Atmos Energy Urges Homeowners and Contractors to Dig Safely
Every year in April, National Safe Digging Month is an opportunity to remind homeowners, contractors, and any professional excavator to keep communities safe by calling 811 before any digging project.
Did you know that the most common cause of outside natural gas leaks is digging or construction that disturbs natural gas pipelines? Pipelines carry natural gas around the clock to more than 76 million homes and businesses in the United States, yet we seldom notice these energy superhighways because they are underground.
Attached are a helpful flyer and social media graphics with this important “Call 811 Before You Dig” safety message, which we encourage you to share on your social media platforms – or follow @atmosenergy on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram and re-share our posts.
We also encourage everyone to become a safety ambassador and visit https://www.atmosenergy.com/safety/sign-call-811-pledge/ to sign the Atmos Energy Call 811 Pledge!
