National Fuel recognizes that during these unsettling times there may be instances where customers find themselves facing financial difficulties. National Fuel encourages customers to contact customer service to discuss the numerous payment assistance programs that are available. Late charges for customers impacted by this pandemic will be waived.

 To safely and actively serve our customers and employees, we have taken the following additional steps:

• Employees who are ill are required to stay home

• Necessary personal protection equipment is being provided to field crews to protect all parties

• We are limiting travel for our entire employee community

• Activating alternative work schedules and environments

As always, if you smell gas, leave fast! If a rotten-egg natural gas odor is present, leave the premises immediately and call National Fuel’s emergency line, 1-800-444-3130, from a different location. If you smell gas outdoors, call National Fuel’s emergency number and provide the address nearest to the site of the odor.
