FYI, the US House of Representatives now has a searchable version of the CFR on the internet with links to other relevant sites. It is not completely up to date as the CFR is constantly changing but should be good enough for your purposes. Before running down to the library, point your browser at: http://law.house.gov/cfr.htm Regards, KL s_lindblom@co*.co* (Steven Lindblom) Wrote: | | | > If the tanks are NOT stamped DOT-3AA 2400 and instead have a | >pressure rating of 200 bar, they were not appoved by DOT | >for use in the USA.
