gas line bonding

[nhfire77]

When bonding a propane gas line:
(the line is buried, fed from a tank in the yard)

Is it permissible to run the grounding conductor outside the foundation of the building, in 1/2" PVC, then bond it to the service ground rod?

Reason:

This would allow the conductor from having to enter the building and shorten the run by half.


Also would 24" be the appropriate burial depth for a bonding conductor in PVC since?

It would be permissable with or without the pvc at 24"

Yea, the reason I asked is because there is a local requirement for all GEC's undergournd to be in conduit to within 1' of the ground rod, but nothing about Bonding conductors.
