Chesapeake Utilities Responding to Exposed Gas Lines in Snow Hill

Authorities say temporary lane closures are expected, particularly in the Church Street area, while the company performs vapor mitigation, including burning off excess gas from the lines to complete repairs. The execution of these tasks is safe and necessary, and town officials say there is no risk to the public during repair work. Repairs are expected to be complete by Friday, Jul. 10.

Snow Hill residents may see Chesapeake Utilities or Sharp Energy employees on their property delivering temporary propane tanks to maintain service. Employees will be clearly identified with company logos if they enter your property.

Anyone with questions is asked called the Town Hall at 410-632-2080.
