Ask your propane company about permits as they'll usually handle this aspect of the installation and file all required paperwork.

Basically, a hernia is a defect in the abdominal wall that allows intestine to poke through. If the hernia becomes incarcerated (the intestine becomes strangled), then a blockage and rupture of the bowel can occur. This is life threateneing. Many people survive, but are permanently disfigured. A perforated bowel can mean months in the hospital, large portions of the bowel being removed, etc.
1. Check for hernias that occur around the stomach, abdomen, or chest. A hernia can affect different areas of your body in different ways, although a hernia in or around the stomach area may be the most common type of hernia.
