Description
Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania Gas Outage Affecting Customers in Freedom/Economy Borough, Pa.

Canonsburg, Pa. – Approximately 4,000 Columbia Gas of Pennsylvania customers in and around Baden, Conway, Economy Borough and Freedom in Beaver County are temporarily without natural gas service. Columbia Gas shut down service as a safety precaution after Columbia Gas technicians identified an issue with natural gas introduced into the system by a third-party upstream gas supplier.

Columbia Gas is taking this measure out of an abundance of caution. The shutdown and restoration of service is expected to take several days. The issue is under investigation but nothing at this point indicates that this was intentional on anyone’s part.
A full list of streets affected by the outage can be found at www.ColumbiaGasPA.com/services/alert-center.

The safety of our customers is our number one priority. Columbia Gas technicians are in the process of turning off all gas meters in the affected area. Once that has been completed, we will restore the flow of natural gas into the system, and Columbia Gas crews will go door-to-door to perform safety checks and relight natural gas appliances. To learn more about the relight process, please visit www.ColumbiaGasPA.com/relight.

All Columbia Gas employees and contractors wear a company-issued ID badge with their photo on it.

For customers not home during the service restoration process, door hangers will be left at their homes informing them of the outage and requesting they call Columbia Gas at 1-888-460-4332 for a service technician to be dispatched to restore service to their homes.

We apologize for this inconvenience.
