Update: Millington Avenue Gas Main Break
Friday Feb 17th, 2012
BGE is making rapid progress in restoring natural gas service to customers in the Carrollton Ridge and Mill Hill communities. Crews are moving quickly through 4 specific work zones. Once BGE has completed their work at a citizen's residence they will leave behind a notification. They will also provide Baltimore City with a list of locations where plumbers can be sent to inspect and turn on appliances. Specific plumbers will be assigned specific addresses. If a customer is not home when the plumber arrives, a hang tag with the plumber’s telephone number will be left for the customer to arrange entry for the plumber.
A plumber should arrive at a home that has received a BGE notice within 24 to 48 hours.
