AND CANADIAN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND WELFARE REGULATIONS 

These federal agencies inspect registered facilities on a routine basis to assure compliance with the regulations. Failure to comply can result in possible halting of production, seizure of product, and penalties or fines and/or imprisonment. For more details on medical gas regulations, refer to Chapter 2. 

EPA regulations affect cylinder fillers because of the need to properly dispose of some gases upon return for refilling. Certain toxic gases must be released only through scrubbers or other safe disposal means, or can be recycled only when suitable quality can be assured. More detailed information regarding EPA regulations can be found in Chapter 2.
