If you smell gas – Basic Instructions
  1. NO FLAMES OR SPARKS!  Immediately put out all smoking materials and other open flames.  Do not operate lights, appliances, telephones or cell phones.
  2. LEAVE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY!  Get everyone out of the building or area where you suspect gas is leaking.
  3. SHUT OFF THE GAS.  Turn off the main supply valve on your propane tank if it safe to do so.  To close the valve, turn it to the right (clockwise).

They do not search or mark any private lines which may exist. Examples of private lines may include: Private phone lines or power lines between buildings, water or electrical lines to private wells, septic leach fields, etc. It is important that all private lines also be identified and known prior to digging.
