OSHA regulates service and refueling areas under 29 USC 1926.152 (g-k). These regulatory sections contain more than 150 subsections, various formulas and at least three information tables. Leaving aside building, storage, fire control and electrical requirements, OSHA requires protecting dispensing units against collision damage. Use approved hoses and nozzles for dispensers. Provide shut-off devices away from the dispensing area. Shut off all motors while refueling. Standards prohibit open flames or smoking in areas used for fueling, gasoline receiving or dispensing areas or where servicing fuel systems for cars, trucks and other internal combustion engines.
Actually, OSHA has nothing to do with you as an RV owner refueling at a fuel pump. The "O" in OSHA stands for Occupational. OSHA covers employers and their workers not a private individual filling their gas tank. Also the standard 29 USC 1926.152 that you mentioned is for construction employers and employees.
I am with Executive...what law?
