent Commission meeting, after at least 20 days have elapsed after the permit has been administratively granted by the office of the director. Presence of applicant for the permit or his authorized representative is required at the Commission meeting when the application for a permit is ratified. In no case will the applicant’s supplier be the authorized representative. Only with special approval of the Commission, under extenuating circumstances, will the Commission allow the applicant for a permit to be represented by another party other than a principal officer, director, manager, or attorney. The formal application form(s) will be furnished by the Commission upon request.
