Gas Service Is Working to Restore Service at Burke and Osbun

Kansas Gas Service is working to restore natural gas service to customers impacted by a natural gas outage in the 900 block of Burke and Osbun in Fort Scott.

The outage is a result of a third-party damage that caused water to enter a natural gas main in the area, causing freezing conditions around regulators.

“The third-party contractor was not doing work on our behalf,” said Dawn Tripp, Kansas Gas Service Manager of Public Relations.

Reports of outages began on Wednesday, January 30, and services are being restored.

Technicians are on site monitoring and working. Customers should call 888-482-4950 if they are experiencing issues with their natural gas service.

“We’re working as safely and quickly as possible,” Tripp said.

As a reminder, if any customer suspects a natural gas leak, they should leave the area immediately, then call 911 and the Kansas Gas Service emergency line at 888-482-4950.
