Where do you dream this information up at?
From bcferries.com website
Propane Tanks
Propane valves must be closed and sealed with the tags issued at the ticket booth, and the cylinders must be upright and firmly secured, to prevent tipping.
Service repair vehicles may carry one 25kg cylinder.
RVs are permitted a maximum of two cylinders of not more than 25 kg each (50L water capacity each), provided they are connected to a regulator, and secured in or on the vehicle. Recreational vehicles may carry a third cylinder no larger than 15 kg (30L water capacity) for BBQ needs.
Passenger vehicles are permitted to carry one cylinder Bar-B-Q size (commonly called a 20 pound cylinder).
SAFETY ALERT: "The brass valve in a propane cylinder will be damaged if it comes in contact with anhydrous ammonia. This deterioration will lead to cracking of the valve body or its components and can ultimately result in a violent, unexpected expulsion of the valve from the cylinder, causing personal injury or death." See full Safety Alert for more details.
Where,oh were, does it say ANYTHING about 1lb containers, much less refilled 1lb containers.
