Natural Gas Pipeline Safety
This information from LG&E and KU helps emergency responders learn to safely identify and respond to incidents that involve natural gas pipelines. It includes a series of educational topics that you can complete at your own pace. These topics may also be accessed in a certification course by clicking the link above.
LG&E and KU may distribute natural gas and electricity in your department’s response area. If LG&E and KU is not the local natural gas provider or pipeline operator at an incident scene, please coordinate your gas incident response with the appropriate natural gas utility.
