We know our dedicated team members may not be the first to come to mind when you think about first responders in our community; but our front line works hard around the clock – responding to urgent and emergency calls and taking swift action to ensure safety. Our teams often work alongside law enforcement officers and firefighters in cases where natural gas infrastructure is compromised, or service has or could be affected by emergency circumstances. As close partners of other first responders in the community, we truly appreciate the commitment and service of all who are the first to respond in times of need. Thank you for all that you do to ensure the safety of our communities! #NationalFirstRespondersDay
