A. Repairing Gas Supply System By Gas Company Personnel: No person, unless in the employ of the gas company or having a permit from the gas company, shall repair, alter, or open any service pipe, or set or remove the service meter or do any other work on any part of the gas supply system up to and including the meter. However, if gas is leaking in any part of the supply system, it shall be the duty of the person to notify the gas company to make repairs.
B. Installation By Others; Inspection By Gas Company: Any concealed part of the gas supply system up to and including the service meter, when installed by persons not in the employ of the gas company, when on the premises of a prospective consumer, shall be reported to, and shall be inspected by, the gas company before it is concealed either within the building or underground and before it is connected to the main or service pipe which contains gas.
C. Disconnection Of Service: No person, unless in the employ or having a written permit from the gas company, shall disconnect the outlet of the service meter from the building piping.
D. Installing Service Pipes Under Structures: In no case will it be allowed to run a service pipe under a building or porch, unless the same first passes through a foundation wall and the hole thus made can be sealed with cement so that it will be impossible for the gas to creep along the service line ditch and so on into or under a building. In case the building has no foundation, the service pipe shall be brought up out of the ground on the outside of the building and then into the building. (Ord. 15.28)
