Clarksville Gas & Water will observe the national Natural Gas Utility Workers’ Day on March 18, 2021. The national day of recognition was officially established in 2015 by the American Public Gas Association (APGA) and is celebrated across the country. It is a time when communities such as ours celebrate the employees who provide one of their most valuable assets—their natural gas utility.
March 18 was chosen because it’s the date of the New London, Texas school explosion in 1937 that led to an increased emphasis on safety and the widespread odorization of natural gas so it can be detected. Safety is a vital aspect to natural gas distribution and the employees of the Clarksville gas system place a high priority on providing safe and reliable natural gas service to its customers.
National Gas Utility Workers’ Day was established in 2015 by The American Public Gas Association (APGA) as a national day of recognition and is celebrated across the country each year on March 18!
