  • enhance propane safety, education, and training for propane consumers and employees;

  • improve existing propane technology;

  • increase the efficiency of propane; and

  • develop other programs to educate the public about the safety, environmental aspects and uses of propane.

An industry commitment to the safety and education of Kansans.
