Summary
Gas supply manufacturers/importers/repackers now must submit DOT Test Reports proving compliance with 49 CFR Parts 178 and 393.67 for gas cylinders, piping, hoses, and compressed gas system components in motor vehicles.
Why it matters
Sellers currently offering gas supply products without DOT certification documents face qualification rejection or listing removal. New DOT documentation requirement increases compliance burden and qualification difficulty for gas system component sellers.
Recommended action
If selling gas supply products, audit inventory for DOT Part 178/393.67 compliance documentation. Obtain DOT Test Reports from manufacturers before reapplying for category qualification. Resellers should verify supplier certifications match new DOT standards.
