Gas Line Repair Fort Worth A natural gas emergency always requires a qualified, licensed, professional plumber. Never attempt gas line repair in Fort Worth yourself. If you suspect a gas leak, you should always call 911. A rotten egg, sulfur-like odor is added to natural gas to help people identify gas leaks. When you smell this odor, leave the building, and call 911 immediately once you are a safe distance away. When the emergency is over, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing can repair the problem, and…

Fire Inspectors 5 Most Common Violations Building owners and managers have a very tough job to do - from dealing with maintenance, security, tenant issues and government compliance.

I am writing this proposal to help solve the issue of funding Bartow Fire Protection District. This facility has been suffering from the low revenue and has been put into a debt. Now, this facility will be handed over and put under the jurisdiction of San Bernardino County if the citizens of the City of Barstow do not help with funding the facility’s needs. Barstow Fire Protection District needs more money so that they can repay the debt, buy more equipment, and reduce the response time. As a…

In the early 1900’s, were there legitimate ways to prevent fires like we do today? Albert Marrin’s non-fiction story, “Flesh And Blood So Cheap” uses both explicit and implicit evidence and examples in his excerpt to convey his theme that The Triangle Fire that took place in 1911 was caused by many unsafe practices and standards, which led to 146 deaths in the large fire.
