This safety awareness message is brought to you by the natural gas member

Suspect a natural gas leak?
First, move your feet!
Call once youre well
down the street!
Outside or in, detecting a natural gas leak is easy. A leaking
pipeline might make a hissing sound you can HEAR. Or, you
might SEE blowing dirt, bubbling water or an unusual area of
dead vegetation. The familiary rotten-egg-like odor you associ-
ate with natural gas is added to help you SMELL a leak from
a gas line or appliance.
Natural gas is clean, efficient and safe. Remember not to dig
on your property without first calling Ohio Utilities Protection
Service at 1-800-362--2764. And if you evr suspect a leak
walk away, right away. Once clear of the area, call your natural
gas company or 9-1-1.
