CPSC, Cenex Harvest States Cooperatives Announce Recall to Inspect Propane Gas
Cenex Harvest States Cooperatives (CHS), of Inver Grove Heights, Minn.
Hazard
The propane may not have contained enough odorant to allow consumers to smell leaking gas, presenting a fire, explosion or thermal burn hazard to consumers.
Remedy
Consumers who had propane deliveries or purchased propane from these dealers since June 1, 2000, should immediately contact their propane gas suppliers or retail locations, where portable cylinders were filled to arrange for testing of the propane. The amount of odorant in the propane can be corrected on-site if the levels are found to be too low to detect by smell.
Injuries reported
CHS learned of two explosions involving propane gas in Montana, that resulted in four injuries.
Products
