City of Falls City Celebrates Natural Gas Utility Workers’ Day on March 18

The City of Falls City will observe the national Natural Gas Utility Workers’ Day on March 18, 2024. This is the ninth year in which Natural Gas Utility Workers’ Day has been officially celebrated across the country. This day of recognition is a time when communities such as ours give recognition to the employees who provide one of their most valuable assets—their natural gas utility.

 

The official Natural Gas Utility Workers’ Day is March 18 because that is the date of the New London, Texas school explosion in 1937 that led to the widespread odorization of natural gas and an increased emphasis on safety. Safety is a vital aspect to natural gas distribution and the employees of distribution companies endeavor to make natural gas delivery as safe as possible.

 

This annual nationwide event is intended to build public awareness about the hard work done by the employees of natural gas utilities. On this day, we will also educate residents on the environmental, safety and cost benefits of using clean, reliable and affordable natural gas. The City of Falls City strives to provide access to reliable, affordable, safe energy and depend on the service of natural gas utility employees for that need.

 

The City of Falls City looks forward to continuing to bring safe, reliable natural gas into your homes and businesses. We also hope you join us in supporting natural gas as a premier energy source for our country. Natural gas can help us achieve energy security and build a more competitive economy.
