Natural gas is one of the safest and most reliable energy sources, but like any energy, it must be used responsibly. Safety doesn’t belong to one group alone - it’s a shared responsibility between utilities, regulators, and every household. By working together, we can keep our communities safe and ensure natural gas continues to power our homes and businesses with confidence.
Key Reminders for Consumers:
-
Have natural gas appliances installed and serviced by qualified professionals.
-
Learn to recognize the signs of a gas leak: the rotten egg odor, unusual hissing sounds, or dead vegetation near lines.
-
Teach your family to act quickly - evacuate and call 911 if you smell gas or hear an alarm.
-
Make natural gas alarms part of your home’s safety toolkit, alongside smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, for an added layer of early awareness.
