| Summary of Issue | The OOSC does not include "Hydrogen" in the gaseous fuel section. Only compressed natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas and liquefied natural gas is listed. |
| Justification or Need | Currently, CVSA inspectors conducting inspections on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles cannot place them out-of-service if a fuel leak is discovered. |
| Request for Action | As hydrogen fuel cell vehicles enter the commercial transportation market, it is crucial to establish specific out-of-service criteria for these vehicles. |
