Unitil provides an interactive, online natural gas emergency training program for first responders.
Firefighters, police and EMTs are typically first on the scene in a natural gas emergency and face the greatest risk from natural gas leaks and fires. We partner with our communities’ emergency response crews to ensure the safety and reliability of our natural gas and electric infrastructure. If an urgent situation arises, we educate these folks on how to safely protect people and mitigate any hazards.
The First Responder Natural Gas Safety Training Program is a self-directed, interactive online training program that provides emergency response personnel with the information they need to safely identify and respond to incidents that involve natural gas pipelines and other natural gas facilities.
