What action should be taken when gas service by Wash Gas is necessary?

When gas service by Wash Gas is necessary, notifying the OUC (the utility company) is the correct action because they are responsible for managing gas services, including safety-related inspections and repairs. By informing them, you ensure that trained professionals assess the situation properly, as they have the tools and expertise to handle issues related to gas safely. This step helps in preventing any potential hazards associated with gas leaks or unsafe conditions.

Turning the gas back on immediately could lead to dangerous situations if there is a leak or other issue that has not been assessed. Shutting off all electric devices, although a precaution in some scenarios, does not address the necessary action regarding gas service. Waiting for a service technician to arrive is a part of the process that follows notifying the utility; however, initiating contact with the OUC is the first and most critical step to take in this situation.
