You've already answered your own question, and so have others several times already.

As for a law, and trust me, there's a similar one for every jurisdiction. For an example, California's Statutes, at 18871.5 states;
"(b) A recreational vehicle that does not bear a label, an insignia, or an insignia of approval, as required by subdivision (f) or (g) of Section 18027.3, may not occupy any lot in a park unless the vehicle owner provides reasonable proof of compliance with ANSI Standard No. A119.2 or A119.5 depending upon whether it is a recreational vehicle or park trailer....."

A tent doesn't meet any of those "RV" standards, yet campgrounds let tenters in all the time...not sure that a cargo trailer with "camping gear" would be much different.
Yes, I know, tents don't have "installed" gear, but where exactly is the line?
Can anyone quote/link an actual law restricting campsites to "certified" vehicles only? Not saying they don't exist, but...a "rule" in a private campground is not the same thing as a "law".

humm..... are there ANY STATE or FEDERAL laws that require a trailer to be certified in order to enter or use a federal, state, county or local campground??
Most/ALL states require certification to be registered as a travel trailer, not aware of any limitations on use.

I hope you only plan on boondocking or otherwise dry camping with it.
Very few if any parks will let you in with a homemade rig unless you've gone the extra mile to get it certified.
Does a park/campground have the right to prohibit entry for lack of certification? Absolutely.

I want to hard pipe a quick connect line under the trailer to connect my firepit and/or gas grill.
I have done some reading and I think I understand the working of the propane system, stage 1 (tank to pipe) reduced pressure to around 10-15 psi and stage 2 (pipe to appliance) reduces pressure further to .5 psi.
My question is this, is the 10-15 psi first stage a readily available part? Am I way off base with my understanding? I know I cant run the .5 psi gas to my quick disconnect line as I will then need to remove my regulator on the appliance (which renders it useless anywhere else).
Any help would be appreciated.

What or who determines legal anyway?
Maybe the RVIA certification label which is a joke and not required to begin with?
