All the more reason why attention should be paid to those 811 commercials. Make the call it could save a lot of money in fines and possibly a life.
oops, whoodonit, it blew as soon as I drove over it.....
He was lucky he wasn't roasted 100% fuel gas at the damage entry of the pipe didn't cause an ignition
I ran into a unmarked NPG pipe with a tractor and plow. Fortunaly the tractor just stopped and didn't open up the pipe. The pipe line had been put in many years ago and was note marked. Call the company and within two days the pipeline was reput down, this time 5 foot deep. The gas company could not understand how come the pipe was not put down deeper to start with. and no markers
We had a high pressure gasoline transport line cut into in the middle of a busy street in LA many years ago.
Fuel air bomb. 4 people were killed, and 6 building were destroyed. Pipeline ran under the middle of the 4 lane street divider.
Nobody checked..
A similar event not far from where I live. The leaked natural gas followed the lines into the nearby houses, found an ignition source and blew up two or three houses. A father and his toddler were taking a nap in one of them but they survived. There's a CVS there now.Quote:
