Natural Gas Safety - Did you know?
Natural gas pipelines are a safe and reliable way to transport energy to homes and businesses in our communities. Since most natural gas pipelines are buried underground, you may not know that you live or work close to one. To help identify their presence, yellow pipeline markers are used. These markers display the name of the pipeline operator, the material being transported and emergency contact information. Knowing the location of buried facilities is the simplest and easiest way to keep everyone safe and protect the vital utilities we rely on every day.
