A pipeline rupture in Canada early Saturday morning is affecting a line that supplies natural gas to our customers in Wisconsin. As a precaution, we are asking our natural gas customers in Chippewa, Dunn, Eau Claire and St. Croix counties to conserve. Turn your thermostat down to 60 and avoid using natural gas appliances. Please only turn your thermostat down if doing so will not pose a danger to your health or safety. Consider using electric space heaters. Use caution to avoid overloading circuits. We expect to know more by mid-day Sunday and will update you frequently as more information becomes available. As always, your safety is our number one concern. If you smell gas or think a gas leak may be possible, first vacate the premise immediately and then call 1-800-895-2999.
