What should I do if I smell natural gas, whether inside or outside?
Get away from the property or outside area immediately. Don't turn any electrical switches on or off, or use a flashlight or the telephone. An electric spark from any electrical or battery-powered device, or even from static electricity, could ignite a gas leak and cause an explosion. Call (318) 441-6911 or (318) 441-6026 from a neighbor's house or nearby area as soon as possible. Never try to locate the source of a gas leak yourself.
