Which organization is responsible for regulating the safety of natural gas and propane?

  1. OSHA

  2. CSA

  3. EPA

  4. NEMA

The correct answer is: CSA

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) is the organization primarily responsible for developing standards related to the safety of natural gas and propane. CSA establishes safety guidelines and codes that ensure the safe installation, operation, and maintenance of gas appliances and equipment. By doing so, its standards help protect both consumers and the environment from potential hazards associated with these fuels. While other organizations, such as OSHA, the EPA, and NEMA, play important roles in their respective areas—such as workplace safety, environmental protection, and electrical standards—they do not specifically focus on the safety regulations for natural gas and propane systems. Therefore, CSA's role is pivotal in ensuring that these fuels are handled safely within the industry.
