Abstract: Odorization is not a new subject however, I believe that each of us still has something to learn about it. Our company, one of the pioneers in the field of odorization in the Southwest, began using malodorant in distributed gas during 1931 and we are still learning about odorization. On May 17, 1937, the State of Texas passed its first gas odorization law, which required odorization of all gas used for private or commercial use, including public buildings, and made the Railroad Commission their law enforcement agency. In I968, the Office of Pipeline Safety made odorization mandatory in all states by adopting the ASA B31.8 Code as their interim standard until their own standards could be written. In November, 1970, the Office of Pipeline Safety published their own regulations, which superseded the ASA B31,8 Code and under which we now operate.
