Every day, Con Edison delivers natural gas safely and reliably to thousands of homes and businesses through a network of underground pipelines. Here are some tips to help everyone stay safe. Gas leaks can create fi res and explosions. It’s important that you and your family know how to recognize a gas leak and what to do if you suspect a leak. SIGNS OF A GA S LE AK • Smell – A distinctive, strong odor similar to rotten eggs. • See – A white cloud, mist, fog, bubbles in standing water, blowing dust or vegetation that appears to be dead or dying for no reason. • Hear – Roaring, hissing or whistling. WHAT TO DO IF YOU DETECT A GA S LE AK • Leave immediately and take others with you. • If you are outside, leave the area immediately. • Do not light a match or smoke, turn appliances or lights on or off (including fl ashlights), use a telephone or start a car. Doing so can produce sparks that might cause the gas to explode. • Find a phone away from the area and call 911 or 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633). You can report leaks anonymously. Their hope is to encourage additional adoptions for more animals to go home for the holidays! • Do not assume someone else will report the condition. Call even if you are in a public area. • National Grid customers should call 1-718-643-4050. • Tell us if there is a problem with your electric service. • Follow directions from emergency responders who are on site. BEFORE YOU DIG, CALL 811 There are almost 4,300 miles of underground gas pipelines in our service area. The slightest scratch, scrape, dent or gouge can result in a dangerous leak. To protect these pipelines, you must call the local one-call center at 811 two to ten days before you dig or excavate on public or private property. After you call, utility companies will mark the approximate location of their lines at no charge to you. LEARN MORE For gas safety tips, visit conEd.com/GasSafety.
