What Hinesville Owners Should Know

Georgia lists the International Fuel Gas Code among its mandatory state minimum construction codes, and permitting and inspection of gas work is handled by the local governments that enforce those codes. Source: Mandatory and Permissive State Codes (Georgia Department of Community Affairs)
