Damage to a Gas Pipeline
or Meter - Safety Tips From The Gas Company
Leaking gas from any damaged pipeline or gas meter
could cause a fire, explosion, property damage and serious bodily injury.
Follow these guidelines if you encounter a leaking gas
pipe or meter:
REMAIN calm.
DON'T light a match, candle
or cigarette.
DON'T turn electrical
devices on or off, including light switches.
DON'T start an engine
or use any device, including a telephone, which could cause a spark.
IMMEDIATELY EVACUATE the area, and
from a safe location, call SoCalGas at 1-800-427-2200 24 hours a day, seven
days a week.
CALL 911 promptly after evacuating
the area if the damage results in a natural gas leak that may endanger life or
cause bodily harm or property damage.
DO NOT attempt to control the leak or repair the
damaged pipe or meter. Do not use or turn off any equipment that could cause a
spark. Motorized or electrically powered equipment or vehicles may create an
ignition source if a gas leak is present. Safely abandon any motorized or
powered equipment or vehicles. Gas leaking from a plastic pipe can create
static electricity that can ignite the gas.
