gas tags
indicates the building has gas service | |
a sturdy, permanent, tag or decal to put
on the front door and back alley access to
a house that says whether a house has gas
service, and where the meter/valve is. this
would be valuable in case of emergencies,
like fire, earthquake flood, etc. Right now,
in portland at least, the fire dept
has to go
around looking for the gas meter when
they respond to a call. We have a
"neighborhood emergency team" [NET]
system (just regular people who have
taken this course to respond in
emergencies by checking their
neighborhood for people who need help).
One of the main things is turning off the
gas lines, but they have to search the
properties to find the meters, Not every
house has gas service. Wastes a lot of
time, and the emergency responders
cannot be certain that the property does
not have gas service, or they just didn't
find the meter. the tags would certainly
help that.
the gas companies should be happy to get
on board with this-supply the tags, good
public service, advertising.
