February 9, 2013 marks the second anniversary of the deadly Allentown gas explosion which took 5 lives.
* The PA PUC has since fined UGI a maximum of $500k
* UGI – the gas company has done the following:
* Conducted a company-wide safety stand down
*Held a moment of silence to remember the 5 Allentown victims
* Agreed to accelerated replacement of cast-iron and bare steel piping systems
* The City of Allentown – has received a federal grant for pipeline safety and technical assistance
We at PROP Systems certainly think more can be done and can help. We add our prayers for the victims and all who survive them.
