Who is responsible if there is a gas leak?
If the leak is in the gas meter or Energy Department piping after the meter, the Energy Department is responsible and the customer will be reimbursed for the amount of gas lost as a result of the leak. However, if the leak is past the meter and Energy Department piping, the customer is responsible. The customer will not be reimbursed for gas lost as a result of a leak in the customer’s piping system.
