The severe winter weather experienced this past year has created a deeper frost level than normal. When the frost "cornes out", as milder temperatures prevail, ground movement will be greater than in other years. The Works Departments of many municipalities have warned of the damage that has already occurred to streets and paving, and that more damage will take place. Repairs to broken roads, water mains, etc., cost thousands of dollars each year and the estimates this year are greater than ever. The many miles of gas mains buried in the ground, as well as sewer networks, hydro conduits and telephone cables have been installed and maintaîned for years in accordance with the best known engineering and operating practices. All of these facilities will be subjected to pressures and movement as the ground begins to thaw. Where our new gas mains and services have been installed, refilled trenches will likely settle. Any resulting damage to lawns, walks, roads and driveways will be adjusted as quickly as weather permnits. Under these abnormal conditions the possibility of natural gas leakage is increased. The Gas Company therefore requests the assistance of all the citizens in the community in guarding against gas leaks that might otherwise go unnoticed. Gas leak detecting crews constantly patrol the area, checking streets, utility manholes, sewers and buildings. In addition to this safeguard we ask your co-operation by reporting ANY UNFAMILIAR ODOUR bo us promptly. In addition any of the following circumstances should be reported without delay: 1. Any noticeable bubbling in pools of water on the ground and streets. 2. Any odour which has no readily apparent cause, either in buildings or out of doors. 3. Any indication that your furnace, regardless of fuel, does not appear bo be operating as it should. Basement floor drains should be checked to ensure that they contain water. Sewer gases, natural gas and other combustible fumes can enter homes through basement drains if they are dry. Pour a pail of water into dry cellar floor drains b ,f111 the water traps and prevent the entry of gases. Your participation in this safety program is appreciated. Please assist us to render the best possible service by reporting ANY STRANGE ODOUR bo us quickly at any time of the day or night. .J-l 1 -1ý i
