Storm Safety

Proper preparation will help your business weather any storm. If a storm is approaching your area, ensure the safety of your employees and protect your property by taking these precautions:

  • Secure your building.
  • Cover windows.
  • Cover and move equipment/furniture to a secured area.
  • If dependent on data processing, consider an alternate site.
  • Make provisions for alternate communications and power.
  • Be prepared to work with limited supplies of cash, and be without water, sewer or power for at least two weeks. Store emergency supplies at the office.
  • Employee safety comes first! Prepare, distribute and exercise your business hurricane plan for recovery.
  • Consider providing shelter to employees and their families and helping with supplies post-storm.
  • Establish a rendezvous point and time for employees in case communications are disrupted.
  • Establish a call-down procedure for warning and post-storm communications.
  • Provide photo IDs and a letter of authorization to enter the building.
  • Contact customers and suppliers:
    • Share your communications and recovery plan in advance.
    • Prepare a list of vendors to provide disaster recovery services.
 

Snow safety tips to protect your outside natural gas meters:

Make sure your meter remains visible. After a snow storm, please make sure your natural gas meter is clear of accumulated snow and ice.

  • Avoid allowing snow to completely cover your meter.
  • Never shovel snow onto or against your meter.
  • Use a broom to dust snow away from the meter; do not use a shovel.
  • Never tap or hit the meter to knock or break away snow from the meter or gas piping.
  • If your meter is completely coated in ice, or you think there is a safety concern with your meter, piping, or equipment, call our 24 hour emergency line at 1-718-643-4050 or call 911.
  • Also, remember to keep your eaves and gutters clear and remove icicles hanging from your eaves or gutters.
