Episode 7: Gas Pipeline Safety<\/h1><\/div>

[ Music ]\n[ A large title appears: \u201cGas Pipeline Safety”. A smaller title appears under it: \u201cWhat if I noticea natural gas leak?” ]<\/p>\n

>> I wanna know<\/p>\n

>> how can I tell if there\u2019s a natural gas leak?<\/p>\n

>> And what should I do about it?<\/p>\n

[ Background music. Mackenzie and Robbie stand by a colorful model of a town. Jordan walks in front of them. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Okay, ready guys? And, action! [ Silence ]<\/p>\n

[ Jordan hoists a video camera to his shoulder and points it at the other two kids. As if seen in close-up through the camera a finger appears, digging a hole in the dirt of the model town. The finger starts to reveal a yellow gas pipeline. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Excuse me, sir, I notice that you\u2019re about to dig. Did you call 811?<\/p>\n

>> Don\u2019t you mean 911? And why would I call them?<\/p>\n

>> I mean 811. They tell you what kind of underground utilities there are \u2019cause if you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re digging into, you could dig yourself into a whole lot of trouble.<\/p>\n

[ A yellow natural gas pipeline marker stands next to the hole with the gas pipe in it. The marker has a message on it: \u201cWARNING GAS PIPELINE”. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> That pipeline is full of natural gas and if you hit it, it could cause the gas to leak from its pipe, which is a major hazard.<\/p>\n

>> So what does 811 do exactly?<\/p>\n

[ A large logo appears behind Mackenzie: \u201c811 Know what\u2019s below. Call before you dig.” ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Well, they arrange to flag the buried power lines and pipelines in your digging area so that you can dig safely away from them. And they do it all for free.<\/p>\n

[ A hand places yellow flags in the grass around the hole with the gas pipe in it. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Well, I\u2019ve planted trees before, how do I know I haven\u2019t endangered us already?<\/p>\n

>> Well, gas pipeline leaks are rare, but here are the signs:<\/p>\n

[ Background music. A headline appears: \u201cGAS LEAK DANGER!” Polaroid photographs of gas leak warning signs appear as Mackenzie mentions each one. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> You might smell rotten eggs. You might hear a hissing or a roaring sound. You might see dirt being blown up into the air or a continual bubbling in the water. Or grass or plants that are dead or dying for no apparent reason.<\/p>\n

>> Well, what do we do if this is a pipeline leak?<\/p>\n

>> Well, first things first. We gotta get out of here. You don\u2019t want to use a cell phone or anything electrical for that matter. A single spark can cause a massive explosion. So let\u2019s call 911 from waycome on, Lucyfrom way over here.<\/p>\n

[ Robbie stands with Lucy and Mackenzie far away from the town model. He takes his cell phone away from his ear and puts it in his pocket. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Okay. The gas company is sending someone out right away to check for a leak.<\/p>\n

>> Good.<\/p>\n

[ Bell sound. A gas company worker appears near the kids. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> Hey, guys, thank you very much. A leak like that could have been really bad.<\/p>\n

>> Okay, so I get the whole outdoor gas pipeline leak thing but what if I smell gas in my house?<\/p>\n

[ Background music. A headline appears: \u201cIF YOU SMELL GAS”. Beneath it are photos of a light switch, candle, flashlight, matches, and cell phone, each with a universal NO symbol flashing over it. ]<\/span><\/p>\n

>> If you smell it, then don\u2019t turn on the lights, don\u2019t use a candle or a flashlight, matches, or even your cell phone, as any kind of spark can ignite the gas. So just leave and get everyone out of the house with you. You can go to a trusted neighbor\u2019s house to report the leak to your natural gas utility. They take gas leaks very seriously and they\u2019ll come out right away to fix it for you.<\/p>\n

>> Now we know<\/p>\n

>> how to recognize the signs<\/p>\n

>> of a natural gas leak.<\/p>\n

>> And what I can do to help.<\/p>\n
