LOBELVILLE WATER SYSTEM
CROSS CONNECTION AWARENESS NOTICE
Over the next few weeks, the cooler temperatures will bring people outdoors to work in their yards,
finish gardening and begin getting swimming pools ready for winter. The Lobelville Water System
would like to ensure that our customers are aware of the dangers associated with these activities. A
Garden hose submersed in any liquid or attached to certain devices used to spray pesticides or
herbicides forms a cross connection. A cross connection is a situation where a possible source of
contamination is directly linked to our public water system. If the end of your hose is connected to a
chemical container, swimming pool or other contaminant during a water main break or fire, the
substance can be siphoned back into the water system. This condition, known as back siphonage,
could cause a public health hazard. Devices are available to prevent this problem; however, the best
solution is to always be careful how you use your hose.
Please help us provide a safe supply of water to all of our customers. Remember; never stick your
hose in anything you would not want to drink. For more information on cross connections and how to
protect against them, call Daniel McCoy at 931-622-3981.

ALWAYS PRACTICE SAFETY WHEN DEALING WITH NATURAL GAS
LOBELVILLE GAS SYSTEM
The National Transportation Safety Board states that pipelines provide the highest level of public safety as compared to other transportation modes. Every day natural gas pipelines safely carry one of the world’s most reliable, efficient and environmentally friendly fuels to businesses, homes and neighborhoods like yours. Preventing pipeline emergencies is important to Lobelville Gas.
We are part of this community and we’re committed to delivering natural gas safely to our neighbors. As good neighbors do, you can help, here’s how.
Though Natural gas pipeline incidents are rare, you should know these signs.
Look. Blowing dirt, bubbling water, dry spots in moist areas or dead plants surrounded by green plants may indicate a natural gas leak. Listen. If you hear a hissing sound near a gas appliance or pipe it may be natural gas leaking.
Smell. Be aware of the distinctive, rotten egg – like smell of natural gas. You should take action anytime you detect even a small amount of this odor. Don’t break the law – call before you dig. Did you know that excavation work, including digging in the yard and plowing, is the most common cause of natural gas pipeline damage. Before beginning excavation of any kind, state law requires that you call Tennessee One Call at 811 so all utility lines can be clearly marked by professionals prior to any digging. This is a free call so don’t break the law.
If you suspect a leak take these actions:
1. Leave. If you ever detect a natural gas leak LEAVE IMMEDIATELY. Don’t try to find or stop the leak.
2. Do not touch anything electrical before you leave or use a telephone, even a cell phone. Do not
smoke, turn appliances on or off or operate any vehicle or equipment that could create a spark.
3. Call. Once you are out of the suspected area, immediately call Lobelville Gas at 931-593-2285. If the smell of natural gas is strong, also call 911.
For more information on natural gas safety call Lobelville Gas at 931-593-2285
THANKS NEIGHBOR!
