Abstract: Man-operated machines rip into gas facilities unexpectedly and create uncontrolled situations that threaten public safety, as well as destroy large areas of real estate. Bulldozers, trenchers, road boarers, plows, backhoes, post hole augers and other machines are all too frequently misguided, and these powerful machines will release dangerous volumes of gas from a buried gas main or service into a structure or congested area. These man-operated machines can have a near miss and only scrape or dent the pipe but cause a stress point an exposed corrosion spot on steel pipe that may precipitate a spectacular gas emergency in the future.
