Abstract: Like all gas companies, Michigan Consolidated Gas Company is interested in the safety of its employees and customers, Therefore, we were very concerned when we experienced two incidents where minor burns were incurred by employees and our invesligation indicated thai the probable source of ignition was gasoline powered equipmeni. We checked with other companies and found thai ihey had experienced similar incidents. In the interest of safety we considered prohibiting the use of gasoline powered equipmeni in an area where a gas-air mixture could be subject to ignition. This could immediately deny us the effective use of power equipmeni and it could prolong job time. The increase in job time could lead to a decrease in customer safety.
