May 12 CBSC meeting.
Steve Winkle was voted in as the Vice Chair.
The proposed energy amendment package to be submitted to the CBSC was
postponed till the July 21 CBSC meeting. Valerie Hall and Bill Pennington
from the Energy Commission gave a report on the proposed regulations and
the process to amend those amendments.
Rich Friedman and Chris Anderson from HCD gave a report on the automatic
gas shutoff valves for seismic and excess flow valves.
SB1992 required HCD to to consider
whether to propose the adoption of regulations mandating the installation
of seismic gas shutoff devices and/or excess flow gas shutoff devices in
all or a portion of dwelling units, motels, hotels and lodging houses. The
determination whether to propose building standards were to be made during
the annual code adoption cycle following January 1, 2003. Any proposal to
the CBSC must include an analysis of the cost and safety benefits of the
proposal. If the Department’s determination is not to propose building
standards mandating the installation of seismic gas shutoff devices and/or
excess flow gas shutoff devices, SB 1992 requires the Department to
explain in writing the rationale for its decision. The report can be
