We constantly study our gas pipeline system to be sure it meets our service Email: jbarmore@washgas.com expectationsin neighborhoods both old and new. As part of our ongoing commitment to ensure the safest, most reliable delivery of natural gas to all of our valued customers, we will be replacing portions of our pipeline system in communities across Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C. Your neighborhood is one that will benefit. The pipelines that bring natural gas into your home or business are often made of steel or cast iron. Just like other important parts of the infrastructure in our communities, such as highways and bridges, age and condition can impact their safety and reliability. While your current system has performed well, it is now time to replace the pipelines, usually with much longer lasting, specially-designed, plastic pipe.
