This bill tells the Department of Homeland Security to remove certain propane tanks from a set of federal security rules called CFATS. Any propane tank that holds up to 126,000 pounds of propane would be exempt from those CFATS regulations.

Key points:

Who is affected: Owners and operators of propane tanks that hold up to 126,000 pounds of propane.
What changes: These tanks would no longer have to follow CFATS regulations set by the Department of Homeland Security.
Why it matters: It could reduce federal compliance steps for many propane tank users, potentially saving time and costs, while keeping larger tanks under existing rules.
